I found these Golden Rose polishes from a discount basket at a local store for 50 cents a bottle and decided to buy the blue shade number 103. I figured that for 50 cents it wouldn’t be such a great financial loss if it ended up being something awful. Also my 9 yr old niece gladly takes all the nail polish bottles I give her so I wouldn’t have to throw it in the trash either.
This polish ended up surprising me positively though. It applied well and was opaque with just one coat (I still used two coats). Dry time was very quick and I really like the color too. Without a top coat this dried to a nice velvet-y semi matte finish. I don’t have too many blue polishes so this one got to move into my polish drawer and make friends with other cheap polish bottles ;)

This polish is amazing! I only have a few Golden Rose and I think they are really good despite their low price! I wish I could find them here :(
This one is amazing, I have such a big love for semi-mattes and mattes! Plus that shade of blue is gorgeous!
Yeah, I was really surprised by the great quality of this one :) And it was so well pigmented that it might work for stamping too. I also have a green one from the same Matte Velvet range that I haven't tried yet. I hope it's as cool as this one is!
