This polish was a gift from the ever-generous Rach of stuff i (s)watched and boy, did she ever nail--no pun intended--this one! Few polishes make me happier than a perfect green! Orly Green Apple originally came out in the Hot Stuff Collection and as the name implies, it's the color of a green Granny Smith apple.
Green Apple looks so summery and fresh. If you haven't guessed by now, I really love it! The formula is on the streaky side but nothing unmanagable. I used three coats here. I like how this color is bright but also has an almost pastel-like softness to it. It reminds me of a cross between OPI Gargantuan Green Grape and Essie Navigate Her. Ironically, I dislike green apples (too sour for me) but I adore Orly Green Apple. :)
1. this looks really great on you
ReplyDelete2. mmmmm, I love green apples. Now I want one!

ReplyDeleteThat is a fabulous green! It does have a Summer-y feel to it!
ReplyDeleteOh I love this one. I'm green with envy :)
ReplyDelete@Sarah: Thank you! I prefer Gala apples, myself. :)
ReplyDelete@Nory: It's certainly an eye-catcher! Bright but somehow light at the same time.
@Anne: Thanks! I wish the weather outside matched the look of this polish!
@greeneyespinknails: Hahaha thank you!
Sweet a** color! I love it :)
ReplyDeleteThis color is great! Very bright and summery. It kind of reminds me of Sally Hansen Green With Envy.

I have this color too. I use it quite a bit. It stained the turd out of my nails when I wore it as a full mani.
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun color!
ReplyDelete@Sheba: Thank you!
ReplyDelete@Melissa: I definitely see the resemblance to the Sally Hansen, I'd say they look pretty close! Awesome, thank you! I will check it out! :)
@TopCoatIt: It kind of reminds me of the background color on your user icon, come to think of it! I was worried it would stain but was too lazy to use a basecoat haha. I managed to get away with it this time though.
@Polish and Charms: I agree, it just makes me feel happier when I wear this haha.
This is a really pretty green!! Looks great on you.
ReplyDeleteOh wowwwww. This looks fabulous on you! :) SO glad you like it! It wasn't my perfect apple green, but I somehow ended up with a dupe anyway. *facepalm* I love Orlys, though. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome green! I tagged you for the 11 Questions Tag. Check out the rules on my page! :)
ReplyDelete@MariJo: Thank you! :)
ReplyDelete@Rach: Thank you so much for sending it to me, I absolutely love it to pieces! Funny which polishes we end up having dupes for haha. I think it's because if you have a polish you really love, you remember it and don't wind up with dupes. It's the obscure ones in your collection that sneak up on you!
@A Girl and Her Polish: Thank you! I will check it out!
Love this! :) Looks like a great color. So bright...and fun!!
ReplyDelete@Elizabeth: Thanks! I love it too! It puts me in a summery mood.
