Alter Ego: November Polish of the Month, Open Arms

Another fabulous morning and...it's Friday!! While I am recovering from yesterday's consumption of mass amounts of food and vegging put on the couch, I figured I'd jump on and share another polish post, YAY!  Today's post features a Fan Group Custom! Cynthia from Alter Ego has been making some beautiful monthly polishes for her Facebook Fan Group and the November offering is lovely.  She created Open Arms, inspired by the heartfelt thought that everyone goes in to the holidays being kind and welcoming.  I love that thought and it would be so nice if everyone in the world practiced this.  You can purchase Open Arms this month (or until supply runs out) and it will be $9.50.  Plus you can use my discount code My Nail Polish Obsession for 25% off.  I love a good deal!  I am not sure what Black Friday deals Cynthia has going on, but I do know you'll be able to stack codes!

Open Arms is a coppery-peach shade with soft golden shimmer.  I was a bit worried this would be frosty because it seems heavy with shimmer but it wasn't at all.  In fact it has a nice, borderline metallic look but almost looks like a glossy, satin finish.  Formula was pretty opaque and it applied nice and smooth.  No issues to report!  I think this would be a fab base for some Autumn nail art or even something like a vintage Christmas scene.  So I used 3 thin coats and topcoat.
