Nail Polish: Battle of the Alternative Glitters

This category is mainly Indie Polishes with a couple of other glitters thrown in for good measure.
 Coverband - Sticks and Stones, W7 - Salt n' Pepper, W7 - Mosaic, A England - Lady of the Lake, A England - Tristam, A England - St George, A England - Bridal Veil, Hare - Midsummer's Midnight, Kleancolor - Blue Satin, Orly - Sunglasses at Night

Getting these polishes down to only three was quite difficult. In the end I settled on Coverbands Sticks and Stones as it is different and works over any base colour. I adore Midsummer's Midnight but only really works over a darker base.

 

The winner of this battle is A England's Lady of the Lake, because well it is purple and looks stunning in all of its holographic glory twinkling in the sunlight.


31 Day Challenge: Pink

Day four of the 31 day challenge from Crumpet's Nail Tarts, and the challenge was do something pink. While I may not be a fan as such of pink I do have way to many in my collection, and used some striping tape.

Nail Polish: Battle of the Beiges

This is a battle of the beige polishes;

 
Leighton Denny - Leading Lady, ELF - Innocent, ELF - N*de, ELF - Pink, Leighton Denny - Take a Bow, ELF - Blush, ELF - Copper, ELF - Smokey Brown, George - Molton Metal, Ebalay - Rose Gold, ELF - Chocolate

Not my favourite battle but I do use a lot of them for nail art bases.


The winner is ELF's Smokey Brown, I have used up two of these and have this one plus a back up. It just works really well with my skin tone as a base for something more snazzy. Something I cannot be without.


31 Day Challenge: Gold


Base Polish:
Ebalay - 004 Rose Gold
Stamping Polish: W7 - Rose Gold
Stamping Plate: M60 (Fauxnad)
