Darker colored polish can cause a chemical reaction between the nail polish's coloring agent and the nail plate, which can cause nails to take on a yellow-ish or orangish color. While it is different for every person, this reaction can occur in a matter of days or within weeks of wearing the nail color. To prevent nails from yellowing or oranging, always use a base coat before polishing. For already yellow or orange nails, soak nails in 1/2 cup of water and juice of one lemon for up to 15 minutes, once a week. As an alternate option, you can try using Sally Hansen's Natural Shine Chamois Nail Buffer to smooth away some of the discoloration. If all else fails, try letting your discolored nails completely grow out. That could take anywhere from four to six months
Good Luck to you! ~Bon

Because they are cheap and have less quality.
They didn't Really change your original nail color to orange, the pigment from the polish is still embeded in your nails (even if the nail polish wasn't orange, there was probably some orange pigment in it)
you should spend the extra 2 bucks to buy a better quality nail polish like Revlon or something, It's worth it

Bon Bons are a very cheap brand of cosmetics. They are for children, actually.. they come in the very small containers and smell like fake make-up. I suggest upgrading! Hope you get the orange off! Try washing your toenails in nail polish remover for awhile.

to avoid situations like that, you need a base coat.
The color you applied was probably dark and the pigment transfered to your nail.
give them a good buff and most of the orange should go away. Apply a good base coat next time, it will make the color stay longer and will protect your nails at the same time.

I think that the best nail polish colour is bright red as it makes your nails look longer, it is bold, and it matches any other colour that you are wearing!

Did you put a bottom coat on your nails? If not polishes may stain your nails.
