I came out with three small things but overall I'm pretty happy.
First off I bought The Orly mini holiday collection
Let me start by saying I've never used Orly products before so therefor I just bought the minis
- It's three Nail polishes in a candy cane container
- OUI- a dark purple base with what looks to be green and gold shimmer
- MA CHERIE-a bright yellow based red
- ANDROGYNIE- blackened green with multi glitters
I haven't tried out the colors yet but I fully intend to this weekend and post up a little review.
EDIT January 21: I love MA CHERIE, it's a perfect bright red that is very opaque. I found a dupe though so I intend to keep this mini bottle just for cuteness value
I love OUI as well but don't find many times when the color really gets usage.
ANDROGYNIE turned out to be the dud of the group.. It need a base coat of black and the glitter is very sparse :/
I also have a better dupe for this that I love.
Next up it a Color Club scented polish named ORNA-MINTED
It's small and large silver glitters in a clear base.
As the name implies, when it dries it smells minty, but a sweet mint in my opinion.
I believe it would make a great topcoat but alone I feel it doesn't have enough glitter
EDIT January 21st: I fell in love with this as well over the holidays.
It simply makes every manicure look just more interesting.
I will admit smelling it will cause odd stares but it smells pleasant... Don't judge
Finally, Sally girl sparkle effect in LAVISH LAVENDER
It's a thick cut lavender glitter with teal and aque glitters mixed in.
Overall I like the Sparkle Effects on top of a shadow with a sticky base.
This one is actually my third one and my favorite so far
EDIT January 21st: I just don't use glitter very often and I feel bad about it...
I want to use it more but it's such a pain to get on and then take off.
