Orly is very kind, I am very satisfied with your service; my extensions look natural. I am happy with your service.thank you

My sister and I had such a great experience at ORLY Color Labs! We each made our own custom nail polish and our mixologist made sure we were 100% satisfied with our final shades. Definitely recommend! read more

My girlfriend surprised me with a date here to make our own nail polish color! It was such a fun experience and Riyah was so so so sweet! She worked hard to perfect our colors and you could tell she was an expert. It was an intimate setting and I loved being able to really indulge in everything the store had to offer. I would definitely return and bring more friends. Such a cute and exciting time! Highly recommend bringing your friends for a fun time! Street parking is available everywhere. It's located in a good place to walk around too! read more

About a month ago I went in and as you may see below I left very unhappy. I was offered another opportunity to remake my polish over zoom and I loved it. She took her time and explained every step and as I explained what I wanted she offered great suggestions. This was what I was looking for. So ORLY I take it back, go get this done people and take your time and ask questions the experts can make your true color happen. I also learned that ORLY follows such strong principles they are removing a certain color of orange and replacing it with a safer color orange. I love that information, that alone makes me want to only use ORLY. Thanks for making my experience a happy one. read more

Such a cute/fun and unique experience! One of my Bridesmaid gifted me this experience and we had a fun time customizing our nail polish colors. They charge $24/bottle and she was a little disappointed that we couldn't actually make the color ourselves, but instead it was done behind the glass wall by the person working there. The price is definitely a little steep for what you get (the whole process is under 10 mins), but it's definitely a unique gift idea. The quality of polish is also pretty good, just make sure to get a good top coat ;) Personally I was really happy with how my color came out. My friend took a few tries to get her color right, but thankfully the person working there was able to get the color she was looking for. read more

Booked a session for a bachelorette party activity and it was a fun experience! We each got to make a custom nail polish color and take home a bottle as a souvenir. You can pick what goes into your bottle and name it afterwards too. It may take awhile since one person goes at a time but if you book out the store for the event, it is a nice private experience. read more

Fantastic experience making my own custom nail polish from a brand I love: ORLY! This is definitely one of those "I'm so glad I live in L.A." experiences because it's hard to find this at all elsewhere. The Color Labs are along Melrose Avenue (hip shopping district in LA) in a small storefront that's very bright and open inside. You create a custom color by using an iPad, which guides you through different features, including adding sparkle, pearlescence, hues and undertones, etc. Then you watch the mixologist make your request into a reality as they have a big palette with lots of different colors and powders. They mix it using what looks like a milk frother, and then they show you and you can make adjustment to it if you like. You also get to name your color and they apply a custom label with your cool polish name. On top of the custom nail color bottle, you also get a free top coat or top/bottom coat. It costs more than buying a single bottle at Ulta or Target, but it totally makes sense because you get to customize the color and it's a fun experience overall. Tips: - You have to make an online appointment. When I went, they were only doing one appointment at a time. - Parking: metered street parking out front so arrive early before your appointment. read more

Great experience. I took my 7 year old and 12 year old daughters and we had so much fun designing our own colors!

I'm in love! I made an online zoom appt and made 6 colors. The mixologist works with you until you are 110% happy with the color! They explain the process & what different mixins will do to the colors. They are located in LA and shipping was super fast (to Chicagoland)! When I opened the package I was blown away! They were better than I could've expected! All the colors were exactly what I had in my mind! Oh you also get to name your polish! For the service & product I think pricing is acceptable (their bottle size .6 oz is slightly larger than the industry standard of .5 oz). They also ship each polish in a special container (collectible) so it won't break. They also have a physical shop in LA so if you're in the area go check it out! read more

UPDATE: Orly's customer service made this right in a huge way that was totally beyond what I thought they might do! I am hugely impressed and grateful for their generosity! This was an activity that I was looking forward to! I have so many Orly products and expected the same quality polish from this lab. However, although my custom color was exactly as I wanted, the ultimate resulting product had zero shine. My custom color was as dull on my nails as it looked on the sampled paper towel swatch. Also, the final product felt thicker than my usual Orly crèmes. The shop is decorated in a very fun, quirky way which I liked a lot. The mixologist was excellent, but I felt rushed because she had been giving a manicure when we arrived for our appointment and that client was waiting. All in all we enjoyed this but I would not suggest that my friends try this because the polish itself is flat and lacking luster. It reminded me of White Out. read more

What a beautiful experience! In the midst of all that's going on, this outing was beyond enjoyable! I made a reservation for my birthday to create custom Orly polish on a Saturday morning (the day the election was finalized- hence the polish name choices you see in the photo). Emma was the Orly lab specialist and she walked us through the entire process. We had the whole place to ourselves! She also took our temperature and provided hand sanitizer. I will definitely book again!! read more

I'm giving Orly Color Labs 5 stars because it's an experience you can't get anywhere else, I got pretty much what I was hoping for, and I had a really good time! That being said, I do have some critiques. I'm big into nail polish, and Orly is one of my favorite brands, so I went in really knowing what I wanted. Since it's Orly, I decided to make variations on my favorite Orly shades, Synthetic Symphony and Muy Caliente, and I was disappointed that there wasn't an easy way to replicate an existing Orly shade. For Muy Caliente I wanted to add a gold shimmer, and I wanted Synthetic Symphony as a jelly polish, but there was no way to use those colors as a base to make a new color. The polishes we made were very close to how I wanted them to be, especially my take on Muy Caliente, but I wish we didn't have to do so much trial and error to make a color Orly already has. I also wish there were more mix-ins, like glitter and holo. And I wish the store sold more Orly products. I would have loved to have seen a display with the Lisa Frank collection, or the Kelli Marissa polishes. I couldn't even buy the new "Turn it Down" glitter polish, which was pretty disappointing. I understand that the lab is supposed to be more of an experience and less of a store, but that's my opinion. Anyway, had a great time, and will probably go here again! I do love the polishes I made today and was so glad to have the experience. read more

If you're like me, finding the right nail polish color is a never-ending process- you think you've found the perfect shade...but then it dries to a different color- or the color is right but the formula sucks. Luckily Orly has opened a fun shop where you can customize your own shade and name it for $20- plus a complimentary manicure! The first step is using a touchscreen to pick colors/moods you like, then you can lighten or darken the color, then checkout when you have found the right shade. Don't worry, if you're not quite sure you picked the right shade you are able to give them direction while they make it- I chose a pink hue and wanted to make sure it wasn't *too* pink- the kind worker was happy to add more white and mix it a couple times then swatch until I was happy. I had the perfect neutral milky pink for summer! Next up was the free manicure, she did a great job and was meticulous so there were no smudges or streaks. Although I buy & use several nail polish brands, Orly is one I find offers the best chip resistant formula that dries nicely. After waiting a few minutes for them to dry they were done and I was on my way. Definitely stop by if you would like your perfect nail color and a little self-care time. They are doing special events too, check their website. read more

Fun experience but wanted to offer some feedback. Pros: Experience: This shop is beautiful. It is a one of a kind experience and is definitely instagram worthy. Product Related: The polish is great quality, the shop is beautiful and naming and creating your own polish is truly a one of a kind experience. Cons - Suggestions: Experience: It wasn't as interactive as we thought it would be. They only have manicurists for special events. Maybe they can look into partnering with local nail shops on days when they don't have a nail technician on site. The first thing we wanted to do was see how the polish looked and a swatch on paper isn't very exciting. Product Related: They do not offer glitter. They only have about 15 base colors to start with and there's only so much dimension you can create with the number of colors available. Don't come in with expectations of a very specific color. read more

We came here at 3pm on 3/13/2021 for a Groupon appointment. This was our first time so we didn't know what to expect. The mixologist explained the process to us and we designed our own colors. I didn't catch her name so if management could let me know her name that would be appreciated. She mixed the colors after asking us questions on what our expected result was. It was exactly what we were going for. There was no tip jar and I had already paid for the Groupon. Ultimately, we left without tipping because we didn't know if it was customary to tip the mixologist or how to tip. Please let me know about tipping practices here. Overall, it was a fun experience. read more

I made an appointment about 3-4 weeks for my birthday. I came in last weekend and it was a little busy- there was an event for Birds of Prey and their limited edition polish. I thought there would be more options of colors to choose from so I felt that the range was limited for me. You can adjust the color once you get to the back and there's no rush to get it right. I felt a little neglected/left to decide on my own what would go great with my nail polish... but I also understand that there was an event that day. I would have done it on a different day had I known. It's a fun experience and i would recommend it for any nail polish addict. :P read more

A MUST DO! Great day out and experience, I'll prolly have a collection of shades by year end. Love this place! Great staff and service! Orly is always a go to polish and this shoppe is a plus. read more

so disappointed.....i ordered a neon turquoise color but i got a sky blue. im not sure if it was the mixer's fault or it was that orly can deliver on what was promised and cant make this color. i have seen other nail polish brands that make the color i want and i thought paying a premium price for this nail polish would give me what i wanted. the mixer girl insisted the color was turquoise even though you could see thru the camera it was a subdued color. so i was already disappointed when she was mixing but thought that maybe it would be the right color in person. it was not. i wish i could get a refund read more

So much fun! I loved how our colors came out! The person making our colors was knowledgeable and explained to us how different shimmers and pearls would change the color! They kept us in the loop and showed up every step of the way so we would end up exactly with the color we wanted. read more

From some videos I thought the experience would be very linear as it seems a bit preset in what kind of color recipes they have. I came in with an exact color and reference to what I wanted. The color selecting process on the iPad had a lot more options than I thought and mixologists were very experienced to go off book a little bit to better match the reference I had. Felt very worth it for a super unique experience, especially if the color you have in mind is really hard to find. The nail polish Formula itself is nice because it's opaque and not too thick. read more

I was looking for something creative to do while in Los Angeles. I fell upon this place in a YouTube video. The main problem that occurred was the fact that it was too understaffed. Between the people who actually had reservations and the people who just walked in, the whole store's operations could be held in the hands of just one mixologist. I felt bad for the lady but this made the wait very long for people who had reservations. The whole experience when you get up to the nail polish bar is actually very cool. You take a color-drived personality test to choose your color, which makes a recipe for the lady at the nail polish bar. So now, all you have to do is watch the magic of the mixing happen. Overall, a pretty fun experience, but the company can't really rely on one mixologist with the amount of people coming through the store minute by minute. read more

I love this place!! Super cute nail colors! The ladies here very knowledgeable about making colors work. I love love love this place.

I'm so excited to share this manicure today! My order from Orly Color Labs arrived this week and it's been all I could do to not paint my nails right away! I've been wanting to try mixing my own polish for some time and their polish mixing videos are such calming videos to watch- I'm low key addicted to watching them! So when they ran a birthday special I jumped on it and ordered a bottle of polish. You can match a crème color on your own and order that, or if you want special customization like shimmer or other additions like having one of their pros help to mix, you can do a zoom call. With their help I was able to create the pale lavender of my dreams- it has a blue shimmer running throughout that is gorgeous in sunlight, but indoors it reads as a pale crème polish. This is an opaque two coats and I couldn't be happier with how this turned out. Thank you @orlycolorlabs for this beautiful polish! Now I'm dreaming of a pale blue... pale pink... all with the same blue shimmer. I might need to acquire a collection of these! read more

Why do you need an appointment to buy one of the already mixed nail polishes. The lady was so rude to me when I walked in today, not knowing that you have to make an appointment. she wouldn't even let me get a question in. The entrance doesn't even say "appointment only." So lame, such a scam. Buy olive and June instead! read more

This place is absolutely amazing! Such a fun environment. Emma was our mixologist and she was so awesome! She was super patient and helpful while mixing our colors together. Love the app design, super immersive and easy to navigate. Thanks Orly Color Labs for an unforgettable experience! read more

It's my second time ordering from orly color labs and I truly love the experience, from the process to the result . For both nail polishes I had zoom mixing sessions ,with sweet mixologists . The best part is being able to communicate with the people who are making the polish in front of you, to give them an idea of what you want and everything else afterwards counts as a great experience . read more

I am going to be COMPLETELY HONEST. I am a collector of Nail Polishes since I was very young and I have ALWAYS DREAMT OF MAKING MY OWN COLOR! I was VERY EXCITED that there was a place in LA that can mix your special color. Location: The location is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I loved the bright colors and how everything is well-branded. The decor was impeccable. Everything was spot on. Definitely an instagram worthy photo. Customer Service: This is were I had an issue. When I called over the phone. I had questions in regards to parking. The women who answered the phone was a bit sarcastic and her tone wasn't very helpful. So after finding parking. My mom and I were very excited because of the many YouTubers that have went to this location and got their colors. Unfortunately as we walked in, there was two women on their phones sitting down and asked us immediately if we had appointments and of course I did. They didn't really acknowledge us...didn't really give a proper greeting...they continued to look at their phones and we were standing there not really knowing what to do. My mom and I are very big on customer service and so we were very disappointed with that and to make it our greeting even more unpleasant we asked what exactly we do..she wasn't enthusiastic. She just sounded like a script with no feelings. My mom asked her what else did they offer? And she responded with "well this is it" and my mom had to ask what were these products and then she would just give small information and end the conversation there. I honestly hoped the customer service would be just as amazing as this location because NOW THIS LOCATION IS SPOT ON. Product: I am a nail tech, and I have worked with many different types of polishes. But this custom nail color was honestly not the greatest. The nail polish chipped right away and also the color never really seemed to dry completely. I am disappointed with Orly. Experience overall: I loved their location, it's beautifully decorated. I loved the colors and the wall art. Their customer service can DEFINITELY BE IMPROVED. And product...I really think you might have to re-test the longevity of these polishes. Or maybe lower the price... read more

Getting to mix your own color is super cool but the quality of the nail polish is terrible. It chipped the next day. If you want a color for one evening, its great, but don't expect it to last much longer than that. Also, the polish never seemed to completely dry on my nails and seemed kind of oily. The idea of this place is great, but after that, you're really spending quite a bit of money for the experience not for quality nail polish. read more

Super cute spot for making custom nail polish. I've been here a few times to make gifts for the ladies in my life, and the experience and ambience has always been on-point. The mixologists are super helpful and attentive (I think the lady helping me was named Alex), and they even helped me name my custom colors. Apparently they have interesting event programming too, like pop-ups and speaker series. Gotta check those out. Thanks ORLY Color Labs!! read more
