We are almost to Friday, hang on just a little longer!
On this Thursday morn’ I have some of the ORLY Breathable Treatment + Color shades. This is a somewhat new line which is free of many common nail chemicals, animal ingredients, is Halal certified, gluten-free, and you don’t have to use a base coat or top coat. They also infused it with argan oil, pro-vitamin B5 and vitamin C.
I had been wanting to check these out for a bit so I picked up a few colors that looked nice on the Ulta site. Turns out they made a really nice color palette all together! The formula was a little on the more watery side with a couple of these, but I managed to use just two coats with every shade, and I had no problems at all.
Fresh Start
Fresh Start is a pale mint creme.
Morning Mantra
Morning Mantra is a pale sky blue creme.
Just Breathe
Just Breathe is a lavender creme. Actually I can see very slight hidden shimmer in this one which isn’t apparent in the bottle and barely on the nail. So basically, I call it a creme.
Detox My Socks Off
Detox My Socks Off is a medium teal green creme.
De-Stressed Denim
De-Stressed Denim is a deep, dusty denim blue creme.
Aren’t these pretty? I love all five of these shades and together they make me happy when I look at them. I love a good color palette! I was impressed with the formula, but I would still probably wear a top coat with them just to make them that much more shiny and longer-lasting.
You can find ORLY Breathable Treatment + Color at Ulta, Beauty Plus Salon and other places its sold, and they are $8.99 each.
Have you tried any of these or do you want to now?

The colors are so pretty!
I’m so into pastels lately and these are really lovely. I really want to get Just Breath. I love that little bit of shimmer!
These are my kinds of shades! Thank you so much for pointing out that the shimmer I can see in the macro shots of Just Breathe do not show up on the nail as visible to the naked eye. That’s the kind of detail I really appreciate because I’ve bought a few shimmer shades based on macro shots where bloggers did not mention hidden shimmer and I was disappointed. I’m also loving the little box that pop up over the picture with the name of the color! That’s awesome and solves the “Does this blogger post the color name BEFORE the picture or AFTER?” problem I often have. No more confusion!
The mint and the teal are awesome!
Hi Kelly! The Maybelline Powder Matte lipstick review is gone. I hit the link in your email to read the review and got the dreaded 404 message. Just wanted you to know as Iām anxious to hear what you thought about these.
It’s back! Sorry it posted a day early by accident so I re-posted today. š
Very nice shades!! Just Breathe was my favorite.. I do have a couple of the first shadesthat came out and have great formulas.. š
These are really pretty. But I have to ask, does gluten in nail polish actually do anything for people that are allergic or sensitive to gluten? I’m asking seriously.
Just Breathe is lovely! Its interesting to have these polishes come out now. I’m certainly happy to have more options that area healthy for nails
