Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you are enjoying your day with friends and loved ones. We had our family Thanksgiving early last weekend so today is just a relaxing day for me. I'm likely to do some online shopping today and maybe early tomorrow before I head out to work, that is if I can get up that early. I'm too chicken to go out there in the cold and hustle with the crowd at 5 am in the morning, lol. I know I won't make it alive.
Aurora is a sheer and milky nail polish with lots of iridescent gold and purple shimmers. It's one of those polishes that you would typically want to use for layering. It's not too thick or thin but it is jam packed with gold and pink shimmers which seems to overpower the color underneath and give it a frostier finish. Not really feeling it at this point. Personally, I would prefer that the shimmer aren't so dense so that it will enhance the base color rather than take over it. I think Aurora would be best paired with a light pastel color.
On the swatches below I did one coat over Orly Purple Poodle.
Price: $12.50
Availability: Sephora
Absolutely spectacular! I haven't seen this at sephora here yet or maybe because I try to never step into any here so I don't go broke! But these formula x polishes look so unique and amazing! I'd love that over a black, charcoal or teal!!
ReplyDeletePerhaps you will find them soon since they are pretty new.
DeleteThat looks really pretty! I don't like sheer polishes like this as a rule but they're awesome toppers.
ReplyDeleteI chickened out on the Black Friday sales and did all of my deal-nabbing online, LOL. Between working and all of the other stuff going on already on Friday, standing in line didn't appeal to me.
Certain sheer polish are meant to be used as toppers and I don't mind them. They can be fun. I too didn't want to bother with the crowd and waiting in line. Thank God for online shopping!
DeleteYou are so good at layering polishes! This looks so beautiful and yeah, black friday is hard o_o you gotta be super commited lol
ReplyDeleteThank you. I just can't put up with the crowd and long line lol.
