Pretty & Polished Rust Have Red

Nothing To Disclose

Last year, I decided to purchase a mystery grab bag of indies, not knowing what brands or colors would be included. In my bag was Pretty & Polished Rust Have Red, a brownish red holographic polish. At first I didn't want to keep it but I swatched it on a nail wheel and was pleasantly surprised.

I used a base coat of Duri Rejuvacote, 2 coats of polish and finished with Glisten & Glow H K Girl top coat. Even though this is listed as a "jelly", I didn't need more than 2 coats of polish to be opaque on the nail.


This photos is from my light box, and it's how it looks most of the time - a rusty red. It's pretty unique in my collection, as I can't think of any other colors like it off hand. I wonder if this was inspired by the Marsala, the 2015 Pantone color of the year, or if this was more of the 2012 trend of oxblood red. Either way, it's a pretty little thing and office appropriate for me.


This polish also needs a shot in the sun to show off all the holographic sparkle - scattered if you will. Overall this polish ended up staying with me, and I'm looking forward to wearing it more often.
