OPI Purple with a Purpose with FLAKIES!

Oh my! I just love how this turned out and couldn't wait to share it. Purple with a Purpose was one of my very first polishes and my first post even, but today I've added flakies from Maybelline Colorama Pink Pinata and I LOVE how it turned out. Pink and purple - what more could a girl want!? lol

Maybelline flakies!

I'd just like to start off by saying how impressed I am with the pigmentation in this polish. For such a tiny bottle of colour it certainly packs enormous presence! This gorgeous blue based creme red is almost opaque in one coat and super quick drying - in fact almost too quick. These pictures show Candy Apply from Maybelline Mini Colorama and topped with Pink Pinata also from the Mini Colorama range. I'm very impressed and looking forward to trying the other colours.

PS just thought I'd add that colour is how we spell color in New Zealand :) for those of you who thought my spell check is on the blink lol

Cult Nails - Enigmatic

As much as it pained me to remove Awakening - I'm delighted to replace it with Enigmatic. Enigmatic was somewhat of a surprise. It's gorgeous in the bottle but the first coat is very sheer and brownish. It isn't until the second coat that the purple gorgeousness (is that a word?) pops out. Enigmatic is a deep shimmery brown based purple with a lovely silver micro glitter that looks amazing in the sun.

Maybelline Colorama Ruby Rays!!!

Oh my - this is just as awesome as I thought it would be!! Wow! I can't stop looking at my nails.

This is two coats of gorgeous Ruby Rays flakies over two coats of China Glaze Paint the Town Red. I'll let the photos do the talking . . .

Vibrant Fuschia

Love this bold fuchsia colour with a vibrant purple base and it dries super fast. This is my favourite konad stamp – so delicate!
