52 Week Pick 'n' Mix Challenge - 60's & Matte/Texture

Hello again lovelies!  Today I have my mani for this weeks 52 week pick 'n' mix challenge.  I've put both prompts into the same mani again this week, and those two prompts are 60's, and matte or texture.  Now, I know that tie dye is one of the most obviously 60's manis there is, but I haven't done one before, and I've wanted to for ages.......

The Neverending Pile Challenge - Glow in the Dark

 Hi guys, and welcome to another day of the neverending pile challenge.  The prompt for today is glow in the dark.  I don't actually have any gitd untrieds, so I improvised by using an untried neon topper in a glow in the dark mani :D

DIY Sheer Tints Review and Nail Art

Hi guys, you may remember a couple of weeks ago, I reviewed the OPI Sheer Tints (here), and in that post I said I was going to have a go at making my own.  Well, I did, 5 of them in fact, so lets see how they came out.
*Warning, this is a picture and word heavy post.

A is for: Angel Kiss

Hi guys! Today I am starting a new weekly series, along with Charlie from Pocket Money Polishes, Emma from Imagination in Colour, and Anna from Anna Bean's Nails - an A-Z of polish.  Every Thursday we will be going through a different letter of the alphabet, and choosing a shade of polish that starts with that letter to build a mani around.  As you can imagine, some letters will be a doddle, whereas others might be a little bit harder, like Q, X and Z.  Luckily, there aren't any strict rules - one week I may do nail art, another week it might be a swatch, but it should be a nice way to just give us some direction.  I don't know about you guys, but sometimes I take so long trying to chose a polish to wear, that I don't have time to finish my mani in the end.......

Layered Textured Stamping

Hi guys, sorry I didn't post anything yesterday. I decided to shift around the furniture in my room so I can put a 5th spice rack up, as, once again, I've run out of space!  Unfortunately, I may have underestimated how long it was going to take me, so by the time I had finished it was a bit too late to post.  So, this mani is what I would have shown you then......

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go - Day 24 - Abstract

 Hi guys, and welcome to day 24 of the NAGG challenge.  The prompt for today is Abstract, which is actually a prompt I'm quite fond of.  The last mani I put together for an abstract prompt is still one of my most viewed posts today :)  Today I decided to go with a splatter mani, which was a lot of fun.  I tried this once before when I first got into nail art, but I think my polishes were too thick, as all I managed to do was make myself dizzy........

Festive Abstract Foil Mani

 Hi guys, today I have a mani that I have been planning to do for ages now.  You may remember my Abstract Foil Mani from Day 14 of the Crumpet's Nail Tarts 33 Day Challenge.  It's one of my most popular mani's to date, as well as being a personal favourite of mine.  Well, this is a festive version of that mani!
