Orly's Act Your Shoe Size



Here is 2 coats of an almost frosty brown. It looks like melted milk chocolate. I don't know if it is a color I'll wear that often though.

Sephora O.P.I. 212




Here we have Sephora 212, a perfect Fall color. This is 3 coats. It starts off quite sheer but builds quickly. I love the flecks of bronze, which actually looks red in certain lights. I actually kept this on for a week with no chips.

China Glaze Dreamsicle



Here you have another China Glaze glitter polish: Dreamsicle. This is 3 coats. I think I will prefer to use it as a layering polish. I like it, I just don't know if it suits me on it's own.

Milani Sparkling Blue



Not much of a creative name, but it sure is pretty. It's also not a fall color, but it took forever for my CVS to get anything of the newer Milani's. I do think I would have been better off getting the non-glitter version. The glitter just doesn't add much to it.

Heading out of town for the holidays so no more posts for a few days.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with family, laughter, and lots of great food.

FInger Paint's Icy Iris


\
Here's Icy Iris from Finger Paints latest holiday collection. I can't remember if this was 2 or 3 coats, as I swatched them a week or more ago. I do love it though. It's a shimmery purple that really shines. The application was a little sloppy, but that was more my lack of attention than it was product performance. All in all a winner.

Decked With Dazzle



Here is one of the newer Finger Paints. It's a holiday collection. Decked With Dazzle is a pinkish purplish shimmery foily kind of polish. This is 3 coats. I had zero application problems. Next up will be the Icy Iris from the same collection. Those were the only two I bought.

Opulent Cloud

Once upon a time, a cosmetic company created a nail polish that was so unique and beautiful they called it Opulent Cloud. They released pictures into the wild and the people rejoiced. They searched high and low to obtain this beauty, but alas, only a few retailers felt the love, and many mourned. Until one unexpected day. Lo, it had arrived and it was lovely. Even if it didn't go with all skin tones. (Like mine.)

Outdoors in the shade.

Out doors in the sun.

In sunlight.

Is it grey? Most of the time. But it is also sometimes a shimmery greenish-grey, with some gold and lavender. It reminds me of dark stormy clouds at the time of a sunset. I used 3 coats here. This is day 2 so there is some minor tip wear.
