Aly Loves Lacquer

Today we have another pretty Essie polish, Ballet Slippers. I got this from a blog sale, and I really like it. Ballet Slippers is a sheer, milky white. It seems to have a very, very slight pink hue to it. Essie does a great job with milky colors, like their famous Marshmallow. I wore Ballet Slippers to work and felt like it looked very ladylike. 
I really liked this. It reminds me of a hyped up version of Orly Robo Romance. Which way do you prefer?

Golden Rose is a Turkish brand of nail polish and nail care products. They are gaining some notoriety for their holos, and you can see one I've swatched here. They also do lots of other colors, including some nice glitters. Golden Rose With Protein 290 is a fun glitter. It has star glitters, and smaller hex glitters, many with a holographic shine.

Here are 2 coats of Golden Rose With Protein 290 over 2 coats of Essie Flirt.



I really think Golden Rose deserves more recognition. I have not been disappointed with any of their products thus far. This is a really fun glitter and I think it looks great.

Do you have any Golden Rose polishes? What do you think?

Golden Rose is a Turkish company that makes a lot of great holos at reasonable prices. I bought this and the other polishes in my haul from their US website. They offer free shipping over $20, and it is pretty fast too. I really recommend buying some Golden Rose holos. They aren't the strongest out there, but they are cheaper and still very beautiful.




Golden Rose 109 is described as lilac on the website, and I think that is a good description. In fact, the color is remarkably close to OPI DS Diamond, and could be considered a dupe. I'll be doing a comparison post soon. These pictures are 3 coats Golden Rose Paris Holographic 109 and 1 coat Seche Vite.

Once again, I seriously recommend this brand. They have some great polishes and prices.
