Duri - Purple Rain

Hi everyone!!  Happy Friday!

I have another polish that Amanda (Amandalandish) sent me.  Can you guys tell I swap alot?  Anyhoo, this was my first time trying a Duri polish.  Amanda sent me this one because she knew I hadn't tried the brand before.

Purple Rain is a deep purple jelly.  It's pretty dark, so it looks almost black at times.  There is also microshimmer, which is visible IRL, unfortunately not in my pics though.  The formula is very good.  It was almost opaque in one coat.  I think if I used a thicker coat, as opposed to the thin coats I typically use, it wouldn't have needed a second one.

In the pictures below, I used two coats of Purple Rain with no base or top coat:

The purple is a bit more visible in the sunlight pictures.  I was very happy with this polish and look forward to trying more from this brand.

What do you guys think of Purple Rain?  Have you tried any Duri polishes?

    I've never tried this brand, and I've only vaguely heard of it. I like this color though!
