40 Great Nail Art Ideas - 3 Shades of Red / Orange and Tie Dye

I really wasn't sure how I was going to tackle this one but then wonderful @dreamymm did a stunning rainbow tie dye mani about a month ago, so basically I just did what she did! Thanks Mary!!
I used Moyou London Kaleidoscope 06 and Barry M Cotton with Above the Curve You Call me …Sexy, Donna and Akiko - 1 red and 2 oranges.
Mary has a great tutorial video for this on her You Tube and her IG, but basically it involves sponging the colours, stamping, sponging again, stamping again and a final sponging. Sounds simple if you say it quickly! I got through a lot of top coat as I top coated between each step being so nervous of smudging!
It looked really messy as I went along but I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome.

April Challenges - Red - Above the Curve You Call Me...Sexy

Today's #30daysofcolourchallenge is to swatch a red.
I don't have a lot of reds, and there weren't many on the untried list so this wasn't a difficult choice. As Above the Curve is one of my favourite brands of course that's what I'd chose for a challenge like this.
You Call Me...Sexy is another from the Doctor Who collection and it is a beautiful red. It is actually a lot pinker than I was expecting but as I can't stand orangey reds, I have no complaints. It is a stunning raspberry red shade, with a beautiful holo shimmer. It is reds like this that have the power to convert "I don't do reds" people!
I love this, I often feel rather uncomfortable wearing red but this one was love at first sight, it went on beautifully, great coverage in 2 coats.
