Happy Sunday! It's definitely a happy one for me. :-) I'm so excited that football season is kicking off. Football is one of my favorite things about fall and I've been eagerly looking forward to this since the last season ended in February.
Over the next few days, I've got a selection of colors from the China Glaze Autumn Nights Collection to share with you. Let's kick off today with Goldie But Goodie, a rich antique-looking gold in a foil finish.
This is a really interesting gold. It's not as yellow as most golds are. Instead it has a bronze/brownish tint to it that mellows it out and gives it that antique look. It makes this more wearable than your standard gold, while still being very pretty and festive. The formula is great on this. It goes on smoothly, with the foil particles spreading out evenly without any clumping or bald spots. I just needed two coats for total coverage.
You can find Goldie But Goldie at your local nail salons and at beauty stores such as Ulta and Sally Beauty for a retail price of $7 for 0.5 fl oz.

I am really liking this gold. I agree with your decription of it looking 'antique'. It sounds like a Christmas must-have :P x
ReplyDeleteYay I'm so glad you like it! It would be beautiful around the holidays. :)
DeleteSo far this is the one polish from the collection that's really caught my eye--it looks so rich and textured!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like this one, Elizabeth! It's such a great, rich shade! :)
DeleteI think I will be skipping this one but your swatch is perfect as always.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful -- a little more serious than the average gold polish! Lovely swatches :)
ReplyDeleteYes, it's more serious and a bit classier than a standard gold, I would say. :)
DeleteWhat an interesting colour! Antique gold, just like the frame of a very old mirror or painting. Nice!
ReplyDeleteYes exactly! I'm glad you like it. :)
DeleteIf I didn't know any better I'd say antique gold is actually a thing this season. ;) I prefer bright and showy or champagne, myself, but this is quite pretty and certainly has its place. It looks like it'd make an awesome Saran Wrap mani. Lovely concept and gorgeous swatches, Yun :) :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Liesl! Yes, it would make a great saran wrap! I'm not sure it's my favorite shade of gold, but it's certainly interesting and more unique of the golds, and it's lovely for fall. :)
DeleteHi Yun, I am so exited to see your selection of the new ChG Collection and you certainly start with a bang!!! Goldies but Goodie looks gorgeous on you and I dare say that I consider foil finish a big trend for the oncoming season <3
ReplyDeleteHi Christine! Thanks so much, I'm glad you're liking this one. :) I'm a huge fan of foil myself, so it's fun to see it out and about this season. :)
DeletePretty color!
ReplyDeleteokay wow. I love football. Esp world cup and euro. We are having football tournament but sadly my county lost on semis yesterday \:
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous shade. I like how it gives brownish shade (:
My team lost the home opener yesterday, so I was a bit sad too. But there's always next week (which they better win lol). :D I'm so glad you like this! :)
DeleteI like the antique feel of this polish. It looks classy and expensive.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I thought so too! It's a lovely shade of gold. :)
DeleteThis was a nice surprise! I usually don't like gold polishes but this looks really nice.
ReplyDeleteAh yay, I'm so glad you like this gold! :D
DeleteThe antique look of this looks very upscale. Nice swatches, Yun! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Melissa, I'm glad you think so! :D
DeleteI like it! Much more fall-toned than some golds, I think. Plus it looks a little more unique :)
ReplyDeleteThe antique feel of this gold is so lovely for fall, I thought so too! I'm glad you like it! :)
DeleteVery pretty green that shimmer makes it even more special :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm glad you like it! :)
DeleteFoooooootball!!!! LOL I have to admit it's one of the only sports I like to watch! Which teams yours? And super gorgeous color lady! :)
ReplyDeleteSteelers lol... they lost the home opener though. Which team is yours? Thanks lady, I'm glad you like this! :D
DeleteIt is a very pretty polish, and it looks good on you!
