31 Day Challenge-Day 10: Gradient

Don't get me wrong I love a good gradient just as much as the next girl but I wasn't feeling particularly inspired by any color combo so I did something different. I decided to re-do a glitter gradient I'd tried a while back. What do you think?

This glittery gradient consisted of four different glitters: Wet n Wild Kaleidoscope, OPI Crown me Already, China Glaze Fairy Dust, and Orly Shinning Star. For the base I used one very thin coat of OPI Bubble Bath, and finally to help build up the continuity Essie Good as Gold for the tips. All in all I do think it's a very pretty combination, but maybe it's a tad too much for little old me.

Here's the sched: 

Nerd loven'

Hey ladies, hope everyone is having a splendid week thus far. I like some of you find myself back in school so I'd like to share with you what I've been wearing the last two days. This oldy but goody might register to a few of you as Gorramit from the Firefly collection created by the late great Nerdlacquer. This is one of those special colors that speaks for itself. In a bold mustard yellow, Gorramit is jam packed with both fine and chunky glitter in orange and red. I've noticed in the polish community ladies seem a little scared of yellow but how can you not immediately fall in love with this shade? I personally think it's a warm enough color to complement any range of skin tones. 

I've been dying to stamp over this bad boy but do to lack of time I decided to complement this vibrant color with the equally fantastic Deutsch You Want Me Baby? from OPI's Germany collection followed by a thin coat of Orly's Shining Star. 

Fresh New Start

Hi everyone, I'm pretty excited to be writing my very first post on something that I absolutely adore...NAIL POLISH! I've been following several different bloggers for a while now, for both inspiration and just to reveal in their general greatness. Now thanks to some summer down time and a gentle push from my boyfriend here I am. For my first couple of post I think I'll show my renditions of the some other very talented girls nail art. So let's get down to business. First on the list is missgoob who you can find on Instagram @missgoob and at her etsy shop. 

Ignore my packs of glitter in the background :)  

I fell in love with the design, and it didn't hurt that this mani was pretty easy to do. I used Orly Sterling Silver Rose, Chine Glaze Liquid Leather, an unknown silver I ordered off of delias, and Seche Vite to top it all off.
