Rimmel: Shirley Temple
Juicy orange with glass flecks

"Shirley Temple" is the fourth polish from the five polish collection I have already shown you some of. I think the collection came out around 2013 and it was really popular here at the time. The collection was called "Cocktail Colour".

Rimmel claims on the bottle that this is a one coater and that the one coat dries in 60 seconds. I have already found out that there is no way that these are one coaters. I ended up with two coats of "Shirley Temple" to achieve full opacity. The drying time is good, but it takes a couple of minutes more than 60 seconds for it to dry.

I think this juicy orange called for a stamp with citrus fruits. I dapped a bit of pastel yellow onto my nails and then I stamped with black. The black was a mistake, I really regret that. I should have stamped with white instead. But done is done, and you live and you learn. The citrus fruit stamp is from the stamping plate "Fruit BP-X45".

Here's the final result, including a layer of topcoat.

I still think that the citrus fruit theme was a great idea, even though the black kind of overpovered it.

Here's "Shirley Temple" alone; two coats and no topcoat. It's s super delicious colour and finish.

There was a time where I never wore orange, because they all seemed to be Autumn-toned. This is so delicious and cool that I had no problems wearing it.

  1. I like to see this kind of polish on your nails, but it's definitely not for me, simply because I don't like orange (neither yellow...), but I would definitely wear your final manicure on my nails very gladly, it looks beautiful! :-)

    1. I am so glad to hear that! The black was a little "wild" but yes, I could definitely see it on your nails :)
