I love this polish!!! But it needed some tweaking before I could use it. I diluted it with my Zoya Renew and I used the Essie Matte About You over, then finished it off with quick dry drying oil and and it's lasted me all week. It's a really pretty gunmetal gray with sparkles and it's just as beautiful with a traditional glossy topcoat as it is matte. This is my new favorite fall nail color. I can see myself wearing this for a very long time.

This is my new favourite nail polish for sure. I was a bit worried after reading these reviews, but for some reason, I had a much better experience with it. I used a base coat, but no topcoat since it's a matte polish, and so far it has been on for 4 days and looks exactly the same as it did after I put it on. This is saying a lot, since I'm a compulsive hand-washer.
You guys can't possibly understand how amazed I am. Manicures never last this long for me.
EDIT: I got tired of the matte and put a topcoat over the Loredana, and now it's this gorgeous grey with what seems to be purple and blue shimmer. I looooovvvvee this polish.

Loredana is a matte gunmetal grey.
Con: it chips easily, even under the best circumstances.
Pro: it applies smoothly and opaquely in just one coat and dries almost immediately.
While the chipping is a bit irritating, I find the opacity and quick dry time to be worth the hassle. I love that I can just brush it on and go. Also, I like to change my nails often, so it's not a big deal to me if a mani only lasts a day or two.

This nail polish went on smoothly for me & I liked the fact that it dried so quickly but I didn't like the fact that it took three coats to get a decent color pay-off which wasn't a matte gray; I can only describe it as the color of lead. It also does chip very easily. continued >>

Okay, I'm officially giving up matte polishes, and switching to matte top coats. This is the grey matte color in Zoya's matte collection. I didn't have high hopes for it because the application was a mess. It was goopy and tacky because it dried so fast. I mean, you could actually see it drying in seconds, but somehow it corrected itself and was pretty smooth when I was done, and I only needed one coat. However, within the hour it was chipping off, and it wasn't like I was doing dishes or trying to open new DVDs. I guess it's the nature of the beast. Every matte polish I've ever used chipped like crazy. I'm going to pick up a bottle of Essie's Matte About You and use that instead. Hopefully it's better than Orly's Matte Top which was pretty lame.
