Inside, it looks like a plain ol' frosty metallic silver. It's brushstroke-y and looks pretty blah.
Outdoors, you can see a subtle teal and pink duochrome, like a diluted, frostier version of OPI Not Like The Movies. Granted, it's more noticeable than the hint my camera picked up, but it's still not super strong.
The formula on this polish is okay. It's on the brushstroke-y side, as I mentioned, and covers in three coats. It's not too runny or too thick, but you do have to be mindful of where you place your brush. The brushstrokes are less noticeable in outdoor lighting, but are easily visible indoors.
Overall, I'm pretty "meh" on Dancing Queen. It looks really cool in the bottle, but falls flat on the nail. The teal duochrome is pretty but I wish it was more prominent. It doesn't show up at all indoors and outdoors, it's more subtle than your average duochrome polish. So most of the time, it just looks like a frosty silver, which I can't honestly say I'm a fan of.

Not sure about this. I like it, but I don't think I'd get it myself.
ReplyDeleteYeah it's not really my taste. Someone who doesn't mind frost would probably love this though! To each their own, I suppose.
DeleteI agree with Amanda, I'm not too wild about this one - frosty silvers just aren't my cup of tea. If only the teal duochrome showed up on the nail more!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I can't deal with frosty polishes at all. A stronger duochrome would totally minimize the brushstroke-y look but oh well. :-/
DeleteIt's a pity.
ReplyDeleteYes, this one was a letdown!
DeleteThis is gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Meredith!
DeleteSuch a shame when the polish doesn't live up to what can be viewed inside the bottle. I'm not even sure how it's possible, but still, it's fairly sad. If it's any consolation, I think it looks really nice against your skin tone! (PS: New follower! :) I love your blog layout and background.)
