Orly - Ingenue

This is my third polish from the Soiree collection by Orly, see my others Here. I wasn't actually going to get it, but it came from a birthday present, and boy am I glad it did.
This has the same golden shimmer as Oui, only Oui has a purple undertone and this one is pink.

I got one of the limited bottles with a nailfile!
The color goes from pink to gold to orange to cobber. I even see some hint of green in there! So pretty. Other blogers have been saying that there are tons of dupes out there, like OPI Rally Pretty Pink or Zoya Faye. But if you don't have those then you definitely need this one! I used 2/3 coats with Linda Johansen speedy top coat over.



And for those of you who don't know it, and Ingenue is a character in theather, film or books who is a girl or a young woman who is endearingly innocent and wholesome. And when that is said, I really don't associate this color with innocence

Orly - Sweet Peacock

This is my second polish from the Birds of a feather collection. My other is Fowl Play.
It's a electrick blue and silver foil color. I love wearing it, it really sparks up my nails! Blue is a very attention seeking polish color so I wouldn't wear it if you want something mellow and toned down!

Nice application and opaque on two coats. It dried very quick, I use Linda Johansens Speedy top coat, But I still think the actual nail polish has a lot to say for the drying time.
I decorated with some yellow fimo flowers

When removing it the blue disappears first and leaves most of the silver, kinda cool:

This is after removing some of the polish and peeling of the fimoflower

Orly - Fowl Play

This beauty is from Orlys Birds of a Feather collection. I got this one and Sweet Peacock from the collection, and everywhere I've read about it they say that this is the star of the bunch.
And they are right, it sure is beautiful.

It's a bunch of duochrome flakies in a sheer darkpurple base. It reminds me a lot of Nfu Oh #51.  In the bottle I can see both yellow and green, but unfortunately only the yellow shows on the nail, no green. Along with the flakis it also has small blue glitters.

This one was on the thin side, so needed three coats, but thats opaque enough. It dried very quickly.

Very happy with Fowl play! Will be wearing it a lot.
