Orly Stone Cold

Hello, gorgeous! Stone Cold is the other polish I wanted from Orly's Mineral FX collection, and I picked it up yesterday.


I'm not sure what to call this finish. It's kind of like a glass fleck, but it's really more like very, very small flakies.


The formula is a little odd. It started off really good, but it started feeling oddly goopy by the time I got to my second hand. I think I'll add a little thinner to it next time I use it and see if that helps.



It dried totally smooth for me, which is nice. I was kind of expecting it to have a rough finish, but it's smooth with just one coat of top coat, yay!



Kind of running out of things to say here. *Derp* It's beautiful. Get it!



Macro!


And a comparison with Orly Sweet Peacock and Orly Lunar Eclipse. It's not a dupe to either of those. It does remind me a bit of Lunar Eclipse, but without the purple flash - and it's actually got much more shimmer too.



Hope the comparisons help you guys! As always, thanks for stopping by!

    Thanks for the comparison! I have Lunar Eclipse, and I think this is similar enough that I won't be getting it. But it looks beautiful, for sure!

    @imfeelingnail-venturous It's such a great polish!

    @Solveig Yeah, I think if you have Lunar Eclipse, you only need this one if you're as crazy as me. =)

    Wow! This looks awesome! Is removal hard since it's like little flakies? Thanks for the comparison! It's good to know that there are no dupes (:

    @Pris I kind of let the cotton balls with acetone sit on the polish for a bit before I tried to take it off. It was harder to remove than regular polish, but not as bad as glitter.
