Tri-Polish Challenge: Blue, Yellow and Red #3

This challenge has been going on for well over a year now, but the idea is there are three colours pre-picked and you find those three colours in your stash and use them in some kind of nail art. For the blue I used Max Factor's Odyssey Blue, the yellow Collection 2000's Sorbet and the red is ELF's Red Velvet.

Nails: #fightforlightandlive - Depression Awareness

Nailsandpolkadots on Instagram - "The passing of Robin Williams has again shown that there is more to a person than meets the eye. Having suffered from depression myself me and a few friends have decided to collaborate to raise awareness for the invisible illness. Join us this Sunday by posting a green manicure using the hashtag #fightforlightandlive. Feel free to repost this picture to get as many people involved as possible".


These are my green nails for this cause, raising awareness and showing solidarity.
