Dance Legend ~ Matte #631
and Rio #4
Red with stars and stripes
Today I’m going to show you two of my Dance Legends. It has quickly
become a favourite brand, they make fabulous holos but they also do basic
polishes and glitters.
See what I did with two of them:
The red base colour is #631 from the matte collection. It’s a classic
red with shimmer, and it dries up matte. Two coats is what it takes and the
drying time is really good. You can literally see paint dry! :D
This next picture is taken with flash so you can see the pretty shimmer.
On my ring finger and my index finger I’ve got one coat of Rio #4. It’s a clear base with neon pink glitters, hexes,
squares and stars. I didn’t fish for the stars of course, as always it’s just
one dip in the bottle per nail here. The drying time is on the slow side, but a
fast dry topcoat fixes that little challenge.
On my pinkie and my middle finger I made some stripes with a shocking
pink striper and black. There’s a layer of topcoat to finish the mani too.
Here’s what Matte #631 looks like on its own. It’s two coats. I imagined
it darker when I bought it, but I’m really happy with this colour! Finally a
red without golden shimmer :D
Here are the two polishes and the two stripers I used:
Do you like my stars and stripes?
