4 Orly Beauty Nail Polishes Reviewed: Sweet Peacock, Lush, Steal The Spotlight, and Brush It On

Hello everyone! It is time for another nail polish review! This time, I will be reviewing four Orly Beauty nail polishes in the shades: Sweet Peacock, Brush It On, Lush, and Steal The Spotlight.

Orly Beauty Lush Nail Polish

This is an amazing and unique colored nail polish color! This is a lime yellow green colored nail polish with yellow, green, blue, and orange strips of paper in it. I absolutely love this nail polish color! I have no other color like it, and in some lightings, like here with a flash, this nail polish even looks neon in color. This color is a great color for everyday wear since it appears light and subtle enough in color on the nails. This was one of my favorite colors out of all four of the Orly Beauty nail polishes that I reviewed here.

This nail polish applied like a breeze. Its formula is watery, but I did not have to shake it every time to prevent it from being too watery while applying it. I did not need a top coat with this nail polish either since it dried very fast. I only needed one swatch of this nail polish to reach opacity.

This nail polish wore extremely well! After wearing it for four days without a top coat, it still looked almost exactly the same as when I first applied it.

This nail polish is a very glittery, blue green color. It has blue, green, purple, and blue flecks of glitter in it. Since this nail polish has so much glitter in it, it is perfect for the holiday season ☃!

This nail polish has a watery formula, so you will need to shake it each time before you apply it because otherwise, this nail polish comes out too watery. I did layer this polish twice in order to reach full opacity. One downside to this nail polish though is that when I layered it too much in areas that needed more polish because it still was not opaque, I found that this polish took too long to dry. Thus, I had to apply a top coat to this nail polish in order to get it to dry, and since this polish didn’t dry on some of my nails, I just applied a top coat to all of my nails that had this nail polish on them. Thus, I don’t recommend using this nail polish on its own; you should use a top coat with this nail polish.

I wore this nail polish for four days to see how it performed, and it did not fare well at all. This polish broke down badly and looked terrible by the third day, at which time, a lot of the polish was gone. Since it broke down this much with a top coat, imagine how it would have been without one. So, I don’t feel that this nail polish is the best quality.

Orly Beauty Brush It On Nail Polish

 

This nail polish is a glitter polish with pink, yellow, and orange flecks of glitter in it; it has a beige undertone, which also makes it a great color for everyday wear since it is mild and light enough in color. Since this color is mild, you can make it bolder by wearing it as a top coat on top of another nail polish, rather than wearing it by itself.



Like the other two Orly Beauty nail polishes I tried out above, this one also has a watery formula. I also needed two coats of this polish in order to reach opacity. There were no issues with it drying though; it dried very fast.

This nail polish wears very well without a top coat! After wearing it for four days, it still looked almost exactly as it did when I first applied it.

 
 
 

Orly Beauty Sweet Peacock Nail Polish

 

This nail polish is a stunning beautiful royal blue polish with lots of shine and white glitter flecks in it. The name ‘Sweet Peacock’ really does suit this polish very well because it is a blue that does a peacock justice. This nail polish color was also another one of my favorite shades out of the four Orly Beauty polishes that I reviewed here.

 

Despite the beauty of this color, the formula has a major flaw: it is messy and difficult to apply. I honestly don’t understand why I had such a hard time applying this nail polish since it does not have a watery formula like the other Orly Beauty polishes reviewed earlier. Nevertheless, it got everywhere! It got all over my fingers and even on my pencil! I actually had to get a cotton swab and remove the polish from my fingers and hands with nail polish remover. I think part of the problem with this nail polish is that it takes too long to dry, so it can transfer easily as you start doing things thinking, “it has been a long time, so it’s dry.” So, I did have to apply a top coat when I wore this nail polish in order to get it to dry.




In terms of opacity, I only needed one coat of this nail polish to reach opacity.

I wore this nail polish for four days, and it wore very well! My nails looked almost exactly the same as they did when I first applied it. Do keep in mind though that I wore a top coat with this nail polish. 

Since this nail polish is difficult to work with, I do not recommend it for beginners. Even though this color is very beautiful, I’m not sure I will reach for it again because it is a lot of work to apply and I can be very lazy 😐😔.

 

Final Thoughts

Out of all four Orly Beauty nail polishes that I reviewed here today, Lush and Sweet Peacock were my favorites, but the formula for Sweet Peacock, as well as for Steal The Spotlight are not the best quality in my opinion. So, out of these four nail polishes, I feel that Lush and Brush It On are the best quality ones, so I do highly recommend these two shades.

In terms of overall quality for the Orly Beauty nail polishes, I would say that their quality varies widely among their shades.

Have you tried any of the Orly Beauty nail polishes? What did you think of them?

Every culture has its own unique beauty, but one thing that all of them have in common is that healthy is always beautiful. But health is not constant or instant in life. Health is part of the life journey that we are all on until our time is up.

Later, I studied health and psychology at The University of Maryland University College. After college, I continued following medical breakthroughs around the world, from India to the UK. I soon realized that there was so much health knowledge out there, but so few people had access to it. Thus, I turned to writing. My goal is to share valuable health breakthroughs with the world and connect health to beauty and multiculturalism; that is how this site came to life.
