Passion Flower

Today’s manicure is one I did a while back.  I used one coat of Milani’s Purple Gleam.  Purple Gleam is a very sparkly dark purple polish.  Like the bottle says, this is a one coat glitter polish.  

I stamped the flower design using Bundle Monster plate BM-224 and Pure Ice’s Silver Mercedes.  

I topped it off with N.Y.C.’s Grand Central Station.  

I was expecting this look to be somewhat similar to my Prom Night nails.  The blue polish base I used for my Prom Night nails, Pure Ice Strapless, had a smooth finish to it.  Purple Gleam was a bit gritty.  I should have added a top coat before stamping.  This would have helped the image transfer better onto my nails.  I still like the way these nails came out.  I like the purple paired with the silver.
