Rimmel Metal Rush nail polish in Gold Save The Queen review!

Late last year Rimmel launched a new collection of 'fierce metallic two tone nail colours.' There are four colours in the 'Metal Rush' collection; Royale Blue, Gold Save The Queen, Purple Reign and Pearly Queen.
 
Rimmel's Metal Rush nail polish in shade 70 Gold Save The Queen. 
I purchased shade 70 Gold Save The Queen as I'm a sucker for golden metallic nail polishes and Rimmel's 'Metal Rush' collection didn't disappoint. Gold Save The Queen is a bronzed gold with brown undertones. The 'nail colour changes when you move,' so the colour then shifts to a dirty gold colour and even a greenish shade!

 
Gold Save The Queen duochrome effect isn't as effective as the other shades in the 'Metal Rush' collection but it's gorgeous as the polish shimmers in copper, gold, yellow, green and brown shades with fine specks of glitter. I love Gold Save The Queen and I think this polish would make the perfect Autumn shade because of the warm golden, bronze shades mixed into it.
 
 
The formula itself is incredible! I found that two coats gave my nails opaque coverage with maximum effect of the polish. The high-shine matte finish gives my nails a shiny and glossy appearance so I don't even need to apply top coat. The polish also dries very quickly which is also great. It is a long lasting polish as it was more than a few days before I noticed any chipping at all.
 
 
Like other Rimmel nail polishes, the bottle is quite small and contains 8ml of product. The brush is flat and wide but makes sure to cover the whole nail with one simple sweep.

VERDICT - The 'nail colour that changes when you move' is great value at only £3.99! I'm a sucker for metallic polish and Rimmel's 'Metal Rush' range is a winner in my eyes. Gold Save The Queen is a top quality nail polish that is long lasting with a high glossy matte finish. The brush makes an amazing applicator as it covers the whole nail in one simple sweep. Two applications gave my nails opaque coverage with maximum effect of the polish.
 
The two tone effect of the polish is amazing! The duochrome effect of shade Gold Save The Queen is subtle compared to the other colour in the range but I love it! The bronzed polish shifts to a dirty gold that shimmers in copper, gold, yellow, green and brown shades with specks of glitter to keep me satisfied.
 
A must-have for anyone that loves metallic nails with an edge!
