NOTD: Golden Rose Classic Metallic No.08

Pin It Now!
On to the nail stuff!


Ever since I laid my eyes on the Golden Rose Metallic collection, No.08 was one that I just knew I had to have.  See the others I got HERE.
This one's one of those awesome colours, a metallic but a green/blue duochrome. I mean, look at that colour shift! For most part it shows up as the green you see in the above photo, but when you play with angles, you'll really see this lacquer flash blue.
The formula on this one is normal, with 2 coats to opacity, it dried in a normal time. I sort of wished that this one would have been a one-coater so that I could stamp with it, but no such luck.
This one reminds me of Sephora's Moody Woman (see swatch HERE) but I don't have it with me at this time so I can't do a proper comparison. I think this one's finish is more metallic and brush-stroke-y but I might like it better. It can also be compared to Missha HGR01.

Till next time!

    1. Well I'm sure you'll be able to find it easier in Europe than my other friends in North America.

    1. I seem to be drawn to shades like this with a similar colour shift because I've noticed that I have a few now.

  8. Besides Sephora's Moody Woman, it really reminds me of Deborah Milano Shine Tech Scarabee Effect polishes, too.
    But...Talking about bottles, Golden Rose ones are surely the winners!!!
    I'm not so much into greens, but I like this one.

    1. It's funny you say that because I picked up a couple of the Deborah Milano ones randomly while in Greece but they are still untried.
