Tri-Colour Nail Challenge: Pink, Orange and Turquoise #3

This is the second month of a new nail challenge, you are set three colours and you select three polishes to represent each colour. Four days, four different manicures using said polishes. I ended up doing this for the third challenge, supposed to be liquorice all sorts:

These are the three polishes which are to be used for these challenges. Expect to see three more for this month. ELF's Gum Pink, La Femme's Ultra Gold and Collection 2000's Electric Dreams.

31 Day Challenge: New Technique

This is a new technique to me, it was done using a fan brush. A little bit messy but it seemed to blend the three colours quite well. I am sure with practice this could look so much better.

Base Polish: Sally Hansen - Dorien Grey
Rainbow Polishes: Eyeko - Saucy Polish, ELF - Fire Coral, Collection 2000 - Sherbet Lemon

Nail Polish: Battle of the Pastels


Collection 2000 - French Tip White, W7 - Polar White, Barry M - Matte White, Sally Hansen - Lavender Cloud, Revlon - Cloud, W7 - Sheer Lemon, Angels Delight, Sally Hansen - First Kiss, ELF - Innocent, Eyeko - Rain, Eyeko - Vintage, ELF - Mint, ELF - Lilac, Sally Hansen - Delphinium 

So first round we have to get 14 polishes down to just four. Me being me I don't particularly have a preference for light polishes! I adore Sally Hansen's Lavender Cloud, it is opaque in two coats and is perfect for those winter nail designs.


However I seem over the past year to have used an awful lot of ELF's Innocent and that is why it is making it through to the next round.


The winner of the battle is Barry M's Matte White, and while I have used a lot of Innocent Matte White wins (just) because it is good for stamping as well as a base for nail designs!

Nail Polish: Battle of the Polishes - Neons

Not being too much of a fan of neons this round was quick and the winner easily decided on.

ELF - Yellow, Collection 2000 - Sherbert Lemon, Color Club - Almost Famous, Miss Sporty - 306, ELF -  Mango Madness, ELF - Fire Coral, Color Club - Wham Pow, Color Club - Poptastic, Color Club - Warhol, Color Club - Mrs Robinson, Color Club -  Twiggie, W7 - Fluroescent Green

I had to choose three and so easily ended up with the following:


Not being a fan of the neon, I didn't have much of an opinion. In the end Wham Pow won because Mrs Robinson needs multiple coats to reach the right opacity  Wham Pow is neon, can be a one coater and is incredible vibrant.
