Rock the World

good morning! today i have my favorite polish from Orly's new collection, Rock the World. this is a stunning shade for fall, with some magenta purple hues and tons of gold glitter specks. it's just the right amount of muted glam for me! i got this polish at Sally Beauty Supply for $7.99 and i think it's most certainly worth it. without any further ado- here's the swatches!







i used 2 coats Orly Rock the World for these pictures, no top coat needed! the polish dried in minutes with a smooth, glossy finish, despite the glitter! when i did use a top coat, it did not eat the polish as i expected.

that's all for now! xo!

add and abstract these polka dots!

its absolutely, one hundred percent acceptable to be instantly jealous of this manicure. i started with one thick coat of Barielle polish in Do Unto Others. this shade is a wonderful, creamy rich Tiffany blue, which i discovered thanks to The PolishAholic. this was my first time working with Barielle nail polishes, and i have to say that while i liked the brush and the bottle size, it was a little difficult to apply. it tended to be a on the streaky side, though the thick soft texture of the polish pretty much makes up for this. after Do Unto Others was dry, i used my new Orly Dotter Duo to make different sized polka dots using Finger Paints in Add and Abstract. i topped my work of art with China Glaze Fast Forward top coat and called it a day! happy manicuring everyone :)
