NOTD: Orly Darkest Shadow

I know it is an old polish but the colour tone suits how the day looks out there and how I feel inside. Also suits the Halloween occasion this week 🙂

This is Orly Darkest Shadow from the Smoky (Fall 2014) collection.

I have mentioned in the past that Quo by Orly Fall 2014 collection had almost duplicated the whole Orly Smoky collection. Case in point: Quo Dark Emerald (rebottled from Orly Smoked Out) and Prismatic (Orly Brush It On).

Except for 1 shade: Orly Darkest Shadow did not make it cross the border with Quo and was replaced by Quo Blue Shadow, a navy blue with shimmers. I am glad I found Darkest Shadow from the clearance sale at Sally.

Darkest Shadow is described as a black with lots of red and fuchsia shimmers. The shimmers are so strong and shine through that dark base that I sometimes have a hard time calling it a black.

Even better, it only takes one coat to be this dark and glowy. No layering needed. If I were going trick or treating with the kiddo this weekend, Darkest Shadow would be a good candidate for the nails.

Are you going to be the trick-or-treater or the giver that night, or the candy/ chocolate sale hunter the next day? Stay safe!
