#31dc2014 Day 21: Inspired by a colour

I feel so lucky every day that I live in Australia and can get my grubby mitts on all the amazing Aussie indie polishes that are on offer. Glam Polish is a big time fav brand of mine. In fact my GPs are my biggest Aussie indie collection, with Gloss n' Sparkle coming a very close second.  For today's colour prompt I browsed my indie racks waiting for something to jump out at me and it was GP Maleficent that caught my eye. It occurred to me that I did purple this time last year also. It was obviously meant to be...purple! 

Polish

• Glam Polish - Maleficent over Dance Legend - Anthem
• China Glaze - Liquid Leather
• Magenta/Purple holo linear foil

I am super fantastically happy with how the foil worked for the gradient tip. It's so interesting looking, like crinkled up lolly wrapper. And Maleficent..oooh how she sparkles!

The next part of the challenge will require some thinking and creativity with the prompts referencing bookies, movies and songs. Thanks to everyone who has been cheering me along by commenting on the blog, IG and FB. Your comments really help me want to keep going xx

#31dc2014 Day 8 - Metallic

Seriously, Julsie's nails at the moment are CRAZY! These are her natural talons, no gel or acrylic overlays, just her natural nails. She changed her shape about 5 months ago from squares and her nails obviously work better as almonds as they have stopped peeling and breaking. Im filled with extreme nail jealously!

Polish:

• China Glaze - Liquid Leather (black)
• Silver scattered holo foil
• Zoya - Electra (holo bar glitter)

For today's metallic theme Julsie used nail foil to create this effect. She dribbled on the nail glue in squiggly lines then dabbed the foil onto the dry glue. It created a really unique effect I think. Im so lucky to have such a fab sis to play nails with.
