Inspired by a flag. I really should have thought to do an easier design but I thought with it being St. David's Day on the first I got the inspiration from that.

Swatch: Essence - Magic Wand
This is a light metallic pink magnetic polish

Swatch: W7 - Metallic Saturn
Brush Type: Wide and flat
Polish Finish: Metallic / Shimmer
Opacity: Three coats
Lasting Power: Average
Quite a difficult polish to apply, brush strokes were quite obvious. Possibly a dupe for Chanel Peridot and Model's Own Golden Green. There is a slight colour shift in this, very subtle duochrome. From a deep golden yellow to a green, but this is quite slight.
15ml - £1.95

52 Week Challenge: Week 21 - Green
This challenge really seems to have a lot of different looks, is anyone else doing it?
This week's theme was 'green'
Shatter: Barry M - Black Nail Effects
As you can tell I wasn't a fan of the brightness of the green on its own and I think it looks so much better with a crackle. Especially the black.

Stamping Sunday: Three Colours
I wasn't too sure if we were to stamp with three colours or just use three on the nails. They didn't come out quite how I envisioned, Kath Kidson-esq, but to the eye they are a lot less patchy and the roses shimmer.
Base Polish: Barry M - Berry Ice Cream
Stamping Polishes: Barry M - Racing Green, Miss Sporty - Cherry
Stamping Plate: M65
