A England - Dragon, swatch

It's Friday and I figured that I could join Holo Friday with the first A England polish I bought; Dragon. It looked so lovely on swatches. Now it sounds like I bought it recently but it is more than a year ago I bought it, maybe turning into two years now. And it has just been laying in my Helmer drawer, waiting..you see, it looks a bit boring in the bottle..The moss green color isn't boring but I didn't see any holo.

Now I've finally got around wearing it and it looks much more holographic on the nails than in the bottle. However it's a very scattered holo, no lines of the rainbow spectra. Anyhow, below is two of the most easy coats ever, the formula is like butter. As I said the color is moss green and the polish has many faces. In the bottle there is some golden duochrome tendencies but that doesn't transcribe onto the nails, even though I guess the warmness in the color come from that. In clouded shadow the holo looks gray (as holo always do when there's no light to reflect in it) and the green feels cold. All in all it's a beautiful color.







Do you like A England in general, or maybe you even have Dragon? What is your oldest untried in your collection?

    Dragon är så fin! Den får verkligen utrymme att synas på dina naglar också! Kanske dags att köpa ett par A England för mig också, och förhoppningsvis inte ha dem liggande i år utan att testa dem ;)

      Tack så mycket! Ja, jag testade kort därefter min andra flaska A England efter denna, och det var mina två det... Men ja, om du köper kanske du ska testa dem snabbare än jag... ;) Och jag kan nog tänka mig någon till flaska från märket också för den delen.

      Ja, mossgrönt är nog den finaste grönnyansen som finns! Hade den funnits en smula mer holo så hade jag varit in heaven :D Nu är det bara nästan.. ;)

    Jag tycker det är jättevackert! Men det är klart, holoeffekten är ju rätt sparsam...

    Beautiful color, a Dragon indeed! I really like it, bet it would look even better if the holo effect was stronger

      Yes, dragon colored indeed ;) haha
      But I totally agree with you, this moss green color combined with stronger holo, and it would have been beyond amazing. :D But we can't have it all, can we? ;) Or the search continue at least.. ;)

    Åh vilken vacker grön! Den får mig att tänka på skog & mystiska små varelser som typ troll & drakar! =)

    Det är ett jättefint lack, det är bara lite synd att det inte är mer holo i det. Jag älskar färgen!
