Today, I have Orly Space Cadet from their fall 2010 Cosmic FX Collection. This was sent to me by the lovely Susan along with Avalon which I shared with you all yesterday. I had mentioned to Susan that I couldn't find Space Cadet anywhere and she volunteered to send it to me. Susan is such a sweetheart. She made me so excited. It took months to make it to me, but I was happy that it got here safely.
Space Cadet is a very strong duochrome of a golden olive green and purple. I was surprised that it was pretty sheer, but with three coats it was fully opaque. The formula is great! I had no problems with application. It also dried quickly.
I used Essie All in One Base, three coats of Space Cadet, and Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat.

I really like how strong the duochrome is in this polish. The polish changes constantly, which makes it very entertaining and distracting, lol.
I'm not a big fan of this shade of green though. For some reason it was bothering me. But since I don't see it all the time, it won't matter much. I'll be using this one over and over.
Thanks again Susan!! You rock ;0).
What do you guys think of Space Cadet?
Space Cadet is the ultimate duochrome and with the shimmer, it's super unique. I really like this on you; I'm glad you were finally able to get your hands on it!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree!! Thanks Amanda!

DeleteWith out a doubt, I need this polish. It's stunning!
ReplyDeleteYes you do!! It's such a beauty!
DeleteIt's so cute that you don't like one colour of the multi-chrome :) This is indeed a distracting polish though! I gave it to a friend as well, and both of us got asked by colleagues about the polish. They didn't usually bother!
