This was a challenge I was looking forward to doing, I'd been meaning to try doing Galaxy nails for quite some time. I think this worked although not sure if the star shaped glitter was overkill or not.

52 Week Challenge: Week 29 - Fashion

Week 29 is here and the theme was to do nails inspired by fashion. I don't know the first thing about what is in fashion currently and what isn't so first thing I did was some research in to that! One of the reoccurring things which came up was tribal patterns;

Swatch: Claire's Iridescent

I couldn't find anywhere which gave this polish a name or a number which is quite annoying. 
So I have named it Iridescent!


This is two coats of iridescent on top of one coat of ELF's Black polish. As you would expect this polish is a pain to photograph but to the eye it is really beautiful. The reason I chose a slightly blurry photo is so you can see the effect it gives, looks a little like the night sky here.
