Orly Cosmic FX Lunar Eclipse Swatch

Last, but not least from the Cosmix  FX collection is Lunar Eclipse. I kept saying this with each polish, but this one was really the hardest to photograph lol. I think it's because this is a blue and purple duochrome and blue and purple are really hard to capture on camera. Purple usually ends up looking blue which is really frustrating. The base of this color is such a vibrant, rich blue that I would totally wear it just like that. To make it even better, there is a ton of purple glitter, giving it a cool duochrome effect. Like I said, it was hard to capture, but I hope you can tell. I used 3 coats, no topcoat.

Orly Cosmic FX Galaxy Girl Swatch

Galaxy Girl is another dark polish from this collection that I'm not very fond of. It may just be my least favorite of them all. I don't know, I guess there just wasn't anything really special about this one to make me like it. It has a plum base with blue glitter. I used 3 coats, no topcoat. It was quite difficult for me to photograph this one. I'm debating whether or not I should get/build a lightbox. Do many of you nail bloggers out there use a lightbox, do you recommend using one? Well off to bed, tomorrow I have to go to an orientation for the nursing program I will be starting in September. Wish me luck!

Oh yea, after orientation I'm going on a nail polish haul adventure! I heard of this store called US Nails Supply where O.P.I. are $4.25 each, China Glaze are $3 each (only $2.75 if you buy 10 or more), Essie is $3.50, so forth. Basically I'm gonna try not to go nuts there, I'll post some pics =]

Orly Cosmic FX It's Not Rocket Science Swatch

I love green and I especially love this color! It's Not Rocket Science has a medium green base and bright green glitter. At some angles the glitter appears green, at others it appears gold. This color was the easiest to photograph from the Cosmic FX Colletion! I used 3 coats, no topcoat.

I only have 2 more to show from this collection and then I'll have some nail art back up! At least I finally got around to these. It was a good time for me to try them anyways because I've been feeling ill all week and these didn't take much of a toll on me.

Orly Cosmic FX Out of This World Swatch

Out of This World was an okay color for me. I'm not a fan of really dark polishes, but aside from me being partial to bright colors, this is still be a pretty polish. The base for this color is a really dark purple, almost black, and then there's tons of purple glitter! At some angles, the polish looks almost black, at other angles, you can definitely tell it's purple. The purple glitter looks gold at some angles. I used 3 coats. Sorry for all the lines on my nails, I went to bed after doing this and I wanted to show these swatches with no topcoat.
