Sally Hansen Insta-dri Quick Brick Swatch

Hey all!

Little post today, just a couple of pictures of Sally Hansen Insta-dri Quick brick. I think this is actually the only red I've ever fully swooned over. It's so juicy, and so vibrant and shimmery, and is great for stamping over paler colours. To see where I've used it click here :]

 Above is two coats, no top coat, and below is with a top coat, so the juiciness is really exposed, and the colour is probably more accurate below too.

That's all for today! =]

Queens Diamond Jubilee Nails

Just a quickie post today to show you what I've been wearing since Saturday. Originally I wasn't gonna do anything special on my nails, but after being a zombie all day in front of the racing I felt like doing my nails.

Base Coat: Nail RX - Stuck On You/
Base Colours: Barry M - Gold Foil
Rimmel - Tip Whitener
Barry M - Bright Red
George - Boom
I also used a red nail art pen, and blue and white acrylic paints
The glitter's just loose fine glitter
Top coat: China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat

I did try and take some pics of my right hand, but they all came out blurry, and I didn't wait long enough for the first top coat to dry before bed, and the flag on my right ring finger kind of melted and partly slipped under the free edge in my sleep lol. I kinda wish I'd done red and blue with gold glitter fade. For the glitter I thickly sponged on top coat and sprinkled glitter on.

I'm currently trying to nurse some sort of illness (Sunday as I write this) I think It's gonna turn out to be a horrible head cold, I'm feeling better than earlier though thanks to a two hour nap haha. I hope everyone has had a good weekend.

Spring Challenge - Day 9 - Kites

Today's Spring Challenge is Kites. I'm a little bit disappointed by how these turned out, but since the sun has been playing hide and seek for the last week or so I can't be bothered to re-do them :P

Dont' forget to check out Esme's Blog to see what she came up with today :]

Base Coat: CND - Stcikey
Base Colour: George - Cloudless Sky
Stamping Colour: NYC - Nail Glossies - 215
Image Plate: Konad M79
Kite: Barry M - Bright Red, Lemon Ice Cream, Red Glitter
Tree: Manhattan - Green Piece
Top Coat: Models Own - 3 In 1

 

Then I decided to add more NYC - 215 to the clouds with a dotting tool, as the stamp didn't show up too well.

 I figure I should've made the kite smaller too.

Next up is rain! :]
