The Makeup Case

Orly has done it again! I swear this nail polish company are dead set awesome! Each time they create amazing new colours I fall in love and this time I have fallen hard, head over heels, I must have all the time love. A love that I will not be ending anytime soon, if I have it my way.  The polish that I am loving sick is named Artificial Sweetner and is one of 6 new colours in the Cool Romance Collection.

Cool Romance is packed with elegant colours designed for the Autumn months. The range features a muted palette of classy pastels and strong metallics, perfect for Autumn and a wonderful and welcomed change from all the summer brights and bolds. What is so fantastic with Cool Romance is that the colours are so wearable and can easily transition from a night on the town to brunch with the girls.

I like to think of Artificial Sweetner as a grown up girls pink polish. The perfect pink for us girls in our late 20′s and 30′s who still want to whip out our fluro pink but don’t want to look like Lyn Spears. Artificial Sweetner adds that touch of class and elegance to the pink colour palette and because of its dusty pink colour it goes with absolutely any outfit, mega bonus points! I have been wearing this treasure on my fingers for the last 4 days and have had no fading and only a slight amount of chipping, pretty good considering all the house work I have been doing (such a boring thing to admit). I applied two coats of colour and one coat of a clear top coat. I know this is going to be one of my staple colours for this coming Autumn.

One of the things I love about Orly polishes is the out of this world Gripper Cap (its won awards, don’t you know?), it makes applying polish so easy and precise. And another bit of trivia for you, all of Orly colours are ’3-free’ from harmful chemicals, Formaldehyde / Formaldehyde Resin and Toluene. How rad is that?

RRP: $18.95 for 18ml. Available on shelf from April 2012.
