52 Week Challenge: Inspired by a Book

This week's prompt is 'Inspired by a Book' today's nails are inspired by Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne. The bubbles on my thumb are from the heatwave we had in the UK, although I think it works with nautical themed nails.

Nail Art: Diabetes Awareness - Patchwork Blues

November is Diabetes Awareness Month and so every Friday to raise awareness I am doing blue nails.

Type one diabetes can be diagnosed at any age, are you aware of the four T's?

The four T's stand for Toilet, Thirsty, Tired and Thinner.

Nail Polish Battle 2020: Blue

Barry M - Berry Sorbet // Essie - Mint Candy Apple // Barry M - Sour Candy // Barry M - Ocean Blue // Rimmel - Danny Boy Blue // A England - Skinhead // Tonic - Dragons at Dusk // Danglefoot - The First Avenger // Nail Artisan - Witching Hour

Danny Boy Blue is a true colbalt blue, quite vivid similar to the original Sally Hansen Pacific Blue or Nails Inc Baker Street. No mistaking this for black or even a white, certainly a blue.

Dragons at Dusk is a beautiful duochrome polish, changing from blue to purple, there is also some teal in there too which is nice.

Which means the winner is The First Avenger which is a beautiful metallic primarily blue but a duochrome changing to purple on different angles.
