Rococo Gold Leaf nail polish top coat



It looks a bit manky over my bare nail (swatched today in SpaceNK), but try to imagine this Rococo gold leaf top coat over a deep red or any other dark shade. If you missed Baby Goth Girl, over a blackened red this will give a very similar (and I think, perhaps even better) look. I think it'd look incredible over the Black Sakura shade, also by Rococo. I think we all know how this ends...yes, they're going on my Christmas List.

The gold leaf top coat is £22, and the nail polishes are £12. Available at SpaceNK (image of bottle is from SpaceNK.co.uk.)

  5. Hi Inner Belle - I certainly haven't seen anything similar to this. I totally agree with you :)

    Hi Emma - yes, a really nice change from glitter top coats.

    Hey Eliza - It's lovely. I'm so tempted just to buy it myself. x

    Hi Helen - thought of you with this one! I like that the gold flakes distribute quite evenly over the nail when you apply, they don't clump. It's so interesting, and a fantastic look for winter. One for the wedding, maybe?

  6. It may be gimmicky and expensive but I've been suckered right in. Space NK is having a US style Friends, Family discount thing this week, will get it then. ;)

  8. Hi Su-pah - that pretty much sums up my feelings on it. I know it's expensive for what it is, but I want it!

    Hey Olivia - it is interesting, isn't it? I've not seen anything else like it.

  13. Hi Music - yes, same here. Although the more I think about it, the more I think that it might be a need :)

  14. Love the rococo range - I treated myself to the shade starlet (curtest of the discount code!), and its beautiful! This gold leaf topcoat looks so pretty...

  15. ITS BACK IN STOCK THE GOLD LEAF !
    I have been waiting for 5 days counting down for it.
