Some old pictures of Barry M’s Vivid Purple.

Flushed to the extreme
Even though I enjoy wearing my cremes alone I usually end up creating some kind of nail art on top. This time there’s no nail art but a wonderful addition to NYX’s Extreme Purple is Cult Nails’ Flushed (the amount of pictures is directly proportional…).
Flushed is a lovely purple base with color shifting shimmer that has an incredible glow…
NYX’s Extreme Purple
NYX’s Extreme Purple is a heavily pigmented, medium purple creme. The formula is good; application is easy, it’s fully opaque at one generous coat and dries fast.
Jumbo Bellini
Rimmel London’s purple glassfleck Baby Bellini works good as the base for some stamping with Cheeky’s Jumbo Plate and Barry M’s Gold Foil. I just love purple and gold together in nail art 🙂
Rimmel London’s Baby Bellini
Rimmel London has released a small line of Cocktail Colour glassfleck shimmery polishes. I ordered two from Asos and one of them broke in transit and now they’re all gone… Too bad as I like this one a lot and would probably have enjoyed the others as much.
This purple one is called Baby Bellini and is just incredibly awesome. I sure have a weakness for purple shimmers and glassflecks 🙂 application was flawless although three coats were needed for opacity.
Slimy drippings
This isn’t very pretty but I love the whimsical look of it 🙂 I dotted some kind of slimy drippings with Gina Tricot’s bright green creme Another Bite on top of Depend’s purple shimmer 313.
Depend’s 313
There are few swedish polishes I really feel like I need to own based on the color, look and finish. Depend’s 313 is a deep purple with green shimmer and it’s one of a few exceptions.
I love the formula; application was flawless, it was opaque at two coats and dried reasonably fast.
Groovy roses
I was in the mood for some color matching stamping and decided to use Nubar’s Romance as the base. On top I stamped roses with Bundlemonster’s plate BM-323 and the deep purple shimmer Let’s Groove from China Glaze.
Nubar’s Romance
This is Nubar’s Romance from the collection Simplicity Meets Elegance; the only nail polish collection I own in its entirety. Even though I’m always happy with Nubar I was quite surprised I liked them all when I recieved the set of eight.
Application was quite lovely; the crelly like formula made it buttery and easy to paint, it was opaque at three normal coats and dried fast.
Orly’s Fowl Play
Orly’s Fowl Play is beautiful in many ways but leaves me quite uninterested in the end. I have no idea why as the idea is quite lovely; a deep purple jelly base full of flakies and micro glitter and tiny blue glitter. It applies very well, is opaque at two generous coats and dries reasonably fast.
