Christmas Dots

Christmas dots that I'm not really sure I like. It's nice first glance but after a day wearing them they were a bit much. I think I just like softer dots on this scale. I used a custom Powder Perfect as a base colour. The dots are gold Zoya Ziv, Green OPI Don't Mess With OPI and the red is a England Perceval. 

I can feel a migraine coming on so I'm off to bed, I'm just pleased I finlly got some gift wrapping done earlier.

Take care, Tx

Have a fabulous Sunday, Tx.

Hot Pink Skittlette

Hi everyone! firstly I will apologise in advance, Wave of Polish requires a lot of work and my posts here will probably be sporadic over the next few weeks. I will still post here I just may not make every day posts :)

Today's look is a pink I actually like - shock, horror! I used Zoya Reagan for my index and pinkie and to me it's a pretty ok pink :). The glitter is one from Grace-full Nail Polish that will be available when I open my shop sometime after Wave of Polish. It's called Passion and will be a part of my Nailed It accent collection where I will be selling glitter polishes in the one colour that are just perfect for accent nails. The dots with a top off centre dot, I  really don't know what they're called officially but I do like them :)

Have a wonderful day, Tx

International Nail Art Day

I couldn't miss doing a couple of designs for International Nail Art day. This first ones has my two favourite nail art techniques dots and stripes. I just love them. I used Rimmel Lose Your Lingerie as a base for the stripes and did stripes in Zoya Dove, OPI Sparrow Me the Drama, OPI Mod About You and Kester Black French White. The base of the dots is Zoya Dove. I don't do many pink designs but I like the colour combination in this one :)

I've been wanting to try this for ages so I decided Nail Art day was a good times to do it. The pretty soft purple is OPI You're Such a Budapest and the mint green is Rimmel Breakfast in bed. I applied both as base colours then used tape to make the V shape and used alternate colours for the space. Then I stamped with Konad black and a Moyou plate and finished the look by painting the silver line using Zoya Trixie.

There have been some great looks posted on Instagram, follow the tag #inads2014 to see them :)

Zoya Anja Dotticure

Waves hello :) Hope your week is going well, it's Friday here now, thank God for Fridays. Today's design features a gorgeous new to me polish, Zoya Anja. It's a gorgeous vampy ox blood colour with undertones of purple. I added an accent nail in Cult Nails Blackout and added dots of Zoya Purity, Zoya Trixie and Zoya Anja over white. I think it looks great for a winter look. 

Have a great Friday, Tx

Bright and Quirky nail design - dots and Zig Zag

I want to call these circus nails as they are quirky and fun but really it's just me playing around with colours. If you're a windows user you may recognise this palette as Iris available in Word and Publisher. The orange is OPI Toucan DO It If You Try, the green is butter London Jaded Jack, the blue is Essie Butler Please! and the off white is OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls. I like the bright colours together and I'm really enjoying using different colour palettes on my nails :)

Have a fabulous relaxing Sunday, Tx.

Pastel Polka Dot Nails

One of the last pastel designs had to combine two of my favourites, polka dots and pastels. I love how easy they are but they always look beautiful. My index I am wearing Sea Siren - Motion of the Ocean, middle finger is OPI Mod About You, ring finger is Sea Siren Tranquillity and my pinkie is Cate Ruby Sky. I used the same colours in the dots with the addition of white.

I hope you're all enjoying the holidays with loved ones, Stay safe Tx

Zoya Neutral collection, Rue, Odette, Normani and Brigitte

I know these colours again but I truly do just love them. I can't say over green but as of right now they're my favourite colour combinations. I hope Zoya or someone does a cool coloured neutral palette, icy blues, grey, white and silver it would be just as awesome. So today I have Odette on my index finger, Rue is the base on my middle finger, Brigitte is the base on my ring and Normani is on my pinkie. The other colours that weren't base colours were used for the stripes and dots. I just love the colours together - perfection.

It's Saturday here so have a wonderful weekend and stay safe, Tx

Dots and Stripes - butter London

I've always wanted to try this look and I finally got around to it. The green is Squatter from butter London and the coral is Trout Pout from butter London. I started with a base colour of white. I then taped off the top section of my nail, with the green I painted the bottom half and with the coral I added striping tape before painting. I then did a strip of tape across the top of the colour, added striping tape for the nails with lines at the top. I then added the dots, topcoated and all done. An easy simple fun design to do.

Lots of swatches of new polishes from some amazing Aussie Indies coming up for you in the next few days. I hope you like them all as much as I do :) Tx.
