I have a few polishes to share with you from a brand new polish line called Pure Nail Lacquer. If you follow my Instagram account, you've probably seen a few pictures of them already. I had the pleasure of meeting Danielle, Pure Nail Lacquer's creator, at a trade show event in Brooklyn a few weeks ago and was impressed by the colors she created. Below are the polishes I purchased.
Innocence
A deep gray creme, Innocence was slightly patchy on the first coat, but is fully opaque and even on the second coat. Here I used two coats with no top coat.
Artificial Light
Artificial Light (Light Box)
Loyal
Loyal is an eggplant purple creme with a good formula. It applies really well and is fully opaque in two coats. Here I used two coats with no top coat.
Artificial Light
Natural Light
Lucid
Lucid is a lovely blue jelly with a great formula. It applies really well and though it doesn't get completely opaque (it is a jelly after all), it's very pigmented.
Artificial Light
Sunlight
Lucid makes an awesome jelly sandwich. Check out the pic I posted on IG here.Honesty
This neon pink totally freaked my camera out. It was hard to capture the true color on camera, it's even brighter in real life, but these are the pictures that came closest. The first coat was slightly streaky, but it leveled out nicely with the second coat. Here I used two coats with no base or top coat.
Artificial Light

Passion
Deep red and holo glitters in a clear base, Passion is a really unique polish. It takes three coats for full opacity and it does dry to a gritty finish, so top coat is definitely required! Here I used three coats on its own. Top coat was used in the two pictures below.
Artificial Light
Natural Light
Below is one coat of Passion over Loyal. I used Seche Vite Top Coat.
Artificial Light
I absolutely love Passion over Loyal. It makes a really pretty combo!!I personally love all of these polishes, but if I had to choose, my two favorites of this bunch would be Innocence and Lucid. What are your favorites?
PURE Nail Polish may be purchased online at www.purebeautyshoppe.com. The cremes/jellies are $5 and the glitters are $7. Great price right?! There are over 17 colors in the collection, so you should definitely check them out.
