L'Oreal-Owl's Night

I know I said I'd try to do some Halloween manis, but I couldn't NOT wear this beauty. I know this has been hard to find for some people, but when I went to Rite Aid the other day there were several in the little collection case thing. *shrugs* Maybe Charleston as a whole doesn't care about nail polish like other cities. Anyway, enough of my blah blah blahing and on to the polish.

Owl's Night is a part of the LE Project Runway collection. I actually still really like PR. Do you guys watch it? Anyway, it's a dark brown with olive green shimmer. Or...something. I truly can't sum on what this polish is. When I first saw it I thought olive green, but on the nail it reads brown. I don't know, I just know it's gorgeous. (Speaking off, are there any brown and (preferably olive) green duochromes out there? I'd LOVE a polish like that.) The shimmer is out of this world. It glows, even inside. There's also a hint of orange shimmer in the polish.

This is two coats. Maybe I should have done three, but oh well. There's a slight (and I mean slight) little streak that's visible in pictures, but not really in person. But I blame that on how I was painting my nails. I did a few with very thin coats and the others with very thick. But the formula itself was pretty good. Dried okay I guess. Not fast but not super slow. Very much average.

This is my first L'Oreal polish so I was curious about the brush. I don't like it. It seems too...stiff. I know not everyone has the OPI wide brush, but I think it can be better. Or maybe I just need to get used to it. And I love the bottle design. I partial to square bottles, what can I say? It's really cute and I like the top. Not the a-typical black circular top.

I love this so so so very much. Maybe there's a dupe out there, but I don't have anything like this in my collection. It's really unique. I think this may be my favorite polish of the fall collections so far. (I feel like I say that all the time, but it's true!) Are all L'Oreal polishes like this? I may need to see what else they have. Damn my nail junkie tendencies. :)
