Rose Mountbatten

I was worried a taupe rose would pull too gray on me, but the brown heather undertones keep it warm and flattering. Two LED curing cycles and it's dry — no smudging while I dig for my keys. Lasted a full week before the first chip.

The taupe rose color is really pretty and looks more expensive than it costs, though it does need three thin coats for full coverage. Lasted about eight days before the first chip, which is decent for a semi-permanent at home.

Lasted about five days before the first chips showed up, which is decent but not what I'd hoped from a semi-permanent. The taupe rose shade itself is lovely and the brown heather undertone keeps it from looking flat. Curing under the LED lamp took a bit longer than the instructions suggested.
