Purple Paradise
Ahhhh, summer. It’s just around the corner! Here in chilly NY, we got a taste of summer with an unusual 80 degree day. Perfect inspiration for some hot summery colors!
I used Wet N Wild clear, Grape pigment from TKB Trading, and Revlon Colorstay in Forever Scarlett.
I filled an empty bottle with 1/3 clear, and just a little less 2/3 Forever Scarlet, to leave room for the pigment. I added in 1 tablespoon of Grape pigment, and shook the mixture well.
Voila! Purple Paradise!I love how shiny this is! And it looks like it’s glowing!
Thanks for looking…I have more summery colors on the way!

I love it! Such a great purple! I used to mix polishes a lot many years ago…and now, after reading your blogs…I am itching to do it again!
I’m from NY too! Such a shame about our weather, isn’t it? We didn’t even get a spring. =(

I hactually have a polish like this and it’s absolutely loveable! I really love how the red polish gives it this shimmer. Gorgeous!

That is simply amazing .. I’ve never really ever seen purple polish with red shimmer. I’m not a fan of purple – but this, I’ll die for!
