Orly – Glowstick (Review) July 8, 2015
Howdy.
Glow baby glow. Today I’m going to review the polish Glowstick by Orly. This is a bright, neon, highlighter yellow nail polish.
Consistency/Formula: Smooth, thin formula
Application/Opacity: Applies smoothly but requires many many coats to cover the nail fully due to the thin, sheer formula.
Brush: This polish uses a standard brush.
Packaging: I really love the look of the bottle, it’s a unique shape for Orly polishes. The grips on the side of the black lid really add a nice touch to the product packaging.
Polish finish: Neon
Extra: 3-Free formulation, No DBP, Formaldehyde, Toluene
Con: Requires too many coats to cover the nail on its own.
Conclusion: Apart from the beautiful bright neon colour of Glowstick, It’s not my favourite polish. The fact that I have to layer it over a white polish for full opacity or else I end up applying way too many coats and it smudges before it even dries, IF it dries, doesn’t make up for it. My recommendation would be to layer this with a white nail polish as a base so you can limit the amount of coats.
