Pure Ice - Velour Finish Collection - Part 2

Hey guys! I managed to find some more of the Pure Ice "suedes" at my local Walmart. I can't seem to find an exact number of how many polishes are in this collection. Do y'all have any links for me?

The first four polishes of this collection that I picked up are posted HERE.

Blue Midnight - 2 coats

I've added topcoat to the middle nail to show the difference.

Femme Fatale - 2 coats

 

 Topcoat was added to the middle nail.

 Stunning - 2 coats.

 

Topcoat added to the middle nail.

 I was worried that Stunning was going to be too similar to Draped, but here I've done a side by side comparison.

Pure Ice - Royal Flush

This is another new one out from Pure Ice, I found it in the same display as the Velour Finish. This one dries with a regular shiny finish.

 

Royal Flush has a purple base with TONS of gold glass flecks. Pictured is 3 coats.

Pure Ice - Velour Finish Collection - Part 1

Pure Ice managed to come up with a similar matte finish to the OPI "suedes!" I did hear that it's a limited edition only available in Walmart. So scope out your local stores!

Draped - 2 coats

 I applied topcoat to just the middle nail so you can see how it's beautiful either way.

Touch Me Softly - 2 coats

This one is my favorite!

Again, just topcoat to the middle nail to compare. Gorgeous!

Crushed - 2 coats

Topcoat to the middle nail

Over The Top - 2 coats

Topcoat to the middle nail.

Crushed and Over The Top might look similar, but one is a lighter yellow gold. The other is almost copper, or a warm orange gold.

Pure Ice - Not Now

I was in Walmart and heard an employee in the nail polish isle say "This must be new or something, there isn't a slot for it." And then she just flung them on an end cap randomly. My polish senses were tingling, so I immediately ran over and took a glance. Several Pure Ice polishes! I can never pass up $2 a bottle, especially if it looks interesting.

Not Now is a metallic teal/green/blue almost duochrome.

The bottle is gorgeous! The nail is "meh."

Here is 2 coats.

Cult Nails - Manipulative

I picked this up during the $5 sale because I'm a sucker for this shade. And it looked so fantastic with an added shimmer so I was very excited! When it came in however, I was disappointed. The shimmer doesn't show up at all to the naked eye once on the nail. And let's face it. It's pretty much an exact dupe of China Glaze For Audrey.... :(

This is 2 coats

 Can you see any shimmer?

 I didn't think so. :(

Here it is on a swatch-sicle to compare.

Left is CN Manipulative

Middle is ChG For Audrey

Right is WnW I Need A Refreshment

I can barely distinguish a difference.

I still wanted to wear it, so I added one coat of Pure Ice Heartbreaker for the shimmer I was looking for!

I felt Manipulated all right..... :( Duped again.

Muffin Monday!! Pure Ice Rio

Hi again loves!!

  As promised I am back with a super late Muffin Monday post. I think it is so cute and awesome that you guys ask about Muffin when she is out for some time :D. She just celebrated her 6th B-day last Monday and is laying right by my side as I type this. She really gave me a hard time with this pick... As she would not pick one loool! And when she would pick something, I was not fast enough with the camera... So finally I just made a little pile on the floor and sat her in the middle and this is what I got...

Close enough lool...

 Pure Ice Rio

I kept it really simple because it is late and I am tired and feeling lazy.. Plus Rio is really beautiful on its own and I didn't want to "clutter" it. I used one of my new Red Angel plates. I was really curious about the half- moon stamps that are a part of this set. I believe it is plate RA110. It is a really smart concept and I really like the idea of these half moon stamps. The look is really cute and simple to achieve.

This is Rio on its own. I used Three coats. This color applies really well and dries really fast. I am a fan of Pure Ice polishes. They have some really pretty colors and they are super inexpensive. This one is one of my faves. It's an awesome magenta pink jelly base with a soft Purple microshimmer. 

I hope you like this simple but cute look!

Thanks for stopping by!
♥ Cristina
