GOT Nail Challenge: Silver Accent

Silver accent was the challenge for today, I used Essie's Beyond Cozy which I got for Christmas 2012 and a accent of A England's Ophelia from April 2012.

Tri-Colour Nail Challenge: Nude, Coral and Turquoise #1

This is the first of the Tri-Polish Challenge for this month. The colours are Nude, Coral and Turquoise. If you want to join or want to know more about this then you can do here.

I chose to use: Leighton Denny - Opaque Elegance, Leighton Denny - Just Perfect and ELF - Teal Blue.

ELF - Teal Blue

I also used Models Own Nail Art Pen in Black as well as acrylic black paint.

Nails: Pokemon - Poliwag, Diglett, Jigglypuff, Pokeball

I used A England's Encore Margot as the base and everything else is freehanded acrylic paints.

This is without the sticker and without topcoat, sometimes photographing polish / nail art is difficult with a very shiny topcoat.

And finally a close up of Diglett, Poliwag and Jigglypuff.

Hope they semi-resemble the actual characters!

Stamping Plate: MoYou - 105

Recently MoYou have really started to re-brand, with a new website, new Facebook page and a new twitter, also an instagram. I have used the brand before and have purchased plates from them before, you can see those reviews here, here and here. This plate was sent for reviewing purposes, which won't effect my opinion.

As you can see the plates come in a cellophane package and have a blue plastic layer to protect the plate in transit. The plates are fully backed as well with the website address, this is useful as it also means no sharp edges.

The plastic was well stuck down but once it was removed you can see the plate was fine to use. Below you can see some of the images stamped on to paper, I didn't have many issues in getting the to transfer. The images were cut deep enough to work but not too deep to cause problems either.

Now on to some nail art I did using the MoYou 105 stamping plate:

Fishtail Heart Nails

Bow Dotticure Nails

Black and Red

MoYou 105 retails at £4.99
