Orly Space Cadet

**First things first! This is a reminder to ENTER MY FRANKEN CONTEST AND GIVEAWAY RIGHT NOW!!!!! Or I will be really depressed because no one loves me!***

My Ulta is not exactly on top of new collections. They have had the OPI Shrek collection for... well... quite a while. I think they just finally got it cleared out about a month ago. So it's no surprise that they still have some polishes from Orly's Cosmic FX collection. These are much loved among the polish community, and I grabbed the most interesting one, Space Cadet. (I forgot to take the bottle shot.)

I thiiink this is three coats. I probably could have done 1 or 2 over black and it would have been better, but it's too late now. You can't tell in the pictures, but in the sun, it's freaking awesome. Even better than it looks in photos. It's just... so... amazing. I can't think of something to compare its amazingness too. The closest thing I can think of is maybe brownies. I mean not just plain brownies, but the really good ones with chocolate chips and they're all gooey and delicious. So yeah, it's almost as awesome as the best brownies you've ever had.

The formula was good, no difficulties applying. I really like it. It's kind of a pinkish/reddish/greenish/yellowish duochrome, which sounds bad but is really so good. So good...

  3. I just got this in a swap- was gonna wear it this weekend and post it- may wait awhile and do it later since you just posted it. The best brownies I ever had were "funny" brownies if you get my drift! That was a LONG time ago! This is really cool looking! Think it may be better with black underwear?

  6. I love the idea of this one, but I know on me it would turn into ugly brown goo, so I will save the rest of the world from those pictures :P

  7. @Sonia: Whaaat? It looks nothing like Peridot. You cray cray, muggle girl.

    @Larie: Aww. I'm sure you look great in stuff that looks awful on me.

  9. Oh man. This is so pretty but I can't help but relate it to the saying 'Happiness is like wetting yourself...(etc)' the green reminds me of pee and the purplepink makes me want to pee out of glee. also, damn you. :P just made a franken for the competition/giveaway, didn't really want to enter (bit funny about it, I'd rather do the giving) but OMFG WHY HAVE I NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE IT'S SO FUN *-* expect an email within the next couple days (lack of nail polish remover ftl).
