Product Reviews for Nail Polish - Rose Among Thorns 14ml (80842)

Lovely nail polish. Fantastic colour and lasts well.

Lovely colour, glides on smoothly and is very popular in the salon

Beautiful pinky red neon, opaque in 2 coats. Dries matt but a glossy topcoat can be used. Neons can be streaky, using a matt base coat helps with this.

This is a neon pink - lovely summer colour. I had China Glaze Rose Among Thorns put on my nails in my nail shop and liked it so much wanted it for myself, however this colour is different to what I have painted on my nails this is a definite pink where the colour I have is more of a pinky orange - China Glaze have obviously changed the colour, so if you are ordering a new one as you already know this colour this is totally different.

Rose Among Thorns is a megawatt bright cerise pink, and is one of those cerise shades where the red undertones hide in certain lighting, and is much more vivid in others. Like the rest of China Glaze's [pre-Electric Night collection] neon polishes it dries matte and it does look a bit rough when dry, but one layer of topcoat smooths it all out.Out of all China Glaze's huge neon polish range Rose Among Thorns stands out to me as it is not streaky when you skip the white base, which is a problem I keep encountering with their older neon polishes. However this is still a neon that really does benefit from being layered over white if you plan on wearing it alone; while a white base doesn't effect the brightness of the shade, the formula is very sheer. I used three coats over a clear base in the photos, and you can still see vnl.The polish is smooth and bubble free to apply, and dries extremely quickly; within one minute. Admittedly it's not as long lasting as China Glaze's crème or jelly based polishes, but then no other brand has matte polishes that holds up as well as their other finishes do either.
