Hey look, I blogged! Sorry it’s been awhile folks. I am dealing with some awful tendinitis in my right arm, which is preventing me from doing a lot of my normal activities, including picking up a camera that weighs a ton. But I was going crazy waiting to swatch fall stuff, so here I am. But I AM trying not to do too much because tendonitis can take months to fully heal, Boo!
Today I have the ORLY Dreamscape Fall 2019 Collection for you. This collection features six new shades in cremes, metallics and shimmers. It’s a soft, muted color palette and I am really digging it.
The ones with a metallic finish did show some brush strokes, so it’s key to use thin, even coats. Otherwise there were no problems and they were 2-3 coats.
Free Fall
Free Fall is a very pale almost-lilac silver with silver shimmer. This is three thin coats and a little brush stroke-y.
Ethereal Plane
Ethereal Plane is light pink with purple shimmer. This is three thin coats.
Astral Projection
Astral Projection is a medium dove grey creme. In the bottle you can see some faint silver shimmer, but on the nails it looks like a creme. This is three thin coats.
Dreamweaver
Dreamweaver is a light rose pink creme. This is two coats.
Air of Mystique
Air of Mystique is a deep metallic teal. This is one of the ones prone to showing brush strokes. This is two coats.
Into The Deep
Into The Deep is a dark charcoal grey creme. This is two coats.
Overall I think this is a really nice and fairly unique fall collection. Most of these are not your typical fall shades, so I like that. I also like the dusty, muted thing many of these colors have going on. My personal favorites are Free Fall and Astral Projection.
You can find the ORLY Dreamscape Fall 2019 Collection at Ulta and in stores now.
Are you seeing anything here that tempts you?

Hope your arm feels better!
Thank you!
Astral Projection and Ethereal Plane catch my eye … I like Air of Mystique but have some colors that are similar to that. Take it easy with that tendinitis and give yourself a chance to heal – 🙂
Thank you!
I like Air of Mystique and Into the Deep but I feel like they remind me of the recent Essie Serene Slates collection. Thank you for searching, hope you’re healing is speedy!
Ah yeah I can see that. Thanks!
So happy to see your swatches again and I hope your arm fully heals soon. I had tendinitis in my wrist for many years and it is miserable.
I loved the first three colors, but they are similar enough to ones I already have that I can’t justify purchasing them. The whole collection is beautiful though.
I’ve been in the mood for pinks lately so Ethereal Plane and Dreamweaver are appealing to me now. Hope your arm is feeling better soon. Tendonitis is just no fun.
Free Fall is super pretty, based on the bottle shots I’ve seen I was not interested, but love it! Usually shimmer doesn’t stand out super well in lighter colors, but that was done perfectly!
I hope your tendinitis heals soon, how miserable.
I really love all of them!!!
Hi Kelly, I often read your blog posts in the Bloglovin app. Does that get registered somehow as a view? Or do I need to click the “view original post” button to make sure you know I’m watching and enjoying what you put up?
Also, I really really love Ethereal Plane! I’m into the soft pinks lately..
I believe it does count, but feel free to read it however you want! 🙂
At first the doctors also thought I had tendinitis in my shoulder, but after 4.5 months i am finally having a cuff repair! Surgery is scheduled in October. So I’m temporarilly “out of the Office” when it comes to nailpolishes. Instead of polish swatching I will be polish watching, haha! I hope you will feel better soon! And I love your swatches?
