A2Z: P is for......Pale

Hiya lovelies!  So today I have a quick post for you - it's my "P is for Pale" mani for last weeks A2Z.  I went very literal and did a pretty pastel gradient with some white stamping.  Very pale indeed!


I started with a base of Rimmel 60 Seconds - Breakfast in Bed, which is a beautiful pale mint with a soft silver shimmer.  The shimmer does kind of disappear on the nail, but it's still a really pretty colour.  Then I did a gradient with Breakfast in Bed, LaFemme - Ice Blue Cream, and a bottle of LaFemme - Lilac Cream, that I mixed with some white polish to make a lighter, pinker version.

 Then I stamped with Konad - White, and MoYou Mother Nature 01, and added a top coat.  I did consider mattifying this, but although I'm sure it would have looked awesome, I decided to leave it shiny today :D

So, I really loved this mani, these 3 colours look so good in a gradient together, and I think the swirly pattern really suits them.  I also used my Creative Shop stamper for this, so I was able to stamp 2 nails out of each image I picked up - how awesome is that!?

Okay, so I'm afraid that's all from me today, but I do have my Q mani for next week painted already, so hopefully I can get that posted on Thursday this week.  I really want to get back into the swing of things, I miss this a lot :(  Until then, I will leave you in the extremely capable hands of my fellow A2Zer's via the thumbnails below.
