Orly FX- Space Cadet

This polish was originally from the cosmic FX line that Orly released in early 2010. Since, this one has made it into the lineup of Orly FX that are sold at retailers like Ulta today. There have been many iterations of the bottle and cap, and mine is the 2013 version.
Orly's FX polishes are at an elevated price from the regular collections, about $12 USD per bottle. Orly explains this difference as adding muscovite micas and finely ground glass to achieve the unique optical properties of these polishes. The finished product is not really a duochrome, but a ceramic-like finish that flashes a few different colors using the glass, mica and colored base.
Space Cadet is a gray-green base with (we'll call them particles) that flash pink and gold in the light. The overall effect is not exactly like a duochrome, but is pretty cool nonetheless. The formula is just the right viscosity, which makes application very smooth and even. My biggest gripe with the polish, however, is the long dry time involved. Anyways, this is a very unique polish that would be a great compliment to any collection.
