I received this as a gift along with a nail salon gift card a few years ago. I checked the China Glaze website and this is still available. In fact, it looks almost an orangy-red to me on their website.
I remember when I applied this, it almost looked like a pink-red on the first coat. When I applied the second coat, it turned into a beautiful red creme. Even my pics, to me, somewhat look orangy. Maybe it's JUST ME. IDK.

Again excuse any messes on my fingers. These are with 2 coats of Vermillion and NO top coat! It's just that shiny without it!

I am loving this color all over again. I'm thinking now of maybe doing either some water marbling with this or using this as a base for some fauxnading. I usually only wear this shade when I'm getting in the spirit for college football season. LoL.
You can also check out
Pretty Random's blog for her description/pics of this shade. It's the 3rd one down on that post. I think her picture is a bit more accurate to what this color really is.
TOODLES Y'ALL!!!
Real vermillion pigment is not a pure red. It's an orange-red. More red than orange, but still definitely some orange in it. So a polish called Vermillion should be exactly that.
