P2 Passion & No7 Betty Blues Damask

P2 Passion is such a gorgeous colour, and I think I've recently added a Miss Sporty colour to my stash that's pretty much a dead on dupe. But that's for another post ^_^ In person the stamping looked more blue, and in the last photo you can sort of see that the shimmer comes through too. I think after leopard print, damask is my favourite go-to design. I wish there were some more image plates with damask on so I could change it up a bit. But maybe there is, who knows!

Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: P2 - Passion
Stamp Colour: No7 - Betty Blues

Top Coat: China Glaze No Chip Top Coat
 


I know in reality I should be lusting after Autumn colours, but I just love bright so much!

Deborah Sunset Cocktail. Orange & Black Candy Striped Nails

So to start with I'm 1, yes 1! Follower away from my first giveaway, I still haven't looked into creating forms, or anything at all so hopefully it won't be too far from hitting 50 that I figure it all out. This being said there's not that many prizes ;( as I'm so skint, but I hope you'll like them all anyways.

Anyhoooo on to the nails ^_^ this is my first mani that remotely reflects Halloween, and I'm so disappointed that I haven't had the time to do all the Halloween looks that i've wanted to. Hopefully I'll still fit some in, cause I love halloween so bad. So so bad.
Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: Deborah - Sunset Cocktail
Stamp Colour: BYS - Black Satin
Plate: BM20
Top Coat: China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat

Two coats of Deborah Sunset Cocktail, as you can see there is still visible nail line :( However the colour is so gorgeous, so bright, so shiny, and the glass flecks are just stunning. I have to say, glass fleck is one of my favourite finishes. So yes, hopefully some Halloween stuff to come, but no promises!

Hope everyone's having a good weekend ^_^

Pink & Geen Flowers, Original Bundle Monster

This is such an odd combination in person it looked so crazy that it was amazing. Bright to the point they looked like one of those optical illusions. However in pictures it's not so amazing and more odd xD

Galaxy/Nebula Nails

I've been wanting to do these for some time now but I never got around to it, but with the 31 day challenge there's been a lot more Galaxy nails recently and I fell in love with the look all over again.

I love the way these turned out (although I do wish I'd left a bit more black visible, and chilled out with the dots a bit xD) But for my first try they're not half bad, and so sparkly ^_^


Here's What I Used (L-R)
Nail Rx - Stuck On You Base Coat, Essence - Grand Plié In Black, Nubar - 2010, China Glaze - Millennium, Sally Hansen - White On, Matalan G - Sangria, Manhattan - Lemonade, Deborah - Turquoise Fever,
Rimmel - Disco Ball, Maybelline Colorama - Ice Princess, China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat
.
And Ice princess being stunning :]

Beauty UK & Nailene Star Stickers

Just a quickie. I may be a little busy this month with Halloween preparations, but I'm still gonna try and do my nails the usual amount despite already ruining one mani earlier while sanding ¬_¬

Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: Beauty UK - Purple
Stars: Nailene Stickers
Top Coat: China Glaze No Chip Top Coat
The polish is probably 2 years old, so i'm not sure if thy stock it anymore. It's quite sheer, but it builds nicely. In person I wouldn't agree with "Purple" and more of a dark berry red.
