Glam Polish's I Want To Play A Game

Glam Polish decided to release a ton of new limited edition halloween colors this past week. Unfortunately they were small batches so once they were sold out that was it, no more. I missed out on one shade I was wanting but I was able to get all the other colors I was hoping to get. Now although they are halloween polishes I am just not quite ready for halloween nail art. So to show off this stunning blue I decided to pair it with a galaxy look. I thought it would make the perfect background for a space look.

The most amazing part of this polish is the iridescent flakies that are in it. They almost look like opal does, when you look at it one way its one color and then you change the angle the color changes. I will say that they are a bit of a pain to get out the bottle and on to your nail, but once on they are just amazing. I did three coats of the polish to make sure that I got the most flakies I could. You could honestly probably only get away with two coats but I am a bit extra.

For the galaxy nails I thought it was only fitting to pull back out my Glitter Daze Space Candy collection. I ripped up a cosmetic sponge into the smallest pieces possible to keep from making the colors spread too much. I sponged down a white first, Kb Shimmer's Eyes White Open, to help ensure that all the pastel colors would show as bright as possible. For the colors I just went back and forth with Intergalactic Sprinkles, Cosmic Cake, and Lunar Cravings until I had the look I was going for. I did take some more of that white and with a brush dabbed on some stars. Once all the layers of polish had dried I went in with my usual coat of Hk girl top coat. Glam Polish is quickly becoming one of my all time favorites brands for those jam packed glitter polishes. You will definitely be seeing more from their halloween collection in my few next upcoming posts, so keep an eye out for them.

Galaxy Nails Mani Swap

The ever so lovely @mvargas_nails from Instagram and I decided to do a mani swap. I had been wanting to go a pastel galaxy look for a while so this was the perfect opportunity. She chose my purple floral design that you can see here.

I was fine right up until it came time to do the stars. Unfortunately my brush that I have been using is starting to fray so it is not as crisp as it used to be. I am looking into ordering a new one. I tore apart a latex free makeup sponge to be able to do the different colors. I usually cut them with I do gradients but tearing them seems to give better results for this look.

I painted the light purple as my base color before I went in with the different colors. I sponged on the blue first, then the pink, yellow, and finally I went back in with the purple to add a bit more dimension. I free handed the stars. Once it was somewhat dry I used Northern Lights to help blend the colors a bit more.

Polishes: Duri Rejuvacote and Sally Hansen Lacey Lilac as base
Sponged with: Opi Can't Find My Czechbook, Color Club Je T'aime and Macaroon Swoon
Stars: Look, Don't Tusk
Top Coats: Inm Northern Lights and Out the Door

You can see the original look here. Be sure to check out the rest of her photos, she has some wonderful designs.

Hope you all are having a wonderful day
