I have been eyeing up the A England Ballerina collection for a while so when I came by Dancing with Nureyev second hand I was very excited to try it. It went on straight after my Christmas mani came off (which was Deborah Lippmann Ray of Light for the curious). I am showing you two coats with an accent nail of a sponged tip over white.
When the sun came out for a few minutes I ran around the house trying to find my camera to capture a sun shot so you could see the amazing holo contained within this polish- just look at my index and middle fingers!
This polish appears a cornflower blue with holo most of the time but after a couple of days wear I noticed that it has a violet duo chrome hidden within as well (like Ascalon). You can see it in the photo below quite clearly. And to add to the awesomeness you can still see glints of holo even in quite grey light.
I love how the holo picked up in this last photo- just gorgeous.
I am very glad I got hold of this polish and will definitely be considering others from the range shortly. The formula was excellent as is the trend with A England polishes. I will hopefully be trying this out in a full gradient very soon so look out for that :).
This looks like such an amazing holo -- so much rainbow! And the bluey-gray color it is without sunlight is gorgeous too!
