Originally I had thought that the glitter in this polish was an orange holo, similar to it's green cousin, Monster Mash. Another difference in the two is the duochrome microshimmer, Monster Mash has a sheer green jelly base. The shimmer is a nice addition but I think I would have preferred a plain orange base. Same with the hex glitter, orange holo glitter would look better when layered over a darker colour in my opinion. I had actually planned to do this but the pink shimmer was too prominent and the glitter was not orange enough for me, it didn't remind me much of Halloween which is what I was going for.
I used a peelable base coat (see this post for more info) to remove the glitter easily when I decide to change my polish. Over the base I applied two thick coats of polish to active the look in my photos. I used the blobbling method of applying glitter polish to get a nice thick even coat. For high shine and to accelerate drying time I finished this mani off with a coat of Seche Vite.
omg, this looks sooo pretty! i guess I should start crossing my fingers that this will still be available when they go on clearance...*fingers crossed* xD
ReplyDeleteI was in Sally's the other day and the display looked untouched! it must be the price, these are more expensive than core line Orly's. Don't forget to use a coupon when you go ;) there is one floating around for $10 off a $20 purchase for the rest of October, that is what I used.
Delete<3 this!
ReplyDeleteoh how I wish Orly was available in the UK :(
Aww, I didn't know it wasn't available there. Maybe you can find it on eBay or an online retailer?
Deletewhoa! the promo pics don't do this justice, it's awesome!
