I'm a big fan of Ruffian manicure, it looks so elegant and classy. :) I wanted a gold metallic polish for ages and thanks to Carolina I got it. :i Ruffian mani was officialy combined with black but since I had really bad experience with a Black Out from Black&White collection with plastic finish I decided to pick something different. :i
I don't have a shimmery matte black polish so I picked one of my favorite OPI - We'll Always Have Paris Suede and for base color China Glaze - 2030.
2030 is metallic gold polish, one coater with easy application and with a frosty finish like it's usual for metallic polish. After applying 1 coat of 2030 I added one layer of TC - if you mess up you can use a brush and nail polish remover and remove the mistakes without touching lowest layer of polish.
Then I added 2 coats of We'll Always Have Paris Suede. It's not difficult to create Ruffian but with this polish you must work extra fast because it's drying so quick.
I'll probably add 1 coat of TC later but for now I'm enjoying suede finish and beautiful color combination.
I even managed to capture some picture on sun, because we've such a bad weather these days. :(

Very nice! I like that combination, and WAHP Suede is one of my favorite suedes.
ReplyDeleteNice combo!
ReplyDeleteI really like the suede contrasted with the metallic (and the colors are good, too)! I haven't tried to do a Ruffian yet. Do you do yours free-hand?
ReplyDeleteI love love love this combo. You are an ruffian expert my friend.
ReplyDelete@KarenD: Thanks! WAHP Suede was my first OPI I bought. :D
