We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights
See the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know
They say true love lasts a lifetime...
Well, I'm ready to commit.
Preamp is part of the 4 piece Electronica Fall 2012 Collection from Orly. This actually turned up in NZ before it came out in the States! I picked it up while I was on my Uni break in Auckland. It was worth paying full price at Farmers!!!
It's a really pretty purple toned pink (sort of a dirty lilac leaning pink) full of flakie shimmer (a bit like Dollish Polish Purple Haze), that glows pink/orange/gold depending on the lighting situation. It's not duochromey or anything, it just sort of picks up different levels of warmth. The shimmer really warms up the base so I think it'll suit all skin tones.
Application was decent. I can't remember if this was 2 or 3 coats, but I do remember liking the formula and getting decent coverage.
God, I love it so so so so so soooooooooooooooooooooooo much!
Have I told you that flakie shimmers are my favourite nail polish finishes?! And that's the 2nd in a row. Boo-yah!
Hey it's also Wednesday, so Happy Pink Wednesday ladies!!!
Do you have Preamp? Are you drooling over it?
Fingers, can you deal with the pink?

I wanted this when i saw the collection. I wish my no buy would end. Although i do like to wait until Farmers does a buy one get one free on Orly
ReplyDeleteI should really be on a no-buy! But whenever I leave a polish at Farmers, it's gone the next time I go back for it! Their buy 1 get 1 free are awesome though!!!!!
DeleteLooks just like NYX Girls Golden Lavender. Very pretty though,
ReplyDeletei just goggled it and you're right! I think Preamp is much pinker though, but the shimmer looks pretty similar. I can't believe I don't have Golden Lavender already!!
DeleteI just picked this one up this weekend...and I am so glad I snatched it up because it looks amaaaaaazing on you! Loving this mani and I can't wait to get this one on! : )
