Alternative - OPI Russian Navy (matte), Dance Legend Fireworks


With glitter polishes, sometimes just layering them over a dark base gives a completely different look to using them alone. Here's one polish that looks completely different!

You probably wouldn't guess it was the same one! This is Dance Legend Fireworks which you can see in Jme's post here where alone, it looks like a purple jelly just full of gold glitter and blue-green iridescent squares.

Instead, I've used a base of OPI Russian Navy matte - no real reason for the matte except that I wanted a fast drying polish in a complementary blue shade. It did end up such a deep shade that it's practically black though!

I then did one layer of Dance Legend Fireworks over the top and that's what you get! A nice sparkly night scene.

The formula was consistent with the other polishes from the City Lights collection - a bit on the thick side but not tooo long on drying time and dense with glitter so no issues with having to fish.

After seeing Jme's post though, I'd really like to try wearing this one on it's own!
