Beautiful, beautiful purple I've got from a swap with Karen - thanks again!

Zoya Valerie - stunning deep blue-ish purple colour with reddish duochrome purple flecks which goes to gold colour. I love the contrast between the cold and warm purple and the shimmery particles! Formula was very good as well, I needed two coats for a perfect coverage and polish dried fast.

Don't you just love it when the colour is beautiful AND the formula is great too? This polish is definitely one of my favourites at this time. It reminds me China Glaze Cowgirl Up except CHG has very subtle shimmer.

We all know it -  it is really hard to find the perfect gold polish which would suit your skintone! Well I have the same problem so I hope this post will get you closer to YOUR perfect gold.

I've got here OPI Bling Dynasty, nice ochre toned shimmery gold. I have two coats in the pictures but I think it might need another coat. Application was nice and smooth and with OPI's wide brush also easy. Colour dried fast and removal wasn't very difficult.

I've done a comparison of three gold polishes so you can see the differences between shades and finishes. Hope you'll find your favourite gold soon :)

I've compared OPI Bling Dynasty, Essie Shift Power and Illamasqua Victory. I've reviewed OPI above; Essie Shift Power needed three coats for the full coverage, it is quite streaky and little watery. Not impressed. Illamasqua Victory needed 2 coats, it was really nice to apply and dried fast. My winner :)
