This is Hot Orange, from the Neon collection by Nubar. I bought this polish and Peacock Feathers from Beauty Shed earlier this week. It is that PMS time of the month, when my tastes become a little more avant garde than usual (remember Style Black?) and Hot Orange is not a classic or retiring colour, but it does make me happy to look at my fingers. Would I wear it for a serious meeting? Possibly, depending on the time of the month :) Quite seriously, it is perfect if you're after a nod to that retro-eighties look without going the whole fluorescent lipstick hog.
It did need three coats to get full gob-stopping jaw-dropping coverage, but like the other Nubar I've previously reviewed it dried very quickly, so this wasn't a problem for me. Shipping was fast; I ordered on Tuesday, it got here today. Nubar polishes are £8 each.
What do you think? Hate it? Love it? Think I'll only be wearing it once in a full moon? ;)

Love that last sentence, you're too funny!! I was actually quite shocked when your blog page opened, hehe! Do tell me, are you also wearing shoulder pads??? Perfect colour to peel mandarins...or stop traffic....:P xx
ReplyDeleteLOL Anna, no shoulder pads here :) It *is* shocking, but I like it, it's a change of pace from the dark colours I usually like on my nails. Normal nail service will resume soon; I have a couple of lovely winter dark shades to picture.
ReplyDeletebright but i love it!
