Orly Fowl Play

OPI Merry Midnight was one of those polishes I regretted not getting. When I first heard about Orly Fowl Play, I knew I had to get it. What's funny about this one is I had no trouble finding it. I heard a lot of other bloggers were having problems finding it. It's usually me who has the issues finding the good stuff! It was nice surprise to find this one. I actually found it on an Ulta trip with Libby's Pink Vanity. Thankfully, they had more than one, so we didn't have to fight over it!

Fowl Play
 
Fowl Play is a deep purple jelly mixed in with irregular shaped iridescent flakies and silver microglitter.

That's a mouthful. It really is a kids left over craft project poured in a bottle. It's a bottle full of fun and sparkle. You can't go wrong. This isn't an exact dupe to OPI Merry Midnight, but from what I can tell it's close enough. My only issue with this is the jelly base is a bit sheer. This does require more coats, but it can still be a bit patchy application wise. I think this could look better layered over a deep purple creme or black.

Happy Tuesday!

  2. I'm surprised by how much I am loving Orly lately...I feel like I neglected them before!  I picked up this one plus 2 others from this collection.  I love that you get a good amount for the price with Orly (like I'm ever going to use up an entire bottle of polish! :)  ) Looks super on you!

  3. I've picked this up recently and I have to admit I'm not that impressed with the formula. I don't know if it's because of how sheer is it or the jelly base but when it dried there very obvious receding at the tips. And I think it smells! But apart from that I love it :-)

  4. I love this color! Of course I can't find it anywhere even close to me so I just bought it on e-bay. I haven't worn it yet but all of the pics I've seen of it are gorgeous!

  5. Oh, Orly is good.  Very clever, Orly, very clever.  OPI didn't seem to take a hint that the world requested more "Merry Midnight", so Orly stepped up and delivered. Haha. :D

  8. I can not wait to get my hands on this. I haven't been able to find it anywhere and I'm far too lazy to order it online. Womp.
