Adorned Nails: Skin Food Nail Vita VI407 Puppy Purple



Don't you just love the name? I think it's cute, however inaccurate it is. It's terribly inaccurate, actually. Firstly, I couldn't find the puppy, and secondly, where in the world is the purple?! Perhaps I had chosen a bottle with a wrong label (but I doubt it). Mine says VI407. I checked the Skin Food website and it shows that VI407 has the name Puppy Purple.

In real life, it looks burgundy. A beeeautiful burgundy, so dense with microglitters you'd wonder how they managed to squeeze them all in. Just like the previous Skin Food nail polish I showed a few months ago, VI408 Violet Stone, the formula for Puppy Purple was thick, but I managed to apply the polish without resorting to using a thinner. This polish has an awful smell too, just like the other one. I had to keep my nose far away from the brush. However, I do find this one relatively hardier than Violet Stone. It's the end of Day 1 and I see no signs of chipping yet, not that this says anything that significant.

Burgundy and microglitters make a perfect combination.......for me, at least. My heart feels so warm and fuzzy when I look at this polish. And look at it a lot I do.

I quite enjoyed the pictures in this post, lovin' the angles you took! And that colour looks SO pretty. I swear I've seen a lot of polishes, but you cease to amaze me by showing more prettiful colours that are unique and distinct on their own.

Thanks so much, alvira. Does it look more purple to you? I'm finding it so hard to see the purple. A burgundy-purple it must be then! [picks up phone to make appointment with optician] ;D

It's the kinda color that makes me wanna sit on the couch under a blanket with a nice warm cup of hot chocolate, if that makes sense :P Warm and fuzzy indeed!
