Another Orly Polish?

I actually have a ton of photos of today's polish, but I'm only gonna post a few because it didn't feel like this polish was worthy of pic spam. I like the color, but it's just average to me.

Orly Gilded coral is a peachy nude with gold shimmer. I have an obsession with nudes, so I had to get this polish. If you're fair-skinned, this may lean more peach to a point where it looks like a light coral on you. I can't remember how many coats I used but I want to say it was 3 because I remember it being sheer.

Ok, that's enough photos. If you want to see more photos of this polish, you can see them here in my flickr account. 

Is this polish up your alley or totally not your style? Let me know in the comments!

Happy  Polishing,

Zoya Zara

Hello ladies...imagine me saying that in Demitri Martin's voice. If you don't know who that is, google his Jokes with Guitar routine. I'm pretty sure you'll love it. Anywho, I bring another Zoya purple to you today, but today it's not a creme! Zoya Zara was on my wishlist for a while and I bought it during the Zoya Earth Day Exchange Promo this year! It is on the sheer side, but I noticed that's common for Zoya polishes with this finish. The formula is really thin, and a little runny to me, so be careful not to flood your cuticles. It took me three coats to get to opacity, but if you have longer nails, you may need 4 or more. No topcoat in the pics below.

No idea why my camera made it appear to have bald patched on my ring and pinky nails. I told you guys the polish was sheer! 

Shimmah!!!!

I'm a sucker for anything with gold shimmer, so of course I love this polish, regardless of how thin it may be!

Happy Polishing,

Milani 3D - Part 1

Today, I bring to you 2 polishes from the Milani 3D holographic collection, Hi-Res and 3D.

Hi-Res is a blue-toned purple with holographic particles throughout. It looks great, but I hate the formula. It has that soft squishy feel where it feels like it never dries, even with topcoat. If you apply really thin layers, it helps, the feeling doesn't go away. Be sure to wear top coat with this or it will chip in a matter of minutes.

Milani - 3D

3D is a gold that I don't care for. It feels even softer than Hi-Res, and it never completely dried on me. I'm not a big fan of the color, and it just doesn't appear that holographic. To me, it appears more metallic than holographic. This applied very lumpy and I had a hard time getting it smooth. On my ring finger, the polish globbed up near the tip of my nail. I most likely will get rid of this color.

So far, I'm not a fan of this collection. How do you feel about this collection?

Happy Polishing,
