Oribe The Lacquer | Live Swatches and Review

Press Sample

Hello friends! Today I have a new brand of polish to share with you, from the makers of Oribe Beauty. They have recently branched out into nail polish, with a line called "The Lacquer", and for that I have their first three shades, The Nude, The Violet, and The Red. 

Firstly, Oribe Beauty is a brand with a wide range of beauty products, including hair and skin products, make-up, and now polish. It's very easy to feel luxurious when seeing and feeling these bottles! The shape, contour, and bottle details are very attractive. Even thought the cap is a bit thick, it is not heavy, and not difficult to work with. The bottom line: I love the choice of bottle. I love that it's unique, and I love that it looks so luxurious. 

Another great feature from this polish brand is the brush that it comes with. It's wide, tapered, and soft! 
​

​Oribe describes it's lacquer as "ultra-long-wear polish with resin complex which extends longevity of wear and increases shine." It's important to note that this formula is 8-free. I did not test the wear of this polish, but I can say that all three creams were shiny. I did immediately swatch The Red on my dominant hand's thumb over a gel polish I was already wearing when I first received it (I couldn't contain the excitement when I received it), I did not top coat it, and it did not chip for the 4 days I wore it over that gel polish.

Oribe: The Red

​A gorgeous classic deep red polish, that was almost a one coater for me. The second coat just really deepened the color. Application was smooth and easy to apply. No issues noted with dry time. Shown is 2 coats plus top coat. 

Oribe: The Nude

​This is a warm-toned nude cream polish. Not sure how great it looks against my skin tone, but it's still a great polish. Application was smooth and easy to apply. No issues noted with dry time. Shown is 2 coats plus top coat. 

Oribe: The Violet

​And now we arrive to my favorite of the three colors, The Violet. This color is deep and vibrant! ​ Application was smooth and easy to apply. No issues noted with dry time. Shown is 2 coats plus top coat.
