Hey there!
Happy Easter everybody! :)
So, for those of you who didn't know already, there's a whole "Colour of the Year" thing that Pantone release each year. (Personally, I had no idea what so ever!)
Last year, this colour was Emerald, which I am genuinely gutted that I missed out on- I love green!
This year's colour is on the other end of the spectrum, and goes by the name "Radiant Orchid" which is a kind of pinky-purple floral tone.
As you all probably know, I am definitely not a fan of any pink tones, and personally this is a little too pink for me, so it won't be a featured colour despite it being "colour of the year", but to celebrate the occasion, I pulled a nail polish out of my collection that more-or-less fits the theme. Let me know what you think of it, anyway!
I added a highlight nail for a little bit of variation and also matte-coated my middle three nails to compare with the two shiny nails.
Honestly, I was kinda hoping that you'd be able to see the pinky/purple tones underneath the holographic polish...
I was wrong, it got completely covered up.
