#TGPNPC Frosty: Day 4 of The Neverending Pile Challenge

Pin It

Hi lovelies,

The theme for day 4 is frost. It is a finish disliked by most nail polish lovers. Here is Colorbar 03 Exclusive, a silvery grey with a subtle pink-blue duochrome. 

Colorbar 03 Exclusive

This polish could be the poor cousin to A-England's Princess Tears. As you can see below, it has the same colour and duochrome, but loses out on the holo effect.

This colour is very work-friendly (maybe I should make a separate category for work-appropriate polishes, what say?) and beautiful to look at.

Application can be a pain though. The formula is smooth, but the drying time can test the patience of an extremely impatient person like me. Or is this a problem with all frosts? Do tell.

Stamping on Colorbar 03 Exclusive

Since I managed to dent the polish, I ended up stamping on it with Colorbar Amethyst using a zigzag pattern from XL A. And as per Murphy's law, the topcoat melted the stamping. In IRL though, it was not so very evident so I left it at that.


Here's what the challenge entails:

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hi lovelies,

Today is St Valentine's Day and I have a beautiful manicure just for the day. 
I've realised that the only way I can use all the polishes I own is using the skittlette manicures made famous by Marta Wuz of Chitchat Nails.  

Ain't it pretty? I used a couple of Different Dimension polishes for this look. 

On my pinkie, I layered Different Dimension Cranfairy, a raspberry jelly with magenta, raspberry and hot pink glitter, over 1 coat of Colorbar Exclusive 48, a creme red.

I put down a base of a beautiful light gray creme from VoV (name unkown) and layered Different Dimension Scarlet & Grey Remix, a glitter topper in grey, white and metallic red hexes and circles of various sizes, on my pointer finger.

I layered a thick coat of Different Dimension's Imitation is the Most Sincere Form of Flattery, a glow-in-the-dark polish with micro glitters, and stamped using the single rose pattern from a Red Angel plate. 

I stamped my thumb using the full nail heart design from another Red Angel plate. Since this image was small, I filled in the gaps with the metallic red glitter from the Different Dimension topper.

I really like how the roses turned out. This manicure was a hit in real life, how about the virtual one? Don't forget to leave a comment on whether you like it or not!

31DC2013: Day 13 Animal Print

Pin It

Hi lovelies,

Day 13 of Chalkboard Nails' 31 Day Challenge brought in animal prints. I am not much for animal prints, but I loved the combination of colours I ended up with.

I stamped a zebra print using a neon pink red on a clean dove grey background. I also randomly picked out black, white and hot pink glitters in square and rectangle from various polishes because I am hugely lusting after Glam Polish Bricks and Blocks. I wish Australia would lift its ban on international shipping of polishes. I really need that polish in my life, like right now!
Thankfully, you guys will understand my obsession :)
So, don't forget to leave a line on whether this manicure is to your liking.

Colours used:
VoV (unnamed grey) base

For stamping:
Polish: Colorbar Bloody Marry (neon pinkish red)

Plates: Konad M67 (zebra print)

Accent: Random glitters in hot pink, black and white
