Hello!
I hope you are having a lovely start to 2015!
Three Shades Of Purple
Here is my three shades of purple nails for the pick and mix challenge this week.
All The Striping Tape
The three purple polishes I used are
I also used striping tape and Seche Vite topcoat.
Stripy!
I seem to always be surprised that using striping tape always takes so long lol.
Purple Gradient
Hi!
It’s been ages since my last post! Sorry about that!
Before I run out of time here is my Pick and Mix Mani for this week! This weeks prompts are Red, Gold and Chevron.
Taras Talons Zombie Blood and Revlon Golden
For this I used Zombie Blood from this years Halloween range from the lovely Taras Talons, It really is a glorious red jelly! The green holographic glitters are wonderful.
The gold polish is from Revlon and it’s called Golden.
very festive colours
I didn’t want to add to much gold to this mani, Zombie Blood Is so lovely I didn’t want to cover it up!
So much glitter! 😀
I applies three coats of the red polish then when it had dried I used striping tape to create the Chevrons and the triangle shapes and carefully added two coats of golden.
Lovely, lovely striping tape
This really is such a festive look!
Hello! 🙂
Camouflage Nails
The pick and mix prompt I have chosen for today is Camouflage!
I haven’t tried Camo nails before and I actually really like them! It’s a very easy technique so I’m definitely going to be doing this again 🙂
As it’s winter (not that it’s snowing here) I decided on using Arctic Camouflage colours!
Glittery Camo Nails
The polished I used are
I started out with two coats of Out-Grey-Geous, when It was dry I applied Pelican Grey in squiggly lines and splodges with a thin brush, when the pale grey was completely dry I did the same with Galactic Grey, but overlapping the colours slightly. When I had applied the Midnight In NY I thought it wasn’t quite sparkly enough so I added a tiny bit of My Private Rainbow over the black.
It really was, bumpy and uneven by the time I had finished, so I added two layers of topcoat!
Grey, Black and Silver Camouflage Nails

Hello 🙂
Brushstroke Fire Nail Art
The prompts for this weeks pick and mix challenge are Favorite Brand and Brushstroke…
my first problem is I don’t have a favorite brand of polish, out of all the polish brands I have tried I actually have two, Illamasqua and Chanel… I don’t think I could ever choose between them!
Brushstroke Fire Nail Art
for this Brush stroke fire look I used
I used two coats of Paradoxical as the base colour, when it was dry I applied wiggly brush strokes of the other polishes, only a couple of each on each nail, with as little polish on the brush as possible
I found that with the Chanel polishes even with a really tiny amount of polish on the brush, they still applied really nicely, so the final look didn’t end up with the defined brush strokes I was hoping for!
Brushstroke Fire Nail Art
Even tho this didn’t work out quite how I was expecting I still like it! 😀
Hello! 🙂
Pick and Mix Brown and Book
The prompts for this weeks pick and mix challenge mani are Brown And Book. I really had a hard time thinking of something to combine the prompts!
I decided on trying illuminated manuscript (it’s close enough to a book)!
An illuminated manuscript is a parchment or book where the page is decorated with silver, gold and other dyes.
If your interested here’s the wikipedia page on illuminated Manuscripts. 🙂
Moyou Gothic 04
The polishes I used are
I also used Moyou Gothic Plate 04 and a Permanent ink pen.
Pick and Mix Brown and Book
Hey 😀
Tiger Stripe
For this weeks Pick and Mix the prompts are Yellow and Wild Animals!
Blow Illamasqua and My Private Rainbow ILNP
Blow from Illamasqua is a pale yellow cream, It’s been in my untried pile for one reason… It’s yellow! the polish itself is really lovely, it’s opaque in two coats and dried quickly to a really glossy finish, but it’s yellow and I just can’t get excited about it 
My ILNP Order arrived today so I had to have a play! I added a thin coat of My Private Rainbow (l+s) over the Illamasqua polish, Oh it’s so pretty! But my camera once again (gah!) decided that it wasn’t going to show the lovely holographic sparkles!
Wild!
