31DC2017 - Day 20: Watermarble
Wee, we're two thirds done with the challenge already! These past 20 days went by super quick.
Today, we're looking at the watermarble prompt, and I did a clear and black marble over a white to orange gradient (I'm really looking forward to Halloween, can you tell? :P ).
I totally copied this idea from @nails_by_erin - she did these a while back but I really loved how they look!
Colors used:
- white, black
- China Glaze - Japanese Koi (neon orange)

31DC2016 - Day 29: Inspired by the supernatural
Another glow in the dark mani, yay! I knew that nothing was gonna beat my nails for this prompt last year, so I chose to go for something a bit simpler and more fun this year!

31DC2016 - Day 27: Inspired by artwork
(Sorry for the crummy picture quality today, I need to stop taking pics in low lighting)
So, today's prompt was 'inspired by artwork' and I decided to do something based on an art movement rather than a specific piece. I chose grafitti.
These are super murky and kinda gross, which is actually what I was going for! I wanted to depict a piece of canvas that had been painted over many times, maybe in a rural setting. I am really pleased with how they turned out and it definitely soothes my sudden need for Halloween stuff (I know, I'm a bit early).
Colors used:
- China Glaze - Budding Romance (murky green)
- China Glaze - Trendsetter (beige-y murky green/brown)
- essence - miss captain (muted blue)
- essie - playing koi (sienna)
- KleanColor - Fashionista (murky green to brown)
- KleanColor - Military Green (military green - who would've guessed)
- Maybelline - Faux Green (dusty light green)
- wibo - Nr. 2 (dusty pink) [destashed]

Halloween Splatter
I know what you're thinking; ANOTHER splatter mani!?
Yeah. I originally just wanted to test how opaque Lady And The Vamp was in a splatter mani, then I realized that this was a very halloween-ish color combination, so I decided to put it up.
Colors used:
China Glaze - Budding Romance (murky olive green)
China Glaze - Lady And The Vamp (neon orange)
essie - all access pass (blue-based purple)

Eek! I had a lot of fun with these, and let me just tell you, the orange is BRIGHT! It's Lady And The Vamp by China Glaze. I layered it over white on my ring and pinky finger and wore it on its own on the other two and they are almost equally as bright. I thought I'd have another go at a splatter mani, especially since the last one wasn't my favorite. This one looks amazing though!

| The sun paid me a little visit when I was taking my pictures! :) |
Wee! My first Halloween manicure of the year! I've done a similar manicure to this last year and ended up really loving the look of it, so I decided to re-create it this year!
