#TGPNPC Your Best Granny Colour: Day 41 of The Neverending Pile Challenge

Pin It

Hello lovelies,

Slowly and steadily I come to the end of the Neverending Pile Challenge. As the title goes, this one is about the best granny colour I own.

He, he, he... that would have been my choice because both my grannies never wore polish in their entire lives. Yes. Not. Once.So, I was dutybound to take that shot :) Since the challenge was about polish, I wore Colorbar Fairylite, a shimmery pink polish that is work-appropriate but in no way boring.

And given the name of the polish, how could I not stamp Snow White? I used QA plate 26 and Konad White for the design and the scroll design stamped on the rest of my fingers. I really liked the polish and the design, both of which looked delicate.

What do you think?

#TGPNPC Least Expensive: Day 11 of the Neverending Pile Challenge

Pin It

Hi fellow lacqueraders,

I was spoilt for choice for this challenge. And decided to use up four insanely cheap polishes to get them out of my way. 

Etude 114 (jade green creme), Etude 137 (metallic purple), Insight 231 Bold Blue (dark blue creme), Insight 254 Dream star (shimmery gold-green).

  These are Etude 114 (jade green creme), Etude 137 (metallic purple), Insight 231 Bold Blue (dark blue creme), Insight 254 Dream Star (shimmery gold-green). I got the Etudes and shimmery green Insight for Rs 25 ($0.41). I bought Insight Bold Blue for Rs 35 ($0.58). I think they might contain 7 ml polish. I don't know which polish can be cheaper than this! 

Etude 114 (jade green creme), Etude 137 (metallic purple), Insight 231 Bold Blue (dark blue creme), Insight 254 Dream star (shimmery gold-green).

I put down a base coat of the green creme, and swiped a stripe of the shimmery green in the middle of each finger. I put down a strip of blue on each side of the shimmery green. And then, striped the metallic purple on each side of the blue.
While it sounds complicated, the polishes dried fast and I was done with the manicure in 2 minutes. All I needed was a nail art brush. I used one from a nail art pen. 

Etude 114 (jade green creme), Etude 137 (metallic purple), Insight 231 Bold Blue (dark blue creme), Insight 254 Dream star (shimmery gold-green).

 This is the first time I used stripes in a manicure. I found this to be quite an interesting look. What about you? Leave a comment below.

31DC2013: Day 5 Blue

Pin It

Hi!

Day 5 of the 31 Day Challenge is blue. The night before I received a parcel from Different Dimensions. And it had just what I wanted to meet the challenge.

I had an early morning movie date and in my hurry, I managed to damage my manicure as you can clearly see here. Nevertheless, I fell in love with the polish. Who can resist circle glitters after all! 
The polish on my pinky and pointer is Deborah Milano Sense Tech 10, a beautiful shimmery matte blue. Since I didn't want to topcoat it, I couldn't smooth out the damage.
The polish on the remaining fingers is Different Dimension Never Grow Up. This is a white crelly base filled with blue shimmer and several sizes of blue and silver circle, square, and hex glitters -- some of them holographic. Since the crelly was bluish white, I layered it over OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, a white tinged with grey.
Did you like this take on blue? Do drop a line :)

Polishes used:
Ring and middle: Never Grow Up by Different Dimension
Pinky and pointer: China Glaze Winter Holly
