Spotty nails!

So as it's now uni holiday's I have a lot more time on my hands.

accordingly I have a lot of nail polish designs to try out. 

These are some I saw online - the ones I saw looked way better as the dots were all in line, and the same shape/size. 

(but hey, I'll keep working on it)

white base: Revlon White on White

Black Base: Australis Blackmail

Black spots: Art Deco black

White spots: Revlon White on White (with a cotton bud stick)

Matt top coat (On Thumb and Middle finger): Elf

Glossy Top Coat (Index, Ring and Pinky fingers): Sally Hansen

Two tone nails!

So I did mention earlier my new matt top-coat... I gave it another try.

(not so keen on it this time) 

I also bought four new nail polishes recently.

(this is two of them) 

in some funky random shapes! 

I do really like the colours together - just not so sure about the Matt(ness)

Green: Elf bought from Bling

Purple: Australis Peek-a-boo

Matte manicure...

I just found a matte topcoat, which I had been looking for for a while.

I decided to have a bit of fun comparing the matt finish to a shiny one, so created this manicure with a dark shimmery purple.

I painted my nails completely purple

then applied matte top-coat

then painted the tips of my nails again with the purple 

Overall I quite like the look! 

Purple: Elf Purchased from Bling

Matte Top-Coat: Elf

Green and grassy manicure...

I decided to paint my nails with the epic green colour I bought recently! 

I then got a bit bored later on and was playing around with some black stripes...

(I was originally just going to do boring parallel stripes on an angle all over the nail) 

but then I decided the brush stroke actually looks really cool and kind of grass like...

so then I decided to add a few more green tones.

and created this.

I put my matt finish top coat on the ring finger

(I don't think it looks as cool as glossy finish)

so I painted a glossy top coat over it.

and here is my final result! 

Sweet coloured sorbet nails...

I just found some photos of a cute manicure I did a while ago.

I was trying out all my pale colours together, I think they look quite sweet.

(excuse the very short nails- I was in a biting stage) 

Thumb: Revlon White on White

Index: Australis Sweetpea

Middle: OPI Lucky Lucky Lavender 

Ring: Australis Rub-a-dub-dub

Pinky: Revlon Peach Petal

Multi-coloured ombré nails

These are the nails I painted prior to flying to Sydney. Sorry that I'm posting them late!!! I ended up painting each nail the bright colour and sponging black on top. On the first hand I did (my left hand) i sponged it on (which took a LONG time to get it dark enough) in the end I pare-painted the coloured tips and smudged this, it was much easier!!! I then tried it for the other hand - which wasn't as easy as I was expecting... I ended up paint the bottom half black (with the polish brush) then once that was relatively dry I did a stripe of black near a stripe of colour and used the sponge to blend these... It ended up with a smoother smudge resutl- not just a spotty (obviously black sponged on after) Enjoy the picture of my final result.
