Nail polish haul - Orly and Essie

I'm currently doing my first year at college studying beauty therapy level 2 and so today we visited the London Excel for the 'professional beauty show' Where we had the chance to buy beauty equipment cheap and to find ourselves some bargains.

As i am a great lover of nail polish when i saw the Orly stall advertising a deal of 'buy three bottles for £10" i couldn't resist taking a look and making a purchase.There was also a large Essie stand full of all the different shades of polish, and the offer was VAT free prices so worked out at around £5.

I have tested out the polish and they are really good consistency and good coverage.I will definitely be looking into other colours to buy from orly.

'Butterflies'  'red flare'  'close your eyes'  'be brave'  'classic contours'  'Purple velvet'  'mint candy apple'

These swatches are after 2 coats of polish and no top coat, the orly polish has a natural high shine finish.

 My favourite nail polish colours to wear are reds and purples. 

I really like the 'be brave' glitter specs because it will look good over another shade of purple or even over a complete contrasting colour.
