Erica's Nails & More Nail Art Challenge! Day 6 Gradient Nails!!

Whoa!!! Day 6 already?? Time flies when you're having fun :)

Today is gradient nails. If you follow my blog you know I struggle with gradients. I think if you haven't got the blending down, it's best to pick similar colours in tone/intensity. That way its easier to blend the line of colour and make them mesh better.

I chose Nails Inc Baker Street and Joe Fresh Fluo Blue.

Then I topped it with my untried, Enchanted Polish Daydream Surprise. I'm not sure if I like the long bar glitter in this one but I love the shimmer (which is super awesome but didn't really show up in my pics). I also like the way it looks over the gradient!

& There you have it! Day 6!

Erica's Nails & More February Nail Art Challenge! Day 1: GALAXY NAILS

Hello!

Fun news! I'm participating in the February Nail Art Challenge put on by the fabulous Erica from Erica's Nails & More!



Today is the first day and the challenge is Galaxy Nails! I know people say there is no "right or wrong" way to do Galaxy Nails. But mine always end up looking smudgy and very UN-space-like. Anyway here is what I came up with!

Don't laugh!! It really was my best efforts! I tried these a couple of times and this was definitely the best outcome.

I used GOSH Nero as my base. Nero is a fabulous one coat black. I sponged with OPI Alpine Snow, HITS HK Mint, Joe Fresh Fluo Blue, OPI Koala Berry, & a-England Avalon. I topped the whole thing with OPI Last Friday Night for some sparkle and smoothed it all one with g&g HK Girl topcoat.

Keeping with the theme of untrieds.. I used OPI Last Friday Night for the first time. Why did I wait so long to use it??? Its PERFECT for layering! 

I hope you liked my efforts and be sure to check out the other awesome nail art from the challenge!!
