Golden Rose Matte
Velvet ~ 107
Deep reddish
purple with shimmer and a silky finish
This post features the last
Golden Rose Matte Velvet polish I received in the previous swap with lovely Aylin from Posh Nail Art, namely the purple
one.
This polish is just as
impressive as the two others I’ve tried – the green and the red. You can see
them by clicking here
and here.
The formula is perfect, the pigmentation is great - I simply can’t come up with
anything bad about this polish.
Here is a pic of two coats –
no top coat.
I’m totally in love with
this. I think it’s amazing that you can make a semi matte polish that actually
has shimmer in it!
Then I tried something
that’s new to me: Double stamping! First I stamped the design that looks like a
gradient from Bundlemonster’s plate BM-301, and I used Sally Hansen InstaDri
“Whirlwind White” as my stamping polish. I didn’t take a pic of that step.
I went directly to stamping
number two. I used stamping plate DRK-A, and the same Golden Rose polish that I
also used as my base colour. The design is an all nail design with hearts in a
lattice, but since I stamped with the same colour as my base, it only shows up
in the white.
I topped it with a generous
coat of Poshé top coat, and my mani was done:
And here is a pic from
another angle.
I love this! I *have* to try
this technique with other colours and other designs. What do you say – isn’t
this cool?

DeleteI think revlon also has a matte with shimmer emerald city I think is the name. This one is also gorgeous . Cute nail design.
ReplyDeleteMatte and shimmer together is an amazing combo, I think! I think I've got a red Revlon that does the same, so I bet you're right about the Emerald City :)
Deleteoh wow, what a lovely color!
