My blue nail polish is for the times I'm feeling a little funky. The backdrop is the back of our velvet couch. Thought it looked sort of studio-esque. Lit by sunlight plus a flashlight on the subject.
For the record, I apologize if there are 137 similar shots of nail polish. It just seemed like a good idea at the time. :)

It's an intersting photo but I do not like the placement of the yellow portion. i find it distracting. If that color was used in a different manner such as part of a color blend or fade in the background then I think it would have been more effective. I like the composition.
Good use of gold at the bottom for contrast. Top contrast is not as vivid but the tight focus helps with that. Topic is fine. Maybe a bit too clean and neat.
I like the color, the luster of the polish but I think I would like a tighter shot on the drip; maybe crop to the first tightening ring on the bottle. Overall I like it.
I find the yellow/orange at the bottom and the background to be hugely distracting. Did you try a black or white background? It would really help isolate your subject
Very nice take on the challenge. I like the color of the nail polish and the glitter effect. That gold strip along the bottom of your background is really going to kill you. I like the background above that, however. It contrasts nicely with your subject.
