Milani Blue Lightening

I am sucker for shimmers and a sucker for blurple polishes. A SUCKER, I SAY.


Milani Blue Lightening with Konad Stamping using China Glaze Passion

I have at least three of these blurple shimmers (OPI DS Magic, Color Club Total Mystery, etc.) and this one is the clear winner when it comes to actually semi-translating the purple that is evident in the bottle (I'm looking at YOU, DS Magic). Also, it had terrific coverage in two coats!

As for the Konad, I'm giving the China Glaze Romantique a whirl as stamping polishes. Passion is gold in the bottle, but definitely reads more as silver on the nail which wasn't what I was hoping for. Has anyone out there in blogland had good luck with these polishes for stamping?

Happy polishing!

  1. I just bought Passion the other day and I looove it for stamping. Gives a more antique look, maybe, than say SH Celeb City or another true silver. But it's definitely not as goldish as I had hoped. Still looking for a good gold for stamping. Beautiful mani!!
