<h2>MAC Rain of Flowers Nail Lacquer Swatches, Photos, Reviews</h2>
<p><strong><a href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=Tv0QdA6A1/4&amp;subid=0&amp;offerid=21855.1&amp;type=10&amp;tmpid=8157&amp;RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fshop.nordstrom.com%252Fs%252Fmac-posh-paradise-nail-lacquer%252F3233277%253Forigin%253Dcategory%2526resultback%253D0">MAC Rain of Flowers Nail Lacquer</a></strong> ($15.00 for 0.34 oz.) is described as a &#8220;blackened violet with violet pearlized pigments&#8221; with a frost finish. It is a repromote, but it has been a year since it originally launched (and it was limited edition then, too).</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a rich, deep dark violet purple with flecks of violet and ruby shimmer &#8212; very lovely and has lots of depth. I loved this shade when it first came out, but I had some application issues with the formula from this launch. Before, it was opaque in two coats, and it flowed well, but this time I had rather streaky and slightly patchy results in two coats so I had to do a third to give it a better end result. It seems like it would be rather opaque in two coats if it weren&#8217;t for the rather uneven appearance overall. The formula is on the thinner side but doesn&#8217;t seem sheer. I generally have good luck with MAC polishes (I haven&#8217;t had a bad experience with wear that I can remember) &#8211; they wear a solid week on me with minor tip wear but no chipping.</p>
<p>I wish it had more dupes, but <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/china-glaze-vintage-vixen-collection-review-photos-swatches-part-2#image5">China Glaze First Class Ticket</a> was the best bet, but it&#8217;s not as dark.</p>
