52 Week Challenge - Music / Not Worn Enough

Music and not worn enough are the themes for this week's challenge post.

I used a color combo I've worn before and absolutely adored (but haven't worn since): China Glaze Below Deck and Rendezvous With You. The stamping plate I used for the musical notes is DRK-B. I fixed the stamping with one coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top and added one coat of H&M Matte topcoat.

Pahlish Over The Sea (November Duo)

Today I want to show you another one of Pahlish's montly duos: Over the Sea (from last november).

The base color is alled Soft And Sweet and is a pastel lavender creme with charcoal flakie shimmer. I used two coats for opacity.





The name of the glitter topper is Lights In The Clouds. In a clear base it has copper and blue hex glitter plus blue squares. I used one coat over my ring and middle finger and my thumb and finished this mani with one coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top.

 Pahlish polishes are available on Bigcartel, at Overall Beauty and at Llarowe. I bought mine at the Bigcartel shop. The monthly duos are only available for one month, and every month there's a new one.

A Box, Indied - Serendipity

Last but not least, the fifth polish of the march "A Box, Indied": Girly Bits Serendipity.

 

Serendipity is a pastel pink holo with small hex glitters in two shades pf pink, one a little more blue leaning than the other. I used three coats and finished with one coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top.

A Box, Indied - Magically Delicious

 

The fourth polish of the march "A Box, Indied" is Colors by Llarowe Magically Delicious.





Magically Delicious is a medium lilac holo. I used three coats (plus one coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top) on my ring and middle finger.




On my other fingers I applied two coats of Mentality Regal, a plum shimmer with a matte finish. For the stamping I used Sugar Bubble plate SB 019 (available at DRK nails) and Magically Delicious. No topcoat, to preserve the matte finish of Regal.

52 Week Challenge - Mosaic or Stained Glass / Pink and Orange

Mosaic or stained glass and pink plus orange are this week's themes for the 52 week challenge. As I don't own any orange polishes, I chose to try a mosaic mani using three holo shades of pink/red.

This mani took some preparation. I brushed ILNP Very Ornamental, a England Her Rose Adagio and Colors By Llarowe Courage, Brains, Heart on a plastic bag and let them dry completely. Then I peeled the color patches off and cut them into pieces. I polished my nails black (one coat of aEngland Camelot) and placed the polish pieces with the help of a dotting tool directly on the wet polish. One coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top kept the pink pieces in place.

A Box, Indied - Fields Of Gold

Number three of the march "A Box, Indied" is Pahlish Fields Of Gold.





Fields of Gold is a clear base with lots of gold flakies plua some gold hex glitters, red flakies and for an extra sparkle hologrpahic microglitter. It could be worn over a base color, but I decided to wear it on it's own with three coats.

Om my other fingers I applied three coats of Astor Royal Bronze, a multichrome shimmer shifting from pink over bronze to green. On my index finger I added some studs form Born Pretty Store (have you already discovered my 10%-Off-Code on the right?). One coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top finished this mani.

The next "A Box, Indied" polish I want to show you is Glisten&Glow Endless Rainbow.





I started with Cult Nails Midnight Mist as a base color. Midnight Mist das a brown (slightly olive leaning) jelly base with pink shimmer. The picture shows two coats.








Then I added another thick coat of Midnight Mist and just blobbed on Endless Rainbow, a medium pink holographic, directly with the bottle brush on the still wet base. One coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top finished this mani.
