I say newest, because there was a gold flakies topcoat a long time ago. It was in vogue right around the time that I started blogging, click here to see it. I used to love it, but I wasn't in love with the price tag. This one retails for about the same ($30) but I did get it for less at my Beauty Supply store, for some reason. I got the last one they had, I really liked the bottle, so I went for it. I liked the formula, but the finish is not glossy, so you must add topcoat to it... errr then it's not really a topcoat eh? more like a gold leaf topper, I guess. This looks really odd to some people, but when they ask and you say "it's real gold", they go "ohhhh" :)

I bought this polish and the new Essie 18K top coat polish. I think I like the one you posted a long time ago. The flakes on it look larger.
ReplyDeleteI really really love this one, but I can't convince myself to get it, that pricetag is just too much:[ Great combination though!!
ReplyDeletei am waiting for mine, love your swatches!
ReplyDeleteDamns that's pretty!
ReplyDeleteit looks great! I saw it in store last week. I wanted to get it but the price is a bit high...however, if I don't get it, I'm pretty sure I'll regret. So I'll probably grab it this week or next week :D
ReplyDeleteI love your combo!
I think we use the same camera ;) Impossible not to get it in the pics of this one!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis is really pretty. A little disappointing that a topcoat is needed for the $30 topcoat. Thank you so much for mentioning that, because other reviews have not.
ReplyDelete@ all: Thanks <3
