New 31 DC - Day 5 - Purple

Hey loves ♥



Today is the fifth day of the challenge, and today's post color is purple. It took me a few tries to finally decide what I was gonna do for this post, at first I was gonna just post a plain color, a light purple, but I changed my mind.
Like you all know, I'm an Illamasqua lover, so as usual I used an Illamasqua polish as my base color. Faux Pas as the base color, and A England Lady Of The Lake for the gradient. The colors are close, which makes this gradient even prettier.




I'm not just an Illamasqua fan, I'm also a big gradient fan, but it had been a while since I did a nice gradient, so I'm glad this one turned out so great.
Love,

Illamasqua Blow + Stamping

Hello there, hope you all had a lovely day!

Today I got a bunch of nail mail, and in one of them there were the three new stamping plates I bought. I knew I HAD to use one of them, and I already had my mind set on which one. I used Konad M63, btw.
I tried a LOT of combos, no joke. I must have changed my mani over 5 times until I finally found a nice combo.
I used Illamasqua Blow as my base color, just cause I've been wanting to use it for a while now. As you all probably know yellow polishes usually have an awful formula, but not this one. Blow is a little watery, but nothing that would drive you mad. I used only two normal coats, and I got full coverage, no bald spots.
For the stamping I used A England Dragon, then a thin coat of Seche.







I know this is not the best stamping manicure, but I do like it :)
Love,

Saran Wrap Nails

Hello again :D

Two posts in one day, that's rare! LOL Well, I put Illamasqua Nomad on, but I just can't stand my nails with simple colors, I need something else, so I decided to try the Saran Wrap nails, something I've meant to try for a week now, but just today I remembered and decided to try.
I looked through my stash looking for a polish to wear with Nomad, and I was gonna go for A England Dragon, I did my pinkie, but I didn't like the two colors together, so I thought "Why not Saint George?!", So I picked Saint George and tried it out, and turns out Nomad and Saint George look great together!
I'm not sure if I like the result or not, but I know the two colors look good together!
I used Illamasqua Nomad and A England Saint George, plus one coat of Seche Vite :)











I still don't know how I feel about this on me, but looking at these pictures I'm liking it.
Love,

A England Dragon

HELLO THERE ♥♥

Today I'll be showing you the second one from the three A England's I bought on the Ninja Store.
Like Saint George the formula was great, and pigmentation was fabulous as well. But this one needed two coats.
Dragon is this perfect green holo, shines a LOT and the holo shows very easily, but my pictures didn't capture it that well.
The pictures show two coats of Dragon and one thin coat of Seche Vite.

















A England Dragon can be purchased in the Ninja Polish store for $10, just click here. If you want to look at some other A England just click here. She ships fast and it gets to you just as fast.
Hope you enjoyed the post :)

A England Saint Geroge

HELLO THERE ♥

Today's post I have Saint George, a PERFECT holo polish. The formula was amazing as well, and it's very pigmented, so one could one have been just fine, but I felt the need to use a second coat. The cleaning part was a little annoying, because this polish is very pigmented I had a hard time cleaning my cuticles, they were a little stained, but I was able to deal with it!
I was lemming this polish since it was released, but took me a while to finally be able to buy it, and I couldn't be happier with it!!!
Like I said before I used 2 coats of Saint George and one coat of Seche Vite.











Hope you have enjoyed this post, and that you have loved this polish as much as I have. My pictures don't do it justice, but I hope you all like it ♥♥
