REVLON: Plum Night

Hello everyone!  I hope you are all able to keep cool.  It's been so hot here on the east coast lately.
Anyway, here is a gorgeous deep purple that almost looks black.  It actually does look black in my pictures.  I took a picture with just the bottle to try and get a more accurate color.  But IRL it looks like a deep, grape juice purple.  It's a creme and goes on very nicely but definitely needs 2 coats.  Please excuse the bubbles, I have the A/C on but still needed my Hawaiian Breeze fan on......and you know what happens when you apply nail polish with a fan on.  This bottle shot is truer to the actual color on the nail.

Thanks for looking and I hope you all have a great weekend!

Paradoxal & Perplex Comparison Swatches

 Revlon has released a new nail lacquer called Perplex being advertised as the new "IT" shade.  I had seen a few swatches of it online, and it looked like an exact dupe of Paradoxal.  So I decided to try it IRL to see if I could see a difference.  I am not going to say ahead of time which is which on the nails until you see the pics first.

I personally cannot tell a difference.  Can you?  Looks like we have a much more affordable winner here from Revlon as far as the color and hidden shimmer matching Chanel.  The consistency is pretty much the same as well.  Perplex was almost a one coater though.  But all swatches are 2 coats for comparison.  Thumb, middle and pinkie fingers are Paradoxal.  Index and ring fingers are Perplex. 

Left is Perplex, Right is Paradoxal.
