This is Face It OR203.
I was so disappointed in this color! In the bottle, it looks like a really bright, shimmery coral, but it translates into a light peach with a foil finish on the nails. It's pretty and wearable, but not what I was expecting. Having expectations can be such a downer sometimes :(
It was very sheer, so I'm definitely going to layer this one in the future. I used two coats in this swatch.
For some reason my camera picked up a yellow duochrome that I can't detect in person. I wonder if it's my external flash/diffuser set up playing tricks on me?
Thanks for looking (:

Ya I can see some yellow lines. Maybe it's the glitter from the nail polish? Anyway, yes. Expectations can be a downer sometimes. Hehe. Especially if it's some expensive beauty-related thing that I bought but it doesn't work out the way I want to (because I'm not really a make-up junkie).

Ahww i know the feeling! Some time back i found this pretty pink one but on my nails it was more white D: But this one is still very pretty on your nails! ^^
Well don't lose hope on it ;) I'm sure it's going to be prettier layered over a bright coral or pink! Give it a go!
That stinks when it doesn't live up to what you were expecting. That being said I still think it looks pretty on you :)
That's a really pretty peach foil and it looks great on you! Aww bummer about it not meeting your expectations though.

i wish the duochrome isn't just one of your camera's tricks! i think the duochrome compensates! :D
Wow. What a difference between bottle and nail... talk about false advertising! Definitely layer it; alone, it gives you old lady nails. That color screams 80s!
Hello! I just came across your wonderful blog and was wondering if we could follow each other? Take care. :)

Thanks! :) I was wondering if you would like to follow each other's blogs? I just thought it would be really great to have a new blogger friend like you. :)

Ugh, I LOVE your swatches and nails! How do you maintain them so long like that? Share with me your secrets.
Nice and feminine.
@ joei: yeah i hate when that happens! that's why i go through lots of reviews before purchasing, just so i can get an idea of what to expect =]
@ lita: ahh how frustrating! i hate when polishes aren't true to their color on the nail
@ criminal nails: will do! i'm determined to make this one look just as awesome as the bottle! hehe
@ kas: aww, thank you!
@ yun: thanks =]
@ kumi: sometimes i do see it, but it's not very prominent. i'm thinking it's cause my pictures are super close up?
@ ana: HAHA ikr! it reminded me of something my aunt would like. (not that she's an old lady, she just has a thing for more conservative colors lol)
@ kristina: ty =]
