Monday, February 8th, 2010 Nails of the Day: Arissa in Rockin Amethyst
Happy Monday! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Today I'm bringing you what I'd like to call an "unofficial" bargain of the day. The color itself is insane - purple, jelly, flecks! But tracking this gem down may be the gray area, which is why it didn't make the official cut.
Arissa in Rockin' Amethyst is a juicy purple jelly laced with blue shimmer/glitter throughout. I think it's safe to call this glitter/shimmer combo a glass fleck goodness. And the application - perfect in three coats.
Where can I find this? You can start looking at Family Dollar, General Dollar, Deals, etc... Any Dollar Store that usually carries higher priced items. The cost is $2.00/each (.5 oz).
What do you think of Rockin' Amethyst? Have you ever tried Arissa Nail Polishes?

*sigh* I have been searching for polishes/brands that are a cool find like this for a while now. All the dollar type stores around here seem to carry zero polish. It is a little heartbreaking. :(

Hi Crystal Polish,
Hang in there! My Dollar Store was the exact same way too, then one day poof nail polish appeared! :)

That's one solidly gorgeous purple. My town doesn't allow dollar stores...we're just too darned fancy I guess. Maybe this weekend I'll take the 50 minute drive south to the town of the dollar store and everything else that is wonderfully affordable. :) I want to find this one!

This is an awesome nail color! I'll have to search my "dollar tree" store, or my "99 cent" store this weekend!

This is proof that you can never have too many purples in a nail-polish collection! Hehe...it's a stunner for sure! And your nails are so cute.

I think that this line is available on Cherry Culture.

Hi Lynn,
You are correct! The line is available on Cherry Culture or Arissa Studios, sadly Rockin' Amethyst is a discontinued color.

I'm not gonna lie, right now i have over 15 different purples in my collection... i have a problem.
This kind of reminds me of the Hot Topic purple! (which is in my top 3 favorite purples)
