Post-lockdown, we understand much better what our mothers told us about the drabness of the War, when everything lovely was on ration, and days merged into one other against a thrum of fear and anxiety. 

So is it any wonder, as we come blinking into the light, that we all seem to be craving colour, in all its rainbow glory? And certainly, that’s where this new Orly Electric Escape Collection scores, with six eye-popping shades to put a smile on your face and a slick of bright colour on your fingers or toes. 

Two fab greens, a bright orange, a deep purple, hot pink and a blazing coral are all available in Orly’s signature bottles, which feature a completely genius patented Gripper Cap, twisting off to reveal the 600-bristle Genius Brush, which fans out to cover nails so smoothly, with the help of 600 teeny bristles. 

All six are available in either the traditional Orly Nail Lacquer formulation, or the GELFIX 12-free formula, a vitamin-boosted gel manicure system that they promise lasts up to 21 days. 

With a set in the office, we are so overjoyed to be getting our extremities out for others to admire that we may well go ‘full rainbow’, with this lot! (And we LOVE the ‘dot’ effect, below…)

£11.75 each – buy here (at time of press there’s a great deal on the whole set – six polishes for £39.95 instead of £70.50)
