Halloween Blood And Flies
For this bloody look I started with base coat and a nude base colour I used nude from Barry M.
Starting with the darkest red which is Perfect Plum From Sally Hansen new lengths range, I dabbed it in patches over my nails, I used the same technique with Ravishing Dahling from China Glaze, so I had patches of dark red.
While it was still wet I added Double Decker Red from Rimmel London over the unpainted parts of the nail, then some patches of Elle’s Spell from Barielle Shades for some sparkle! Then While it was still wet I mixed it about a little with a dotting tool to give it a slightly marbled look.
This took ages to dry even with fast dry top coat! but when it eventually was I used the Halloween stamping plate from Messy Mansion for the flies with Konad SP in Black. I finished it with one last coat of fast dry top coat from Color Club.

I had to cut my nails! *CRIES* I had a washing up accident and broke two of them D: Now that I have short nails my fingers feel all weird… I don’t think I like it…
Pink Glittery Zebra Nails
For this I used Heli-yum from China Glaze as the base colour, It is a lovely rich pink cream, I used two coats, I followed that with Make A Spectacle also from China glaze, which is a pretty and very sparkly iridescent hex and micro glitter in a clear base.
The zebra stamp is from Moyou it’s Pro Collection Plate 4. I used konad special polish in black for the stamping.
The topcoat I used was 60 second fast dry topcoat from color club, I have decided to finish the bottle before I open my next bottle of Seche Vite!

Here is a purple dotted gradient rather than a gradient with dots…
Purple dotted gradient
I started with a couple of coats of Secret agent from Color Club, then starting with the darkest colour I added the dots, more at the base of my nail.
The black is Vamp Polish from Eyeko, the other purples are Baptiste and poke both from Illamasqua.
I finished it off with a coat of fast dry topcoat from color club, the color club top coat dried quickly but it’s not as shiny as Seche Vite and I have noticed that the polish chips quite a bit faster and tends to drag the polish a bit more

Here is another first for me! Galaxy Nails! 😀
Galaxy Nails
I used loads of nail polishes for this, I started with a base of Vamp Polish From Eyeko, then using a tiny bit of sponge I added a little bit of Blackened Bleu from Barielle shades and Alias from color club. Blackened Bleu is a lovely black jelly with dark blue and turquoise glitter, Alias is a dark blue jelly with purple duo-chrome glitter, it’s really pretty!
At this point it looked like a patchy gradient, after it had dried I added Gorgeous from sinfulcolors this polish is a bright turquoise metallic with a light gold sheen and secret agent from color club which is a light purple metallic polish. I put a drop of each polish next to each other onto an old plate and picked up both colours with my trusty bit of makeup sponge, and added a tiny bit to each nail.
when it was all dry I used Night Moves from Barielle shades for the stars, and the fine holo glitter is Sparkling silver from no.7
I finished it with a coat of fast dry topcoat from color club.

My new Dotting tools turned up in the post today, along with my new set of Nail art Brushes! Yay!
So here is a Dotty Gradient!
Dotty Gradient
For this I used Stella from China Glaze, This polish is a dark metallic purple red, and Black from Barry m.
I started with one coat of Stella, then used a sponge to create the gradient, this took two coats, then I used one of the medium sized dotting tools to add the dots, I finished it off with some fast drying topcoat from Color club.

This is my first attempt at braided nails! And I’m really pleased with the result! 😀
Braided nails!
For this I used Vamp Polish From Eyeko, Steel of the Night from Color Club and Night Moves from Barielle.
I did have a few issues with the brushes being different sizes, so next time I try this I’ll stick with one brand of polish!
