Orly Elation Generation - swatches and review

The weeks are passing by so quickly that I almost can't keep up... :/ It's already Friday again and that means Holo Friday!! :D
Today I want to show you a fairly new holo glitter polish from Orly. Meet "Elation Generation" from Orly's spring collection "Hope & Freedom Fest" :)
With this post I've now shown you the whole collection! :D A collection summary will be posted soon! ;)



GOOD TO KNOW ABOUT ELATION GENERATION:

Type of polish: Holographic glitter in a crelly-ish formula.

Colour: A pink, leaning towards coral, packed with holographic glitter.

Collection: Orly Hope & Freedom Fest Collection Spring 2013.

Opacity: Good! This is three coats. Not too bad for a crelly.

Formula: Excellent! A perfect formula which is super easy to apply!

Brush: Excellent! No complaints at all! And the grip cap is amazing as always!

Shine: Very shiny on its own so I have no top coat in these pictures.

Accurate colour, photo vs IRL: Quite accurate! Perhaps a bit less red looking IRL and more pink leaning towards coral looking instead. It's really sparkling and glittering in the sun!

Grade: 3+/5 :)

I liked this polish much more than I first thought when I saw it in the bottle, but it's really not my type of colour and it doesnt really suit my skintone, hence the 3+ out of 5 :) But if you have darker skin or a nice tan it would look great! The formula is great and it dries really quickly for a glitter polish AND it's a big-3-free polish! 

How do you like Elation Generation?

  2. Oh! Jezz, this is gorgeous! Is my favourite colour of the whole collection! Plus, in the pictures it looks like it suits you just great, why do you think it doesn't?

    1. Ciao cara! I'm so glad you like it Nati! :D It's not my favourite from this collection but it's a pretty shade! If you'd see it on me full hand I think you'd agree with me that it doesn't suit me ;) That's why I didn't include a full hand picture ;) lol! Bacioni! xx

  5. Hi meine Süsse, now look at me, I am super late with my comment - aaaargh!!! I loved all the Orly polishes you showed us and you kept my favorite for last!!! (I do seem to have a knack for corals lately, eh?). I also liked the grey one, these two are my favorites. I hope you have some great plans for your weekend love - Küsschen xxx
