Ok so when I was organizing my swatches I kinda realized I have a lot of purple and purple adjacent polishes. I had to divide them up so here’s my more pink/red leaning purples. (Disclaimer, there are a bunch of mooncat polishes in my collection but I don’t generally recommend shopping from that brand anymore)
Wheel of Pink/Red-ish Purple
1. Ooohhh (cracked polish)
2. Lost Polaroids (mooncat)
3. Wild beauty (glam polish)
4. Freshly bitten (mooncat)
5. We’re all mad here (great lakes lacquer)
6. Velvet seat cushion (cracked polish)
7. Vera (zoya)
8. Paisley all the way (Essie)
9. Ondine (zoya)
10. Payton (zoya)
11. Lael (zoya)
12. Raven (mooncat)
13. Night crawler (mooncat)
14. Freudian slip (mooncat)
15. Purple party monster (cracked polish)
16. Lovebomb (mooncat)
17. Cool night (ethereal lacquer)
18. Sin eater (mooncat)
19. Glampire (sassy sauce polish)
20. 2025 (polished for days)
If I may go a bit left field and suggest one that’s… not exactly purple, is a topper, and is mainstream 😅 Essie Ethereal Escape looks amazing over (probably any?) purple! This is 2 coats of it over a really ancient Rimmel violet one that I don’t love. It looks very blue at this angle/lighting but it’s shifty so was still very violet in others, and sooo shiny too!

Lurid – Little Witches
Lurid – Candlelit
Cracked – Lahar
Cracked – O-type Star
Cirque – Earthen
ILNP – Harper

I love purples too! Two of my absolute favorites are Ghoul’s Garden & No Reservations both by Cracked. They magnetize beautifully! 💜

I’m not into purples so much, but I do love blurples! KBShimmer “Tripped Up” & Emily de Molly “Code Mistake” are my fave blurples in my collection! “Tropical Heatwave” by Sassy Sauce has a pink base, but the insanely glowy blue flakies gives an overall blurple look on the nails. It’s incredibly gorgeous & fun & not one I expected to love as much as I do.
