2 scheduled challenges and a little extra one thrown in at the last minute.
I started with Smitten Angstrom, the most stunning teal glitter. Full coverage, very sparkly, beautiful colour - just perfect.
I added stripes using Lealac LLC A and 2True Pro Metallica Aglaia for #clairestelle8june's challenge. This was a great combination, two quite similar colours but very different textures, fascinating to look at although the camera hasn't quite picked that up - it looks like the 2True is just floating over the Smitten.
Then I set about the hawaiian shirt mani for #hawaiianshirtmanifriday. I added some foliage with Pueen SE01B and Hit the Bottle Absinthe Minded, and then the flowers with Pueen SE03B and Hit the Bottle Magenta at Your Own Risk.
This had been my plan for #30daysofcolourchallenge which was Glitter/Tropical but having done the hawaiian shirt mani, I thought I'd better try to add something for the 30day challenge.
One step too far I think! I tried to reverse stamp some more Pueen SE04B flowers with Virtuous Polish Naomi and filled in using the gorgeous glitter, Dark Metal Lacquer Bright Eyes but it didn't quite go to plan. It does look better in the pictures than on my nails but not a huge success. As it was so warm today the Virtuous Polish kept drying too quickly to pick up, so I didn't have a clear outline to fill with the glitter - the end result was not as crisp and tidy as I would like, but it is glittery!

Oh wow, I just love this shade of nailpolish. The deep dark blue did it for me, and when you had it striped with a lighter shade. DD: It was GORGEOUS

DeleteThis mani is gorgeous at every stage, and the end result is simply stunning. Next time when doing reverse stamping after filling in the image go over the out lines with top coat. That will ensure a crisp transfer.
ReplyDeletethanks Myishia, I'll give that a try xx
