R&R Lacquers RESPLENDENT

R&R Lacquers Resplendent

This is the second of the R&R Lacquers glitter toppers from their 'New Black' Collection I was sent to try. Resplendent is a mix of large teal and smaller silver holo circle glitters with a background sparkle of holo teal microglitter. I reviewed R&R Lacquers Elegant in this post last week.

I layered Resplendent over this matte monochrome gradient done with Barry M Silk Nail Paints in Pearl and Manglaze Santorum and Matte is Murder. There are more pictures of this gradient in yesterday's post here:

I think the glitter shades in Resplendent look equally good over the light and dark parts of my nails! I used one coat of Nail Pattern Boldness Glitter Food to smooth the glitter (and the matte of the gradient) then a coat of Seche Vite quick drying topcoat to dry the mani and give it a high gloss finish.

These two macros are both the same nail - but at a slightly different angle - see how the colours in the holo glitter circles change!

Then, since the base started out matte, I thought I'd try a matte topcoat over the finished mani. I used Mavala Color-Matt - I love the way this turned out!

I was sent R&R Lacquers Resplendent for review; the polish is available from R&R Lacquers Etsy Shop.
