Orly: Space Cadet

lyra — Wed, 08 Dec 2010 03:09:52 +0000

Hi!

I simply had to buy the Space Cadet from Orly Cosmic FX collection. I think this one it the most interesting color in the collection. It’s like a chameleon and it gives so many different colors! It doesn’t look good while in the bottle but once you apply it to the nails it’s real killer. I’ll let the pictures talk for themselves.

I also took more photos of the Galaxy Girl.

Have a nice day!

Orly: Shine + OPI: Paris Couture For Sure + Konad

lyra — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 23:24:29 +0000

Orly Shine is pure silver color with shimmery foil finish. Like Luxe this one is also super sparkly. It takes two coats to achieve full coverage.

Orly Shine:

I wanted to go over the top with the shine so I added two layers of OPI Paris Couture For Sure Top Coat. At this point my nails were holographic and ridiculously sparkly. I couldn’t take my eyes of them.

*****

To finish it off I added the Konad design from image plate m50 with a black polish. I have to say I love this mani very much on my nails.

Have a nice time!

Orly: Luxe + Barry M: Instant Nail Effect

I love this gold polish! Orly Luxe: nice warm gold color packed with a lot of silver metallic micro-glitter. The result is super sparkly look with a foil-like finish. It’s well pigmented so it’s opaque in one coat! This is really an eye-catching color.

Because I like black’n'gold combinations I added a coat of Barry M Instant nail a.k.a. crackle polish. I wanted to keep the matte finish of crackle polish so I applied a top coat prior to the coat of crackle.

Orly: Cosmic FX Collection

lyra — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 19:56:54 +0000

Hi!

I bought in my opinion three of the most attractive shades from the Orly Cosmic FX collection. They are limited edition. These polishes have a glass flecked finish which gives the polishes a lot of depth and the duochrome effect.

Let’s start with the Lunar Eclipse. It is very bright electric blue color, that flashes purple from some angles. It’s stunning! It’s opaque in two coats.

******

Out Of This World: deep purple base with purple, blue and golden shimmer flecks. It needs two coats for full coverage.

*****

Galaxy Girl: it’s nice deep vine-reddish purple base with turquoise and dark red shimmer flecks. This one give a little vampy look with a modern touch. Love it! Two coats for coverage.

*****

I think Orly nailed it with this collection. The colors are really attractive and eye-caching. I love this glass flecked finish. The formula is great – like almost all of Orly’s polishes. The amount of polish in the bottle is huge. I’m thinking of buying one more shade

Orly: Snowcone + Konad

lyra — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 06:13:20 +0000

Hi!
Today I have done a manicure, which I really like. I hope you will like it to. This one is kind of springy.
For the base I used Orly Snowcone from Spring Sweet Collection, and then I stamped on flowers from Konad image plate m69, with Essence Deep Blue Sea. I really like how it turned out.

Have a nice time! Lyra*

ORLY Sweet Colection for Spring 2010

lyra — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 06:27:28 +0000

Hello everyone!!

Today I was so happy, beacuse I got my first Orly polishes.
For the first time I decided to buy the entire Sweet Colection, beacuse latley
i really like creme pastel colors.

Each of these polishes came with a mini lipgloss in a matching color and each one
smels different too

As a first time Orly user I must tell you that I’m impresed.
The formula is really good, I had trouble only with one shade, but I manage it.

I really like the colors in that collection. I think it goes right after China Glaze’s
Up & Away. This is the second one, the third one is from Essie.

****

Lemonade: Lemonade is light pastel yellow. When I put it on my nails, it reminds me of China Glaze-Lemon Fizz.
I will do the comparison of all the yellows I own soon.
I have a little trouble with this one, beacuse it’s a little bit sticky and streaky.
This is after two coats.

Cotton Candy:Cotton candy is a light peachy pink. Verry cute color. Aplication was nice and smooth.
This is after two coats.

Pixy Stix:Pixy Stick is bright medium pink creme. The formula of this one is fabolous! It was
like a butter. This is also after two coats.

Lollipop:Lollipop is creme lavender color wit a splash of pink. This one is very pigmented and I
could almost have gotten away with one coat, but I used two.

Gumdrop:Gumdrop is medium turqoise creme. This one isn’t minty. It’s more green than blue.
This is after two coats.

Snowcone:Snowcone is really nice cornflower blue creme. I like this one the most. This one is very opaque
and it need only one coat! And it’s not streaky at all.
