Wail: LiL Challenge: Blue!

Hey everyone!
I'm writing this post from my garden since it's all sunny and hot still! (Trying to get a tan!)

So today I bring you my blue nails for Life in Lacquer's July Nail Art Challenge!





I used 4 polishes in total, though one can look a bit more like a purple (and one actually is a purple!) and also had the help of a couple of different sized dotting tools and a makeup sponge.


The dotted swirls design is one I found on "Try My Hand". You can find the original post here!


The polishes I used are...

Rimmel London's Metal Rush in the shade "Royal Blue". This polish is a multi-chrome which flicks between shades of silver, blue, green and purple depending on the light, though is mostly blue and purple in shade.




For the dots I used Nails Inc's "The Mall" which is one of my all-time favourite polishes ever! It's a very pretty metallic royal blue shade with as slight purple hue. 



For my ring finger, I first used a coat of Revlon's "Plum Night" which again is one of my all-time favourite polishes. I was gutted when I heard they discontinued it, but earlier this year I found out that it was back! So maybe it wasn't discontinued at all! It's a very nice deep purple creme polish.


Using my make-up sponge, I dabbed Barry M's "Pacific" from their Aquarium collection, over the tip of my plum nail. It didn't really work too well as the shimmer didn't gradient very nicely- but never mine!


And that's it! Thank you for reading and see you all either tomorrow or Friday! (Hopefully tomorrow!)
Enjoy the sunshine while it's here!

Spotted Water Marble!

Hey everyone! :) Today's post is a water marble... with a twist! Instead of a typical swirly marble, this is more of a marble-overlay, with as base colour underneath.
