Golden Rose with Protein 268 dotted with 269

APPLICATION: Smooth- I really like the gel-ish formula on these
COATS: 2
TOPCOAT?: Not until after nail art.
SOURCE: www.goldenroseusa.com
COMMENTS: I wanted something tamer after my last mani, and this fit the bill. These are both from my more recent purchase of this brand. 268 is a pretty pale peach that for once doesn't look orange on me! I made the dots with 269 and then hours later added white dots in between with my favorite white, Fingerpaints - Paper Mache.



Before topcoat - notice the dots are a little bumpy.

  1. That is a lovely peach! For some reason, I don't think I have a peach-colored nail polish...that needs to be fixed!

  9. wow that looks great! You inspired me to dot my nails! i used a navy polish and dotted a silver grid on my ring fingers. It almost looked like mesh it was hot and I got a lot of compliments on it! Thanks for sharing and inspiring!! <3 Heartlee

  12. Both of these colours are gorgeous! Can you suggest any dupes? Golden Rose doesn't ship internationally :(

  14. This mani is adorable. One of the meanings of my surname is "peach" (a fruit symbolizing longevity and other auspicious meanings in East Asian culture), and I happen to love the color too, but it doesn't look good on me. It totally suits you well though. :)

  15. Thank you for the comments everyone! This really is a unique color in my stash.

    @GildedNails: I'll have another post on the closest things in my stash, but I don't have an exact match for 268...

  16. I really like this. It reminds me of a zig zag stitch. And I love the 'favorites' label. I am going to start using that as a label for mine
