Sue Moxley Famous - Purple Dazzle

To the person who decided they should stop selling this at Superdrug and move to Argos - Boooooooooooooooo!

I'm gutted that they're stopping this because I wont be slogging over to Argos when I want a little treat for myself, although I think the half pricey-ness is awesome (although be careful, every single item has gone through at full price every time I've been).

I love, love, love glitter polishes, but I hate, hate, hate taking it off, even with the foil trick. :( But I've tried 5 of these glittery polishes now and each one has been a dream to remove, I'd wear glitter every day if it was as good as this!

Can you see the slight holo?
I wore Purple Dream while I was away this weekend and it held up ok. It's a two-tone polish with flecks of glitter in, it's predominately purple but has flashes of pink and gold. Unfortunatly, unless you're in exactly the right light then you don't see any two tone when it's on your nails as well as you do in the bottle. As with the last polish it goes on nicely, it seems rather thin and watery on the first coat but opaque on the second coat.

I got about 2 days wear out of it, although I did go swimming on the second day and it pretty much all flaked off while I was in the pool. 


With the flash to show the standard colour

Famous By Sue Moxley

Why can I not find hardley any swatches of these polishes online? They're brilliant!

My lovely, well trained other half clearly has good taste because he actually picked this one up thinking I'd like the colour and I do!

Sue Moxley is currently on sale at Superdrug, all items are half price so when I was in having my weekly mooch, I saw this range (I always ignored it before because I always assumed it was out of my price range) and honed in on the half price label. From what I've read, the range is being removed from a lot of Superdrugs and being sold through Argos which is a shame because its really good from what I've seen. This polish was about £2.49-ish.

I got 3 polishes, which I'll come to in other posts. This one is Shade 14; how dull is it when they don't name them? I'll hereby name this Bora Bora! because it reminds me of the shades of bluey green sea they have there.

It goes on an absolute dream, and opaque in only 1 coat, dries to a high shine and removes nicely as well. The depth of colour is great, and so vibrant. I love it! I think I'll be using this to do some Konad as well because of how pigmented it is, I think it will be perfect.


I smudged this one. :(
