Hi everyone! Today’s manicure starts out with Quo by Orly Always Chic. This is the exact same polish as Orly Beautifully Bizarre from the new Spring 2016 Melrose Collection.
Always Chic is a pink tinged white with loads of green shimmer. The formula was odd. I added a bit of nail polish thinner, but the formula was still thick yet streaky. I did 3 coats which covered most of the streaks, but I could still see some, then I got bubbling either from a too thick third coat or my topcoat. Blah!
So I added 1 coat of Sally Hansen Hidden Treasures to my index, ring and pinky and 1 coat of Essie Shine Of The Times on my middle finger. These are both red, orange, green flakies. They look identical to me on this white/pink color. The Essie may be just a little more concentrated. Unfortunately, they are both discontinued and kind of hard to find. Then I added a coat of matte topcoat. I love the look of opals on my fingers.
Quo by Orly Always Chic AKA Orly Beautifully Bizarre, 3 coats plus topcoat.
