NOTD: Milani Purple Gleam

Posted by Halifax @ Sparkled Beauty

It is a gloomy Sunday here, I needed some bold colour on the blog. Yesterday was a lot of running around for me, but I did get a good haul. That post will come later, as today is a lazy day :)

Milani nail polish is on BOGO at Lawtons this week, so I thought I should get one of the later colours up, in case you need some persuasion, lol.

This is Milani Purple Gleam, part of the One Coat Glitter group that Lawtons was so awesome to have in. The moment I saw the Milani Spring catalogue, I was so anxious waiting for the nail polish to come to Lawtons.

And they did not disappoint, at least Purple Gleam when I tried it.

It looks a bit deeper, almost matte in natural light (first pic) and more shiny under flash (the other 2 pics). You might opt for an extra layer of top coat to smooth the surface out, but I, as a habit, only did one coat.

No bald spots, no application issue. I did two coats here, again as a habit. If you have a good amount of polish on the brush, you can get away with one coat - as the collection name suggested.

I had a fun time wearing Purple Gleam, haven't been disappointed with any purple I wear lately. Lucky huh?

Only had it on for the weekend, so I can't say it last longer than 2 days, but that's standard with me anyway.

Hope everyone has a good weekend. Tomorrow is the bf's birthday and I had no way to get his birthday card to him due to the Canada Post lockout. Can't celebrate it with him either, but I hope he'd have a good day nonetheless.

A quick reminder that the Summer Beauty Tour giveaway will come to an end Tuesday night. Summer shopping is in order, why don't we try and win some cash prizes on the blog?
