Rose gold nail polishes have been a big trend for the Fall and Winter! I have three polishes that are in the same color family but all differ in their own unique way.

The pictures may not pick it up but OPI Designer De Better has copper flecks in it. Sally Hansen Time To Shine has subtle silver shimmer. ORLY Rage is a smooth, metallic finish.
How do you feel about the rose gold nail polish trend? What is your favorite trend for the Fall and Winter?
There are some polishes I get and think, "Why didn't I get this sooner??" ORLY Rage is definitely one of them! I have heard so much about this color and have only recently got it on eBay. It is a gorgeous rose-gold metallic polish.
ORLY Rage- This polish is perfect in two coats, the picture seems to show it as a gold but it definitely has the rose tint to it.
(P.S. Excuse the mess that is my vanity!)
What's polish are you currently wearing? What is on your polish wishlist?
I'm sure we all have a list of makeup items we want to get and if we had a few extra zeros in our bank account would run out and get all of them! I got this blogpost idea from Sandra, who's blog I LOVE! So here are the items I have been oogling at:
Too Faced Romantic Eye Palette- this looks like an amazing spring time palette. I'm sure you all have caught on that I'm in love with my Neutral palette and this would be a nice addition.
Too Faced Naked Eye Palette- as I was deciding if I should get the Romantic palette, I started wanting this one! I know it's all neutrals and I probably have dupes in my collection but a neutral palette is just not something I can pass up (or not drool over!).
Estee Lauder's Double Wear Foundation- This was on Sandra's list too. I have hear so many amazing things about this foundation! Namely, I have heard that people mix this with their foundation to make it last all day. As much as I love NARS Sheer Glow, I do have the problem of it not lasting through my 13 hour days.
Orly Confetti Nail Polish- Oh, come on! Did you really think I wouldn't add in a polish? This polish is no where to be found! It's a sheer light pink. I'm sure I don't NEED it but the fact that it's so elusive makes me want it even more. I know it was mentioned in the Kardashian book so that's why it's probably all sold out. I think they have it on the ORLY site but I don't want to pay shipping for one polish lol
What's on your makeup wishlist? Do you have any of these products and think they are must haves? Let me know!
I know I'm MONTHS late with this ORLY collection. I considered getting a few colors from this collection but was hesitant as it's $10 on transdesign. Luckily I had won the entire collection from the ORLY twitter! I was so excited to get it (nail polish addiction being fed!) and I want to share with you guys swatches so that you can maybe decide if you want any of the colors.
Swatches:
Halley's Comet- this is a gorgeous mermaid-y blue/green color. The depth is absolutely amazing and in a word, it's: GORGEOUS! However, not too unique (spoiler to the next pic). This was two coats.
Zoya's Charla is a dead on dupe for ORLY's Halley's Comet. I swatched them side by side in this picture to compare. Index and ring finger- Charla, Middle and pinky finger- Halley's Comet. Can you even tell the difference? If you have one you definitely don't need the other.
Lunar Eclipse- Ah, hello royal navy/purple prettiness. This is a beautiful color and I love blues so I definitely love this one. However, I do not love that it's on the sheer side. This needed three coats.
It's Not Rocket Science- This is an olive-y yellow/ green. It's my least favorite color wise just because I hate those puke-y green colors. That is just my personal preference in terms of color. The formula was good, though, and it only needed two coats.
Space Cadet- This is a red/green/gold color. It's more green and has a red shine to it. This was also sheerer and needed three coats. According to temptalia, it is a dupe for MAC's Mean & Green from the Venomous Villians collection.
Out Of This World- This is a deep purple with some gold shimmers in it. It's one of those deep, dark fall/winter colors. This was two coats.
Galaxy Girl- This is a gorgeous purple that has a red shine to it, it's another dark fall and winter color. According to temptalia, this is a dupe for MAC's Formidable nail polish from the Venomous Villians collection.
Overall, the collection is STUNNING. I realize I used "gorgeous" a lot in the descriptions but the colors truly are! Some of them have an amazing duochrome-y shine to them that makes them so beautiful. There are some MAC Venomous Villians dupes that are great if you missed out on the collection or just didn't want to pay for the MAC (as the ORLY is cheaper).
I mentioned these nail polishes in my recent video where I show a "mail haul". I'm a weirdo and LOVE getting packages in the mail. That's part of the fun of online shopping for me, opening the packages! There's soemthing about it that it feels like opening a gift (when I might have just bought it for myself hehe)
Here is my latest video where I show various things I've gotten in the mail recently. Some thing are from blogsales (can't resist blogsales! lol), some are twitter giveaway prizes, and a gift from a sweet friend!
Did you get anything from the ORLY Cosmic FX collection? Is anything catching your eye? And are you a mail loving weirdo like me? lol
I'm an NYC girl that loves makeup, fashion, and anything in between. I love sharing my thoughts with people that have the same passion as me! Happiness should be found anywhere, especially in the little things.
