NYC - Sun Goddess

APPLICATION: Smooth
COATS: 2
TOPCOAT?: Yes
SOURCE: Walgreens/Rite Aid/CVS/Target - can't remember
COMMENTS: I'm trying to go through the main rainbow colors for my next polishes, so after my red mani, I had to choose something orange. The treadmill was waiting for me, so it had to be quick. In addition, I didn't want the orange to look like part of a leftover halloween costume, so it couldn't be a standard orange creme. Sooo... I grabbed this wonderful textured shimmer from NYC. Sun Goddess is not quite opaque at two coats, but that doesn't bother me because it's gorgeous!

Oh yah, and I didn't bother with cleanup...






UP NEXT: Something yellow - ish...

    This is a great color - I love the shimmer in it. I've had a horrible time with streaking with this brand of polish. Did you have that problem?

    @Toesthattwinkle! - Thank you!

    @Deez Nailz - I think I got this earlier this year. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't been reviewed more because it's the kind of color that warrants a second look when you see it.

    @Megan - This is my second time using a polish from this brand. The first was a yellow from the 99c line of the brand, so that was expectedly streaky but smoothed out well. This one wasn't streaky at all, and these have a flattened brush which made application quick and easy.

    Oranges don't usually look great on me but I might have to try out this beauty. Thanks for the swatch of a polish I've never seen before!

    Hi! I loved your visit on my blog!
    Yours is great!!!
    This colour looks hot on you!
    I have a problem with NYC, I can never get them opaque with 2 coats either! But I guess their price and the range of colours they have kind of compensate for that!
