Playing with silky & matte finishes in stripes and dots

 
Glossy - with top coat
The base color is Essence 03 Peach Punk from the Rebels coll. it dries with a semi matte latex finish. I wanted to keep the theme in silky semi matte finish so with a striper I freehanded stripes and dotted dots with China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise (turquoise neon) and Stone Cold (dark grey matte), and the light green-yellow is also from the Rebels coll, it’s called 04 Rebelizer. After a while I wanted to see it glossy, so I top coated to see the difference. Which version do you prefer?
Grundfarven er Essence 03 Peach Punk fra Rebels kollektionen, den tørrer med en såkaldt latex finish, for mig er det en silke/halvmat. Jeg ønskede at blive i det semimatte og matte tema, så jeg malede striber med en striper pensel og prikker med et dotting tool med China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise (turkis neon) and Stone Cold (mørk grå mat), og den lyse gulgrønne er også fra Rebels kollektionen, den hedder 04 Rebelizer. Efter et stykke tid blev jeg nysgerrig efter at se, hvordan den ville se ud med en toplak, hvilken version foretrækker du?
