15 Day Nail Challenge - Day 11 Metallic

I didn’t have much time for today’s nails so I simply painted them with GOSH holographic! I know that this isn’t technically metallic but I really wanted to include it in this challenge, I was going to use it for the final day but then I had a better idea for that day so decided to use it today.

I found this polish in a clearance bin in Superdrug! It was less than ¼ full with polish and almost totally dried up and unusable. However, I had wanted it for so long and it is discontinued so I bought it anyway, even though it was £2 which I thought was steep for something that I potentially would never be able to use. I took it home and after almost 100 drops of polish thinner and a few steel balls later, this is what I was left with! 

 

 

I don’t think it is actually as holographic as it was originally meant to be but it is still pretty special. It is very difficult to apply and the formula is a nightmare to work with. Additionally it shows up every single flaw in your nail particularly because it is impossible to use a regular base coat with.

15 Day Nail Challenge – Day 4 Galaxy

Galaxy nails! My absolute favourite nail look to date! They are easy to do, look fantastic and there are endless colour combinations.

Without further ado here are some pictures:

 

I used Rimmel - Midnight Blue as my base colour (just £1 in Poundland!) then sponged on Collection 2000 – Hello Sailor!, Essence – Where Is The Party?, Essence – Choose Me!, Essence – Space Queen, Color Club – White, NYC – Prince Street, a Hello Kitty dark pink from M&S, OPI – Mediterranean Moonlight and Orly – Oui. Lastly I added some stars with Gosh – Holographic and a dotting tool.

 

I couldn’t resist adding a coat of a matte top coat, there is just something about matte glitter that looks fantastic. Here are the results:
