Magenta glass-flecked jelly by LA Colors
This is a pretty color, even if a little boring. It’s great for summertime, but so is every other bright pink out there. It has the same finish as the purple color from this set, but the purple one gets the edge due to its blue duochrome. The jelly base of this magenta polish is also more translucent, which makes VPL a bigger problem. This is not a terrible polish, but while you could do a lot worse, you could also certainly do better.
Purple by LA Colors
This plum glass-flecked jelly dazzles because the glass flecks have a blue duochrome, making it another great color from the LA Colors 4-pack. It might be a little intense for many situations, but it’d be great for a night on the town, or a rock concert. It applies a little streakily, but that’s no biggie given the low price.
Mieko by Zoya
I enjoy some notoriety among my fellow En Couleur bloggers and nail polish aficionados for my passion for pink, so I couldn’t let this weekend leading up to Valentine’s Day go by without posting an appropriately themed color. Mieko is a hot pink jelly with golden flecks of glitter, which creates a great lit-from-within look. Indeed, one of my friends said it made my nails look radiant. It’s a great choice for those who dislike more ethereal variants of the color family, so if cotton candy or bubblegum type shades aren’t your thing, yet you still want a pink, Mieko just might fit the bill.
Purple Pizzazz by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear
As with many jellies, Purple Pizzazz is one of those polishes which looks better in the bottle, being a hair too translucent on the nail. To be fair, VPL was more prominent in this picture than a casual glance would reveal. Iridescent glitter in grape jelly is a great concept, but one which turned out somewhat meh on the nail. Bottom line: this isn’t bad, but there are plenty of more awesome purples out there.
