Catrice Chrome Infusion ~ 04 Unexpected Red

Catrice Chrome Infusion ~ 04 Unexpected Red

Dark red to gold duochrome metallic

Today’s polish was a Christmas gift, just like “Enchanted Camouflage” that I showed you yesterday. Click here to be taken to that post in case you missed it.

Unexpected Red isn’t much of a colour shifter, but the shift is there if you twist your fingers into the right angle in the right amount of light. I didn’t see the shift much in real life and obviously not on my photos either. The polish itself is more of a metallic shimmer and it’s beautiful.

I used two coats for my mani. The coverage is really good and the drying time is pretty good too.

The stamping plate I used is called BP-L018 and I stamped with El Corazón’s stamping polish “Fragrant Mimosa”, which is golden.

I topped it with Out the Door’s “Northern Lights”, a holo glitter topper which I just love.

Here’s my final manicure. The photo is taken in ordinary daylight, no sun.

This is just the same thing. I think the two colours really complement each other.

And here’s “Unexpected Red” on its own, two coats, no topcoat.

Here are the things I used.
