Orly Prelude to a kiss is a peachy pink polish that is opaque in 2 coats. The formula self level pretty well and I found the application to be easy.
It's a pretty, feminine and soft color that I think would look lovely on pale skin.
On my NC20-ish yellow toned skin, it can look a tiny bit stark in low light situation. But in daylight, it's lovely.

NOTD - OPI Suzi Takes The Wheel
This is OPI - Suzi Takes the Wheel from OPI Touring America collection.
I'd say that this is a green tinged gray. The swatch above is 2 to 3 coats (2 coats on some fingers, 3 on others) so, 2 thicker coats will probably suffice.
The formula and wear time is good, I've had this on for a week and only getting very minor tip wear.

NOTW - Zoya Skylar
Zoya Skylar from the True collection. According to Zoya it is a medium steel blue with a softened, dusty look and speckled by visible gold and silver shimmer flecks. A soft blue that's bold without being too dark, bright or flashy.
I agree that it's a medium dusty blue, and the simmer flecks is visible on the nail even on low light. It has a muted look to it. The nail swatch above is 3 coats, to me this polish needs 3 coats in order to get even opaque coverage.

OPI - Rally Pretty Pink
This color is gorgeous! I kept staring at my finger when wearing this.
I'd say that the gold shimmer is what stands out the most once on the nails. But the pinky base complements it nicely. Such a lovely combination.
The above swatch is 3 thin coats with OPI natural nail base coat and Seche Vite top coat.
The wear time is approximately a week on me.

White Water River (白水河) Yunnan
White water river a.k.a Bai Shui He (白水河) in Li Jiang - Yunnan - China.
This river sits in the bottom of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and depending on the weather (fogs and clouds can really block your view), you can get a very nice view of the mountains from there.
Photo is taken with a canon 550D camera with the 15-85mm lens.

Tonymoly Kiss Lover PC02 (Tiara Peach)
Another item I go from a recent haul. This item is marked as limited edition, and is actually from their fall/winter '11 collection.
I honestly didn't like this. It applied patchy and dry, and the color didn't do anything for my skin tone (nc20-ish).
It swatches nicely enough on the back of my hand, but once I tried to apply it on my lips, the problem begins. It's chalky and patchy.
You can see the color in the swatch below.

Purple Kleancolor NOTD
I bought a couple of kleancolor polish for the first time yesterday and I decided to combine two of them for my NOTD. I use kleancolor sheer pastel grey as the base and then added kleancolor kiss goodbye to the tips.
Sheer pastel grey is like it's name pretty sheer. I use 3 coats on my nails, and it's still somewhat see through. Also although it's called grey, it's more light grey tinged purple in reality or dusty really light purple.
Kiss goodbye is a multi-colored glitter. The glitter particle is fine and to me it looks like red and blue glitter particle in clear base. The resulting mix is purpley glitter.
I got these here and if you live in Indonesia I would recommend her. Super fast shipping time and the price is good too. These are Rp.24,000 each.
