Wiki'd Nails: Bridge

Hey everyone!

Today's "Wiki'd Nails" prompt is Bridge. Soooo I chose my favourite/most sentimental bridge- Golden Gate Bridge.

It's often pretty foggy around the area, so I wanted to try and incorporate that onto my nail design.

And so, this is my attempt at a foggy Golden Gate Bridge nail design.




To begin with, I did a slight blue gradient, using Barry M Supersonic, Models Own Blue Glint, and Bourjois Bleu Water, to create a sky-like background. Then using a striper and a detail brush (both of which I need way more practice of using) and Nicole by OPI's American as Apple Pie polish, I painted on the bridge itself. Finally, I added foggy-clouds with a dotting tool and Morgan Taylor's All White Now, before swirling in some grey Leighton Denny Zero Gravity.




So I hope you like my bridge nails- it's been the one challenge prompt so far that I've looked at and had an actual idea of what to do.

I hope you like the design, and don't forget to check out the other participant's nails shown below :)

Mail: Rimmel Velvet Matte Midnight Kiss Swatch!

Hello everyone! Before we get started, it's very very nice to see you all here- my hugest apologies for being so bad with posting lately. Moving away from home really takes it out of you, and my Uni's "Welcome Week" timetable was craaazy! Though I got to go to Chester zoo... Which was awesome! Anyway, let's crack on with the post shall we?  Today, I'm bringing to you a recent release and purchase. Rimmel London's "Velvet Matte" polishes were released alongside their new Matte Apocolips range, and a new selection of some "Rimmel by Kate" products!  I purchased three new polishes- two Velvet Matte's in the shade "Midnight Kiss" and "Sumptuous Red" (love the names!) which are a dark blue and pinky-purple, and also a new Salon Pro by Kate called "Saturn" which looks amazing.  Today, I'm swatching Midnight Kiss for you guys, but keep an eye out for the other two coming this week! ...
