I finally, finally felt like my nails were looking nice enough to try painting them. Turns out, they're not quite there yet, but close enough that I felt okay taking swatch pictures!
I got this back during Zoya's Red promotion for Valentine's Day (it wasn't the red I chose––that's Reva, which I'll be posting once I wear it!) because I felt like I didn't have enough pink polish (that's not glitter or holo or cream) and Reece looked pink but still interesting. And lo and behold, pink and interesting it is!
Reece is a medium rose with duochrome shimmer (nearly frost) that shifts from apple green to gold to orange to pink. I could not get it to show up on camera, but I assure you it is there! Pretty subtle, but adds some interest. I did 3 coats, and though I could have gotten away with 2 thicker coats (I know this since I accidentally made my coats too thick on a couple nails, in part because the polish is a bit runny), 3 thin coats prevents bubbling and offers complete opacity. It has a very slight tendency to show brushstrokes due to the shimmer, but as long as you don't zigzag the brush all over the place it's really not noticeable.
So, yeah. It's a pretty pink with a kick, and I can see myself rocking this a lot through spring and summer!
