Nail Polish Stress Test: Orly Color Blast Mistress Of All Evil

I have not had a lot of luck with Color Blast polishes so far. However, I find I can get the Disney polishes from Walgreen's for $1.59 pretty consistently if I’m patient. I don't mind buying potential loser polish at that price. This time my patience has been rewarded with today’s test subject: Mistress Of All Evil from the Disney Villains 2015 collection.

I discovered is that this polish appears to be a relabeled Rainbow Color Flip from their core collection. Another Color Blast I reviewed a while back, Frozen, is a relabeled Sky Blue Color Flip.

Here’s my Disney Polishes.

Here’s the Core Polishes.

If I were a completist, this would aggravate me, but since the only place near me that sells the core Color Blasts is Kohl’s, and they never do polish sales, I’m more than happy with my Walgreen’s clearance finds.

Mistress Of All Evil is a dark gray jelly base with duochrome shimmer. Indoors I mostly saw pink, but outside the color shift really shows, with shifts to orange, yellow, pink and green. I really love polishes like this! I used three coats with one coat of Seche Vite on top.

Sadly I couldn’t get this one to stamp or water marble. It’s just too sheer.

So, how did it hold up?

This one actually made it two whole days! That’s darn good for this brand!

Verdict: Good

Hooray! Another decent Color Blast polish! I haven’t tried enough of them to make a solid judgement, but I’m starting to think that the non crème polishes are the way to go.
