This one is called Royal Mews and I heard it will be released on it's own later in the year.
Basically it's a pretty subtle silver holographic polish.
This is 2 coats in some rare English winter sunlight. You can see some peach and pale green shining through.
In fact, I thought it looked better when the light is a bit lower as the colours come out a bit more:
But in my opinion it is best in bright artificial light:
Application was smooth and dry time decent. It took 3 thin coats to acheive opacity but I didn't get any bald spots like sometimes happens with holographic polishes. I did top this one with a topcoat and it made no difference to the holographic quality.
I think this is a nice introduction to holo's if you don't already have any, otherwise it's a nice work appropriate polish. I like my holo's a bit more in your face so after a day I topped mine with GOSH Holographic (which I will show you in another post). This made a good base and overall I think it's a nice addition to my stash.
Hope you enjoy :-)
Ooohhh some good swatches! So glad you are blogging! X
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what this one looked like on the nail. Nice but subtle. Nice to see you decided to blog too :D
ReplyDeleteAhh, thanks ladies. x I was really lucky to get a sneek peak of sun that day! I forgot to mention, this polish wore well too, I had it on for 3 days with minimal wear and a small chip on my thumb!
ReplyDeleteI'm actually really digging the subtlety of the holo in this! Nice swatches =)
