Today is the day that Prince Rogers Nelson was born and so was my love for him and his music.
So of course I did a special mani for my baby.
I used Catrice "Poison me, poison you!", which I acquired recently in an international swap and China Glaze Millennium.
I used two coats of Catrice and two coats of the Millennium. I then topped the Millennium with a coat of Orly Bonder so that I did not get drag when I painted the symbol.
Then topped them all with 1 coat of Poshe Fast drying top coat.
Catrice is a deep yet bright eggplant purple with micro fine blue and red shimmer. It's so nice, and applied nicely and was opaque in 1 coat, but I did two.
I like the fact that its a dark purple, but can never be mistaken for black. Very regal. Very Prince-like...LOL
I Love Prince!
What musical artist is your favorite?

@Audrey- I'm sure you are taller..when he has his heels off.....LMAO! Happy Birthday GIRL!
I love it, I love purple anyway but this one makes me wanne make a trip to belgium to buy some
I love your mani for this! Now if only Konad could come up with a plate that had this symbol... Seriously someone should start making licensed plates... sports teams, movies... music... food (yes, I'd love a burger and fries as a stamp)... okay, I'm getting carried away.
@ABOP- That is a great idea, I would buy a prince symbol, Yankee logo etc. Especially the burgers and fries! YUM!
That's a great mani. That purple is perfect. It suits Prince well.
you really rock this polish :D
They should have called it "Purple Rain"!!! Let's call it that way for the occasion (purple suits you really well by the way) - I dig the Love symbol on your nail! I love it when mani are related to the music we love. <3
@amused- Thank, I really love this color
@jellynat- Yes, lets call it "Purple Rain for the day :)
Omg, I love this mani! The symbol and shade of purple are gorg!
And it's really funny, because I'm wearing Nubar's Purple Rain today. Ahahaa!
@ Chaos- Awesome! Today is definitely a purple day!
Totally didn't know it was Prince's birthday! I love his music, my favourite song is Raspberry Beret <3
@ Rebecca- Nice choice! My favorite changes all the time, I guess my all time favorite is "If I was your girlfriend"
Love that dedication mani. You nailed it with saying the color is regal. I'm waiting for this polish to arrive in a recent international swap I did, can't wait.
@ Lacquerware- You are going to love this color! In the sunlight the red undertones come out..gorgeous!
I have this color and looove it :) You did a great design !
I'm not a huge fan of Prince but I like what he does :) My fave artist is Muse ^^
What a great tribute to Prince! I love his music too. Such a talent! That's such a gorgeous purple (totally in love!) and it's so nice to see a dark purple that doesn't look black. :D
