Sally Hansen Chrome - Royal Purple

I realize it's been awhile since I've posted a Sally Hansen Chrome polish, and I still have a lot of them to share with you, so here's Royal Purple! This is another Sally Hansen Chrome that I definitely recall owning (and loving) back in the day. 


This was two coats, and while the chrome finish tends to show up every little imperfection in the nail, overall it wasn't too challenging of an application. 


And here's a quick picture of something that had been occupying my time a couple weeks ago when I was wearing this polish (it's been languishing in the unposted file for awhile now...)


Anyone else playing Diablo 3? Since I took this picture I've started playing Nightmare mode, but I'm kind of running out of steam with Act II. Not sure how I feel about playing through all the same material, just on a harder difficulty. It's a bit tedious.

What do you think of Sally Hansen Royal Purple and/or Diablo 3?

And in case you missed my announcement the other day, I'm now officially taking orders for Pirate Polish. See this post for details, if you're interested!

    1. Thanks, Ashley! I have a weakness for both purples and for chrome polishes, so this was a safe bet for me!

    1. I can feel the chrome revival beginning, Sandi! And I can't wait. With all these "Mirror Metallic" finish polishes coming out, soon it's going to be a full blown chrome trend!

    2. You're very thoughtful, Maria! Thank you. :)

      And as regards the Purple Chrome- is it the chrome part you're unsure about, or the purple?

    1. Hehe, I find that even if someone doesn't love chrome, they almost always love purple. ;) I have yet to meet anyone who doesn't love purple polish!

  7. Not a fan of chrome polishes either, but wow purple chrome is awesome!

    Diablo looks fun, but haven't got around to playing it. I use to be really into WOW, but it was so time consuming! Had to stop playing lol =P

    1. I used to play WoW, too- then I /played to see how much time I'd spent playing my main character... it pretty much made me quit! Ah well. It was fun for awhile, but it doesn't much appeal to me anymore.

  8. I love how this chrome polish resembles the "foil nails look" that was popular for a short period in 2009. Something about it is also quite reminiscent of the nineties.

    1. Definitely a 90's vibe for sure- which sounds about right considering that's when I first purchased this polish!
