I love orange. A lot. I don't know what it is but I think it really compliments my nails. Maybe I just like the pop it gives. It just works. So I have been sporting a whole slew of orange lately. I have still been mixing it up of course or else I would be bored and I do not want to get sick of my beloved oranges. Here are a few of them:
Color Club - Tangerine Scream - I wore this to a Syracuse football game. Being that they are the "Orangemen", this got a lot of attention.
Color Club - Wild and Willing - I love this shimmery burnt orange duochrome. It flashes green, yellow and a rose gold. The only problem with it is that it needs 4 coats.
Misa - Speed of Life
L'Oreal - Sizzling Tangerine
LA Colors - Shock
OPI - Totally Tangerine
Petites - Passion Orange
Claire's - Orange Neon
China Glaze - Orange Marmalade - I love the glass fleck shimmer. It does settle though so you have to mix well before you use it. And it's pretty thin. I needed 3 or 4 coats.
Santee - Neon Orange
OPI - Hungary For My Honey
LA Colors - Force
Cosmo - Bus Route #1 -I love this bizarre neon yellow-orange. It looks like a bus! Or a neon yellow street sign.
Sinful Colors - Courtney Orange
What do you think of orange nail polish?

They are so pretty, I can't even decide which are my favourites. I don't have a lot of orange polishes, though, as they don't suit me that well. I feel much more comfortable in green and teal.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a HUGE orange fan but,I think I like the Misa color the best.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful swatches; I want them all!
ReplyDeleteSo that you know, I changed the url to my blog (Naive Nails) and it messed up and didn't update anyone for posts or blogrolls. The new url is http://naive-nails.blogspot.com/ :)
I love the color in itself but I don't own any orange polish nowadays. I have when I was a teenager but it doesn't compliment my skin tone very well. Wearing orange is not easy! That said Sinful Colors - Courtney Orange is a little beauty! If I had to pick one, that'd be this one. :)
ReplyDeleteIt does look great on you. How many coats was Totally Tangerine? Despite my best efforts I could not make mine go opaque!
ReplyDeleteIf you love orange, you neeeeeed Zoya Gabrielle. Check it out... http://helensheenie.wordpress.com/2009/09/14/opi-totally-tangerine-meets-zoya-gabrielle/
I have an orange Illamasqua that I need to do but have been putting off as isn't a "me" colour. But I'm working on it!
I love orange! It totally should not work with my skin tones, but I love the ones I can wear. (I've got Speed of Life on the way, I can't wait!)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful polishes. Each so different. I'll have to wear some orange. I haven't worn any yet. I do have many oranges. I love Wild and Willing.
ReplyDeleteHotcha Hotcha! Love the oranges! Tangerine Scream is one of my all time favorite oranges!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI wore so much orange in October! I have auburn hair so I love orange polish. You have featured so many here I haven't had a chance to try. Wild and Willing is a gorgeous duochrome. I may have to seek out Hungary for my Honey too! You wear orange beautifully!
ReplyDeleteI looove your nails :))
ReplyDeleteOrange really compliments them!
I'm also a huge fan of orange - but for me this is a totally summer color. Anyway my Orange marmelade is somewhere on the way...can't wait to get it

ReplyDeleteI love orange nail polish. I have six of them. One of my favorites is KleanColor's Twinkly Sunrise (222). It is a dense chrome orange peach with copper glitter. Your image above has induced me to try Courtney Orange by Sinful Colors. Next time I am at Walgreen's, I'll buy it.
