Orly: Lemonade

Orly Lemonade came out in Spring 2010. The collection was called Sweet and featured pastel colors.
Each nail polish in this collection came with a mini lip gloss matching the color and flavor.
Lemonade is a cool yellow color.
It was opaque in two coats. 
I've heard this polish was difficult for some people.
It applied fine for me. It wasn't the best formula but I had no problems.
So this photo right here ^^,
will be the worst photo I ever post on my blog.
I layered Hard Candy Sugar Daddy on top of Orly Lemonade.
Sugar Daddy is a sheer white polish with gold shimmer.
It's a gorgeous color.
I would not suggest wearing it by itself since it is so sheer.

So readers, what do you think of this color??

Hard Candy: Sky

Hard Candy Sky is a gorgeous baby blue with blue shimmer (look at my index finger in the picture).The first coat of this color was patchy and left some balding towards the cuticle bed. When I applied the second coat, there was no more patchiness and no more balding. The formula is a bit on the thick side but it's nothing to worry about it.  I got this color at Walmart for $5, I think.

I had extra time today before so I decided to spruce up this manicure by adding stamping.
This is my first attempt at layering and I must say, I did a pretty good job. 
Pardon the messiness, my lens is a macro lens and picks up any imperfection. 
I see this done a lot with nude/neutral colors. 
I love this konadicure
