Apple Harvest Ready

Posted by Libby's Pink Vanity at 9/16/2010 08:01:00 PM

After I got out of college, I began to love fall. No more starting school!!! But, it also meant the end of a 3 month vacation. Hello, adult life.

And, as I get a bit older (hey! it's rude to ask!!!), fall is a pleasant ~~temperature~~ season. I AM a sweater girl. I love wearing boots. I adore flannel sheets! I SO live in Florida! Hmmmm....

In a previous post, I showed this set I got from Icing...

Yeaaahhhh! My first fall collection of the year!! Yummmy!!

First one tested....

A creamy red that is orange/yellow based. Icing doesn't name any of these. And that gives me a chance to "NAME THAT COLOR!!!!"

I, hereby, dub thee "Harvest Apple."

It's cute, I do like it. However, I think blue reds are better for my skin tone. But, since I am in a (hurry up and get here!) fall mood, it fits.

This is 2 base coats, 2 coats of Harvest Apple, one Seche Clear and then Seche Vite. It wore like crazy. Consistency is a bit thick and would be much easier to manage on my fingers. And the stupid little top and brush...it will put a scowl on your face.

The price wasn't too bad; $8 for the entire mini set. And, I still see this fall collection in the Icing stores. So they are not flying out of the store. But then, I figure since it is 'mostly' a young girl's boutique store, that audience isn't into these shades of polish anyway.

Which looks better on you: orange reds or blue reds? Do you have a 'rite of passage' fall color or shade?

Megan Harmeyer on September 16, 2010 at 10:21 PM said...: Blue reds are definitely more my color (I have too much yellow in my skin tone for orange reds to work). I don't really have a specific fall color...yet. I just started this whole polish obsession a couple months ago. I guess I'll be finding that out sooner rather than later. Great post!
