This is one of those colors that people either love or hate. I loved that it gave me excellent coverage in 1-coat, but found the shade a bit dull to wear on its own. As usual, I threw added a little something to make it more wearable.

Revlon - Long Shot
COATS:

Walmart
COMMENTS:
I'd been eyeing this shade from Revlon for years, and finally decided to pick it up at Walmart. It reminds me of China Glaze Life Preserver and NYC Burnt Orange - which of course means I probably shouldn't have succumbed.

Extra polish added to blog giveaway from Johanna (Paillette) back in 2011.
COMMENTS:
There's a pretty gold shimmer running through this polish that unfortunately isn't as apparent on the nail. I'm glad I finally got round to wearing it.

This isn't the first time I've worn this polish, but it's such a lovely blue that I just had to post it again.

COATS:
2 (yellow), 3 (orange)

Beauty supply store in downtown Los Angeles
COMMENTS:
I felt like wearing another one of these looks with the silver (Mia Secret Storm of Glitter) base. For the orange I started with one coat of the red tint followed by two coats of yellow.

Mia Secret Tint - Red, over Storm of Glitter - Silver
COATS:
2
SOURCE:
A naily supply store in Downtown LA
COMMENTS:
I always meant to someday wear each of my tints from this brand on its own over the silver glitter like this. These tints turned out to be nice, but would have been even nicer if they could also be used as bases for stamping (unfortunately they bleed into lighter colors).

There's nothing quite like an old favorite to liven the spirits. Surprisingly I've used this with other colors but never worn it on its own.

I thought I would like this one more on me, but it went directly to the "give away" box after this, so hopefully someone in my extended family is enjoying it more than I did.
