I coveted my L'Oreal Chrome Yellow nail polish from around 1986. It was one of the very few unusual shades available at the time. Wish I still had that one. Anyone remember it? Sea Lily and Sea Violette were two of my faves.buttercookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00694064004023535805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-88822993564669289342013-01-16T06:37:25.489-08:002013-01-16T06:37:25.489-08:00Love this post!

I like how they're slightly curved; they nest against each other so well!<br /><br />Without checking my Melmer, I have (and love) Orbit (BRIGHT blue with shimmer), Plumage (dark raisin-y purple with green shimmer), Bird Song (really pretty softened blue-teal shimmer), Mig (sheer pale purple-pink shimmer duo chrome), Off-Shore (similar to Mig but a seafoam), Chop Chop (bright-but-soft orange crème), and one that has an odd name that doesn't match the polish, like Techno or something (super frosty metallic sand). I used to have a gorgeous one (Ultra Violet?) that was a deep fuchsia with BLUEblue shimmer.

The color I had was a really pretty red. Not sure what happened to the nail polish but the top coat still applies really well. It hasn't thickened or yellowed over the years.

My sister kept borrowing my beloved cranberry gold-flecked nail polish (can't remember the brand) so for Christmas one year I bought her a bunch of L'Oreal polishes (all mauve, pink, reds in the mid 80's) from Woolworth's, a store long gone. I remember it being a very expensive gift for my allowance, L'Oreal was definitely one of the highest priced drugstore brands.CBBgreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17808829493940119858noreply@blogger.com
