Nails: Monkey See, Monkey Do - Paisley

First MSMD post in some time now, but when I saw this paisley design pined over on Pintrest I had to attempt it myself. Design credit and inspiration came from Haute Lacquer.

Base Polish: Avon - Lime Splatter

 

Swatch: Barry M - Prickly Pear Gelly Hi-Shine

This is one of the Gelly polishes brought out Autumn 2012, I have swatched Blackberry and Blue Plum also. Really like this dusky lilac shade, and while it is marketed as a gelly it isn't actually a gel polish.

Opacity: Allegedly one coat but I used two
Colour: Pastel Lilac
Finish: Cremé
How Much? 10ml - rrp £3.99
