Maybelline Color Show Brocades Nail Polish in Knitted Gold

I was recently in Superdrug browsing the beauty section when I noticed they have the 3 for 2 deal on at the moment. I wanted a Maybelline 24hr Tattoo and so decided to buy one and a collection concealer and for my free item I picked up the new brocades effect by Maybelline, called Knitted Gold. A lot of brands have released a Rose Gold glitter this Autumn and this brocade one was my favourite, closely followed by BarryM. I carried on browsing and ended up picking up another baby lips and a top coat meaning, I was able to buy the BarryM rose gold glitter. Yeah I know, I only bought the other two items to give me an excuse to get both of the polishes for free ! :) 

The Brocades Knitted Gold is a beautiful cloudy polish with tiny pieces of gold glitter and big hexagonal chunks of Rose Rose Gold glitter mixed in. I was expecting it up be fairly clear with a few flex of glitter when applied. So I applied BarryM Red Black first and layered this on top. It's actually quit a thick coating so it created a beautiful gold finish with a dark red tinge to it and chunks of gold glitter sat on top.


 I'm very pleased with the finish and it screams christmas to me. There's only six weeks to go which means it's perfectly fine to feel Christmassy now :) 

 Excited to try this over a pink and also green. I think it will look incredible over both. 

Now I just need to resist the urge to pick up the Essie Rose Gold next time I'm shopping. 

Have you picked up a Rose Gold Polish, if so which one?
