The Purples

Angelface

Source
Angelface is described as "a royal purple linear holo".
Shown is two coats of Angelface with top coat.
Angelface was inspired by and named for the angel face flower.
Angelface is the perfect grape Kool-Aid holo. It wasn't as sheer as I thought it was going to be so two coats is perfect. This baby is FULL to the brim with holo particles. You'll have holo in your face all day. You could probably see that ish in the dark. It's gorgeous. There is no denying that.

Bellflower

Bellflower is described as "a muted purple with purple sparks".
Shown is three coats of Bellflower with top coat.
Bellflower was inspired by and named for the bellflower flower.
Bellflower just might be the absolute perfect shade of purple for Spring. It's soft and delicate, but leaves an impression. My first coat was slightly streaky, but it smooths out in no time. A must have!

Geranium

Geranium is described as "a deep purple with navy blue holo hex".
Shown is two coats of Geranium with top coat.
Geranium was inspired by and named for the geranium flower.
Geranium was a surprising favorite of mine. The purple with specks of blue glitter is such a perfect combination. These two very rich colors look lovely together. Application was smooth. I was expecting the base to be a bit thin and the glitter to be kind of textured when dried, but it wasn't an issue at all.

Nelle (H)

Nelle (H) is described as "a purple to blue thermal with linear holo".
Shown is three coats of Nelle (H) with top coat.
Nelle (H) is another that wasn't inspired by a flower. So I chose another beautiful lady flower with that name...Nelle Porter. All of you Ally McBeal fans will know her. She blossomed like a lovely flower on the show so it's only fitting.
Nelle (H) is beautiful. The version without holo is a more creme base and the colors are a bit darker. This version is more of a jelly with a hint of creme in it, and the colors are lighter. Blue or purple...hot or cold...you won't be able to wipe the silly smile this polish gives you off your face.

Pansey

Pansey is described as "a lighter purple with gold shift".
Shown is three coats of Pansey with top coat.
Pansey was inspired by and named for the pansy flower.
Pansey was one I was actually dreading to swatch. That almost pearlescent gold shift is a hit or miss with me. With this shade of purple, it really is stunning. It's very...ethereal and whimsical. Lovely on it's own or as a topper.

Petunia

Petunia is described as "a grey-ish lavender with a pearl finish".
Shown is two coats of Petunia with top coat.
Petunia was inspired by and named for the petunia flower.
Petunia's pearl finish is borderline metallic. Because of the shade of lavender it comes off more pearl. Would be incredible matted!

Rose

Rose is described as "a burgundy wine linear holo".
Shown is two coats of Rose with top coat.
Rose was inspired by and named after the rose flower. It was also created by Roselynn from Manicured and Marvelous.
Rose is the "odd man out" here. It's not a purple-purple, but this shade of wine is beautiful. Roselynn and Jenn worked well on this together. I loved this in direct light. As the holo sparkled through the burgundy base, it seemed to have flashes of pink spark through.
