The Neverending Pile Challenge - Pastel

 Hi guys, welcome to day 2 of the Neverending Pile Challenge.  The prompt for today is Pastel, and I went with KIKO Sugar Mat - 634, a pinky lilac creme texture.  I actually only had 2 pastels in my untrieds, so I decided to pick a non-pastel untried to stamp with, 2true Aphrodite, a highly pigmented deep pink foil.

I really liked the way these 2 textures played against each other, I think it makes this mani a lot more interesting. The image is the same one I used in yesterdays leadlight mani, Pueen 63.
You guys have probably already noticed that there is a corner missing from my middle finger, unfortunately that happened before I had a chance to photograph this mani, but I didn't fancy taking it off and starting again, so I just went with it.
Booooooo!  As you can see it wasn't that big, but I decided to take them down a bit more to hopefully avoid any more breakages.  My nails seem to be growing very quickly at the moment anyway, so it's no biggy :)
Anyway, breaks aside, I think this mani was pretty cool.  I love the spirals on this plate, and it was a nice change to wear a cream texture for once, I only own 2, and I never seem to wear them, as textured glitters always appeal to me more.  That said, I am hoping to get hold of a black creme texture soon!
What do you guys think of this mani?  Are you a fan of creme textures?

    1. Yeh, the poor creme ones did all get pushed to the side when the glitter ones started popping up! That sucks that they haven't reached you yet, I hope they turn up soon :) xx
