Now, when I think of a flattering orange, American Apparel's
Poppy is it.
Man, this is a fabulous colour. It has just the amount of red to stop it looking like tomato soup, but is still a loud and proud orange.
As with all the other American Apparel lacquers I've trialled this week, the formula is sublime. Smooth and easy. Brush is a nonsense but I'm sure you're all sick of me whinging about that.
If you haven't tried these, you need to. The formula is - ok, yes I'm going to go there - as
good as
Illamasqua and
RBL. No fooling contender.
