The past week has felt like a lifetime. I am now moved. We are pretty much done with everything except for adding some finishing touches. We have a lot more space, and I know have a desk area to do all my swatching! Can you believe I had been swatching over a coffee table for over 3 years? My back is in BAD shape! I'm still getting used to new surroundings. Transition is not easy for me, but I'll settle in soon. :)
On to polish!
I have for you today a polish from Orly's Hope and Freedom Fest collection. I really liked many of the colors from this collection. I feel Orly has kind of faded into the background lately, and I hope they pick themselves up. I really enjoy the brand, but I don't think they do so well at promoting themselves lately.
Boho Bonnet
Color: This is a beautiful creamy soft color. I find this shade very flattering for a pale shade on my pale skin. I love the combination of blue and grey.
Formula: Great formula. I would of expected a color this light to be tricky to apply, but this applied smoothly and evenly. The formula is a bit on the thinner side, but I do not feel that interfered with the application.
Price: I purchased this at Ulta for $8.50.
Overall: Beautiful color with a great formula. I think colors like this one fit into any season and would look good with just about anything. The PolishAholic compared this to Zoya Kristen, and they are similar. While she thinks Zoya Kristen has the better formula, I must disagree. I think Boho Bonnet formula is far superior! You can all can decide that for yourself though, everyone has different formula preferences.
My Rating: 4.5 out of 5 Paint Splatters
Happy Friday!
I love blue grey polishes like this! So creamy and dreamy!
ReplyDeleteThis is really pretty! I'm gonna have to add it to my ever-growing shopping list :)
ReplyDeleteThis color is really pretty! I like it a lot.
ReplyDeleteGah it's gorgeous and I HAVE yearned for kristen. I may have to score this since I tend to like Orly over Zoya (eghad I said that!)
ReplyDeleteI agree the new design is terrible but I love what's in the bottle. I know they were trying for a modern vintage but yuck.
ReplyDeleteThis is really pretty, but I haaaate the new Orly bottles.
ReplyDeletethis is def one of my favorite polishes period- i love it.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you got all moved! Thanks to all the guest posters but it is nice to have you back!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a beautiful color!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful shade!!!! I think I may need it in my life. Glad you're settling in okay.
ReplyDeleteI love this! It's a bit thin for me though, I had to put on 3 coats for it to look opaque. Other than that, great polish!
