Emily de Molly - Dark Depths colour blocking


I tried something a little different and it kind of worked and kind of didn't. I wanted to colour block an accent nail over a gorgeous glitter. I did manage to achieve that but my choice of colours let me down and the navy blue doesn't show as much a I would have liked. I still like the end results and think it's just as important to share the ones that didn't work as it is the ones that did. I know and now you know in attempting this again I need to pick two contrasting colours over subtle matching colours. The gorgeous base glitter is the rich coloured Dark Depths by Emily de Molly. I am often asked about the silver glitter, this is my favourite silver glitter look and I use one coat of Zoya Trixie an one or two coats of a England's Merlin. Merlin is a fabulous silver glitter and a must have for any collection.

I hope everyone's week is going well, Tx.

Celestial Cosmetics SOA holos - colour block


Today I've used all four holos from Celestial Cosmetics SOA collection. I used Opie as a base colour, then Chapel, men of mayhem and reaper crew for the blocks of colour. I love how it turned out. I used artificial light for the photos, not my choice of lighting usually but I need more hours in the day to get everything done. This design is very easy you just need to paint the base colour and let it dry. Then it's just a matter of placing striping tape and filling in the blocks carefully. 

Yay I'm so happy it's Friday, hope you all enjoy your weekend Tx
