Sally Hansen Salon - unknown - deep purple/burgundy

Application: Smooth
Coats: 2
Source: Dollar Tree, and unfortunately, the bottle was missing the sticker, so I have no idea what it's called.
Comments: Another beautiful vampy color with a purple/burgundy base. When I was younger, I never would have thought to wear colors like this, but I think my skin actually likes them. Of course, not hubby-approved, lol! I really like that Sally Hansen builds shine into so many of their polishes. I may invest in some drying drops as I feel like I'm wasting topcoat when I use it on colors like this.

I love these square bottles and rubber-grip caps. Why, oh why did they change the design?

Here I'm trying to show the color better.



Then, of course, I decided to have some fun with other topcoats.
From L to R: The SH for this post
Orly - Prisma Gloss Gold
Borghese - Cristallo Shimmer
Cover Girl - City Lights
Sally Hansen - Hidden Treasure

What's that on the pinky you ask? I added white to the original color for some (ugly) nail art just to see the contrast before I put on the topcoats. Topcoats in same order as above
And then in reverse order

  2. Kimberly, I'm kinda hoping someone will recognize it and tell me what it's called. I don't want to give it an identity crisis by naming it and later finding out its real name.
