Gradient & Flowers

This gradient came out kind of space-y! I started with Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Celeb City". Then I used that, Zoya "Natty" (vegan) and Nicole by OPI "A Million Sparkles".

 This I loved! I wanted to do a floral/stud combo. The base colour is a very old polish of mine, Revlon "Make Mine Mango".

I couldn't get decent enough pictures of this manicure. It was much prettier in person! I started with Butter London "All Hail the Queen" (vegan) which has some pretty holo sparkle in it and then I added Zoya "Daul" (vegan) which has a gorgeous gold shimmer.

I'd like to note that I'm going to be listing when a polish is cruelty-free or vegan from now on. I will also do this for other beauty items. If I don't list anything, it means that company or their parent company tests on animals. Like, OPI doesn't test but the company that own them, Coty, does.

Neutral vs Colour

Two different looks. One neutral and one colourful!

First, a nude look using shades of brown/gold on the lids.

awkward smile haha

China Glaze "Fast Track" on my nails. LOVE this polish. It is a light brown with gold shimmer. In the sun you can also see red/green sparkle!

Next, a blue/green look copying the diagram on the Revlon Colorstay "Inspired" palette.

 Swatches over NYX Jumbo Pencil "Milk" and alone, no primer. These really pop over the white but over primer are more true to their colour. They can also be applied wet. Overall, I found these were surprisingly pigmented once on my lids (with primer)!

 Half moon mani using one coat of OPI "Dutch Ya Just Love OPI?" over Essence "No More Drama".  I love the shimmer in "Dutch Ya Just Love OPI?".

I think it's fun to play with both colour and neutral shades.
