Not Out of the (Piney) Woods Yet: Orly Color Blast Disney Villains Collection Haul/Review

Hello Everyone! I finally have gotten around to posting on the Disney Villains nail polish collection from Orly Color Blast. I think I picked these up sometime in the late summer, but the last time I was in Walgreens, the display was still up, so they should still be available!

Orly Color Blast has quickly become a favorite drugstore brand. At first I was a little hesitant due to the price point, but when you have collections like these, they're hard to pass up! There are some polishes that are packaged as duos and then there were some that were on their own. Unfortunately, the polishes in the duos were not available on their own, so if you wanted one you had to fork out the $10.99 for the duo. I ended up stuck with not-so-unique polishes I probably could have done without.

Overall, the formulas on all of these are all excellent and if you're a big Disney fan like I am, you should definitely pick them up for your collection.

The first polish is called Sinister Sea Witch, part of the Ursula colors. This is a gray-taupe creme with a slight fuchsia flash/shimmer. Super pretty and great for work/school. I was opaque in two coats, but I did three just to see if the pink shimmer would get any stronger. It didn't.

This shot is with no flash and indoor lighting. You can kind of see the shimmer show up on the pointer, but it is still very subtle.

This is a shot with flash. Notice how different the entire polish looks! I guess it's just the flash, but it almost looks like it transforms from a taupe to a cool gray color, and you can really get a good look at the shimmer!

Next is Mistress of All Evil (awesome name) from the Maleficent colors. This is a pinky red to gold duochrome that is super shimmery. I have some similar polishes, but I don't think any are as shimmery as this one. Formula is good, it is not sheer and I was opaque in two coats. It has a darker bluish black base, which probably helps with coverage.

Here is a look at the gold shift. Please forgive the slight smudge on the ring finger! :(

This shot is of the pink shift. You can really see how much shimmer is packed in this baby.

Now on to the colors in the duos. The first duo is called Dragon's Wrath from Maleficent's colors.

The first color is called Uninvited guest. It is a deep purple creme that dries to a semi-matte look. Totally wasnt expecting that. This one is a little patchy, as you can see from the first picture. I let it slide, because I knew the flaky topper was going over it.

The second polish in the duo is called Cast My Spell! and it is a glowy yellow flaky topper in a clear base. It also surprisingly dries to a matte finish, which is awesome because I prefer the look of matte flakies to shiny ones. It would only take a topcoat to get it shiny again if that's what you preferred!

This is one coat over Uninvited guest.

Next duo from Ursula is called Flotsam and Jetsam after her beloved eels.

P.S. Why is there only one shown on the package though?!?

The first polish is called Evil Eels. This is pretty much your run-of-the-mill silver foil polish but it is still beautiful. It has decent coverage and it doesn't show as many brush stroks.

The next polish is probably my absolute favorite and makes having to buy the duo worth it. This is called Power Hungry. It's like Regina George. How do I begin to explain it? It's a light pink to light blue/green duochrome shift with a linear holographic that shows up only in sunlight. In some lights it looks completely sheer, and in others it looks completely opaqe. I am just so fascinated by this polish! I took a million pictures of this polish, because it looks so different in different lights and angles.

Natural lighting with no flash. Freaking stunning.
