I’ve got a fun purple polish on today! It’s Milani Nail Lacquer in Purple Streak from their Texture collection. As far as textures go… I think this polish is a great value! It’s more affordable than some others (nails inc and zoya pixie dust- I’m talking to you!) and it should be easy to find if you have a Walgreens near you. Purple Streak only needed two coats to be opaque and it dried really fast! Needless to say, I’m happy with this one! This purple has a cool (almost eery) look to it. I’ll have to remember to pull this one out at Halloween and pair it with a funky green or something!
This is only the second textured polish that I’ve tried (I previously swatched some Godiva Pixie Dust here). And I still have to try out my new bottle of L.A. Girl Sandblast- it looks similar to Milani in that it doesn’t have glitter. So which textured polishes have you tried?
Oh how cool is that?! Milani has a textured collection as well?! Nice 🙂 Love this color.
I haven’t tried too many of their polishes. I usually buy their super sparkly and glittery eyeshadows 🙂
I don’t have access to Milani in stores here, but its def good to see that so many drugstore brands are keeping up with the trend. 😀
Needless to say too: I love this!!!
Even when it’s needless… we’ll say it anyway. Cuz we love nail polish! hehehe
I have been wanting to try textured polishes…and Milani is inexpensive! I’m going to go look for this.
I won this one in a giveaway! How lucky was that? But I’m pretty sure a lot of drug stores might have these! Lemme know if you find some 🙂
I seldom wear dark purples but this one is lovely! Too bad Singapore doesn’t have Milani, or at least I don’t think so! Love good drugstore brand polishes. (:
What brands are easy to find in Singapore?
Drugstore brands would be Essence, some LA Girl and LA Splash, Sally Hansen and in some areas you can find Catrice(but haven’t seen any) + Silky Girl polishes!
Then the standards in polish stores would be CG and OPI.
Not sure if I missed out anything! ^^
I have a really hard time finding Essence near me. I haven’t tried any essence or catrice. Such a small world, yet too big for all the polishes, apparently!
Haha I agree! I only discovered Essence recently, and purchased one of their polishes. Their brushes are really huge, I flooded my cuticles on first swatch!
The CVS next door to me has Milani, but they haven’t restocked their display in literally forever. I know because I surreptitiously take a pic with my phone every week or so! I l-o-v-e Milani nail polish; they have a semi-holo style that might be my favorite finish ever.
You have a CVS next door? DANGEROUS!$!
Ummm…yes. The staff there all KNOW me, but I’m really good at using the Coupon Center to my advantage! They always have sales on soda; the bottom of the pantry is what I like to call the “strategic soda reserves.” LOL!
I haven’t tried any texture polishes. I prefer the sparkly textured polishes, because I don’t understand the non-sparkly ones. It’s just not for me. Anyways doubt I’ll even get into the texture trend as opi and zoya is very expensive this side… So unless essence or sinful colors or la colors brings us something, I won’t be trying this.
I like the colour of this one though. You could even do some blood splatter on it for an extra gory halloween effect! That could be interesting.
I swear to God that looks like those slushy thingies that I drink in 7-eleven or something. lol. Yum!
ohmygosh- you are so right. they look like grape slushies!! lol
OMG! I love, love, love purple in all guises, but textured purple fingernails? SO COOL!
Thanks! Im glad i was able to capture just how rad this purple is!
