Borghese Pomino Plum Nail Lacquer ($8.00) is a frostym, shimmery royal purple with purple-fuchsia shimmer. It’s a nice option for transitioning into fall as the temperatures get cooler! Borghese polish goes on easily with just two coats of polish. This was the first Borghese polish I’ve tried, but I wasn’t disappointed!

Oooh, I love it! I have a weakness for anything purple, and sparkly. =D
I love purples too, especially for nails 🙂
I like it too! Nail polish with sparkles lasts longer on me for some reason.
I think maybe the sparkles adhere better to the nailbed?
such a great color! i love it 🙂
Glad you like, Michelle!
I’ve only tried one shade, Puccini Pomegranate and it was such a disappointment. It was streaky in application and chipped VERY quickly! My OPI and even Sally Hansen polishes are far above and beyond in quality.
Really? That sucks! I didn’t find I had those issues with this one at all!
