Glitter Gradient Nails

Hi,

I am still doing simple nail art these days. Though things are getting better with the baby (mostly!) we kind of have a schedule where I get a couple of hours here and there to myself while he naps (again mostly). So here's a glitter gradient I did.

Base is China Glaze Re-fresh Mint. Loving this colour at the moment.

Glitter gradient is with Jordana LA City Nights. It's a mix of medium turquoise and purple micro glitter.

I love how simple and neat this turns out without too much hard work.

You should try a glitter gradient if you like glitter nails but dont wanna go OTT with it.

Till I see you next. Ta-daa

Belated Summer Stripes

Now this is a mani I had done before the smell of polish got to me. Hence the title. It was summer then you see.

Base is a hot pink miss Claire polish. No shade name.

I had tried to make random sized stripes in random order but somehow the final effect was not something I had wanted. Probably not a good combi or my freehand sucks or both.

Ok now I go try something else. Ta-da

Lemon-sicle!

New day new mani. Although it is not as easy as I Thot it wud be to squeeze in a mani amidst all the feeding, burping and diaper changing. But mischief managed!

I am keeping it simple for now. No fancy stamping. Barely managed to put this and I thought I had let it dry but pics show I dented my pinkie. Hmmmm.

Base is china glaze lemon fizz. A nice pastel yellow but slightly streaky. Maybe a second coat would have made it smoother. Topped it with multicolour matt glitter called Pride by twentyseven polish for accent on ring finger and thumb. 

Did u like the combi? I was sure I didn't wanna use a white base though it would hav showed the glitter in a better way.
