Oooh, this is so pretty!! Orly Snow Angel, part of their Winter 2023 collection. This is such a pretty cream! It has just a touch of blue? Gray? The formula was great, no issues at all. It’s almost like a super duper pale pale blue? Like when snow kind of gets that glittery frosty crust… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday Orly Snow Angel
This Essie is so pretty! And it’s a cream! Essie Secret Story This is a very jelly formula, isn’t it such a pretty color! And even though this is three coats, you can see a bit of vnl.

I love black polishes, and this one from Color Club is so pretty! Especially when I have shorter nails. This has some silver shimmer running through it. I only had to do two coats, the formula was fine. I got this when they did their $1 mystery polishes. Just always really love a black polish!… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Color Club Showtime and Orly On a Whim
I typically don’t do jellies, but these came in the Kelli Marissa x Orly Halloween collab, so I tried them out! First up, Oasis Jelly. Three coats and it’s a touch patchy. I’m sure if you do jelly sandwiches that patchiness goes away. Teal isn’t my favorite color, but it is a good Halloween color.… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Kelli Marissa Jellies

I got the Orly x Kelli Marissa Halloween collab because….bats. I didn’t know they would offer that polish separately, ultimately, but no matter, I like the whole thing! The jellies- and then the glitters! Then I got a Loud Lacquer order- they had a deal where if you ordered like $20 worth of product, you… Read More Nail Mail Kelli Marissa Halloween 2022 and Loud Lacquer
So I’ve had these Orlys for awhile, and I decided to try them alone and with the Lisa Frank topper!! So here we go. First up is Orly Vintage. This is such a pretty color. Is it turquoise? Mint green? Almost a Tiffany blue with a touch of green? Aqua? I’m not sure, but it’s… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- a bunch of Orlys!
Orly Kaleidoscope was one of the Electric Escape Summer 2021 collection. I got several of these, and I thought this would be the one I liked the least, but I really really liked this. Such a pretty pretty color. And the formula was great! For a cream polish, this is just amazing. I can’t wait… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Orly Kaleidoscope
So this was a great summer mani! Orly Artificial Orange, from their Electric Escape Summer 2021 collection. Phew, that’s bright! It’s a cream, and it had a bit of a tricky formula, but worth the effort. It was quite opaque, but did need two coats. It’s a great neon orange! I have really been enjoying… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Orly Artificial Orange

Then I got Orly Vintage (how… Read More Nail Mail Transdesign
