Swatch: Orly - Sunglasses at Night

Orly Sunglasses at Night is part of the Flash Glam FX collection. All of the polishes in this collection are really different, designed to be layered over the top of another polish. I think that they are quite similar to a lot of indie polishes which are out there.

Difficult to photograph, shown over ELF Black.

Sunglasses at Night is basically a holographic strand polish in a sheer grey base, perfect for layering over black. Was a bit of a pain to work with as any bar glitter type polish is, that was because the bits of glitter were extending past the end of the nail. Really like Orly polishes as the bottle has a rubberised lid which makes it so easy to open.

Nails are the same as clothes, if you look at any fashion show chances are no one is going to wear the outfits.  Designers take bits from fashion shows and turn them in to something wearable, in this case the nails aren't wearable this is just a recreation of something from the catwalk.

I used two coats of the polish and its wonderfully pigmented, 3 free, not animal tested, great bottle shape, brush is standard.
