Shades: Polka Dots

For polka dots, I'd normally pick a dotting tool and just dot randomly, like many others do I guess. This time, I wanted to try out a new polish! It's Maybelline Colour Show Polka Dot in Rainforest Canopy

It's not that bad either! It's a very gelly consistency with little matte sequins in, the only issues is that it takes at least 3 coats to build up the colour (the 'spots' are evenly spread so this isn't an issue), and if the sequins are on the edge of your nail, they're kinda sharp...

Oh, and this happened...

(And that's a one coat on the nail there)

Anyway here's the finished look! (with 3 coats! It could've done with a couple more too)

I must say, it is an extreme pain in the butt to get off, it must've took me at least 5 cotton pads with pure acetone on to remove is all completely...

Would you buy this polish? I have a feeling it'll be a marmite-love or hate it, polish.

How To: Gradient Nails

Gradient nails are a great way to ensure that your mani matches your outfit over a set period of days (depending on how many colours you use), and it also just looks pretty dang awesome. You've seen a few of my own mani's where gradients have been used (these ones below, in example), especially those in more recent posts! So a tutorial is definitely long overdue- I hope you find it useful!

Nail Parade!
