I did take pictures of this polish in the shade, but they didn't turn out accurate at all, so I deleted them. I'm also disappointed with how little the holo showed in my pictures. While it's not that obvious in real life, especially not indoors, it is more evident than it is in the photos. Definitely click to enlarge with these; it helps. I used three coats of Purple Diamond, though the third really wasn't necessary. I'm not quite sure why I added it...maybe I was bored? Also, because I know top coat can sometimes dull holographic polishes, I only added top coat (Rush) on my thumb. I really can't tell any difference, though, which is nice, because this polish is not fast-drying, and a quick-dry top coat really helps with that. I'm thinking I want to add some sort of holiday nail art to this, but I'm not quite sure what to do with a purple base...anyway, thanks for reading!
Hmm, that's weird, I have the same polish but in the other bottle (longer) and the colour is different. Mine is a deeper purple and full halo. Yours is still very pretty though :)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!
ReplyDeleteDanielle- Weird. I knew there were different bottle shapes (the other one in my pack is the taller one), but I didn't know they had colors with the same name that were different colors...I wish I had the more holo one. :/ Oh well.
ReplyDeleteCel- Thanks!
ooo. this is gorgeous! is this one of the polishes you got for an awesome deal? like a few dollars?
ReplyDeleteu think sometimes we are so used to 3 coats..we just do 3 anyways. i do that a lot even when i dont need 3 coats.
shortwidenails- Thanks! Yep, I got this in a two-pack that cost a dollar...so it was basically 50 cents. I was super excited. :) And yeah, I used to always do 3 coats. Recently I've gained a *little* more self-restraint/impatience, but I still default to 3 coats.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my all time favorites. I'm still annoyed that my DT never got (or I missed) the Prisms, but I really have no grounds to complain since I've been so lucky when it comes to other polishes. :)
ReplyDeleteKarenD- I really like it! I hope you can still get this one day...my DT didn't have nail polish at all for the longest time, but the last time I went in, they had not only the Prisms, but a ton of L.A. Colors and other stuff. So keep looking! :)
ReplyDeleteomg how much is it and do they still have it in stores
ReplyDeleteI found it at Dollar Tree for $1 - they don't make them any more, but you can find them on eBay and sometimes in dollar stores.
