Pure Ice: Purple Reign

Hello strangers! I have to apologize for my disappearing act. I've had a lot going on these past few weeks...some good, a lot bad. Such is life.

Today I have Pure Ice Purple Reign. I had never been able to find this at any of the Walmarts near me so I had given up on getting it. As luck would have it, on our way back from Panama City, we made a pit stop in Dothan, Alabama and their Super Walmart had it! I got this, Pure Ice Heartbreaker, and a coral one I can't remember the name of right now.

Purple Reign is a smoky purple with gold shimmer. It's like OPI Catherine the Grape's more outgoing sister. I'll do a comparison one day. This is three coats, no topcoat:





Ooh, shimmer!


The formula was good and I probably could have done two coats, but as always, my application sucked so I had some patchiness. The third coat evened it all out. I love the shimmer in this and it is absolutely visible on the nail.

Varnish Vixen, if you're reading, I still owe you some mail and I'm so sorry it has taken me so long but I will make it up to you!

Happy painting!
