Rainbow Nails - Day 7 - Pink and my latest haul

I have really really enjoyed my first nail challenge and I am looking forward to getting into another one.

So, here are my pink pictures. I wanted something bright, bright bright so went for a base coat of a deep fuschia by Miss Sporty 322, and topped it off with Models Own Magenta Divine. I love this Models Own nail varnish as it only takes two coats to be a really really heavy colour.

For some reason my camera didn't want to play ball so the pictures aren't as clear as I would like. But I am sure you will get the impression.

In other news I have also got these lovelies for myself today

First 4 are Sinful Colours shades...

Paris
All Mighty
Whats Your Name
Show Me The Way

They were all £1 each from poundworld - bargain.

In addition I got the three Essies from TkMaxx for £7.00 in the clearance section.

They are...

Capri
Chocolate Cake
Tiny Wine-ey

I have never owned any Essies before so I am looking forward to having a go with them.

If there are any more nail challenges about let me know, I am happy to participate

Rainbow Challenge, Day 5 - Purple

I have been proper looking forward to this day. Now we are getting to the end of the spectrum that I love. But as all good things go to pants, loads of stuff cropped up so I couldn't post yesterday.

However, I decided to go with a Magnetics polish I hadn't tried before because it was a finish I hadn't used this week. As I haven't used my China Glaze Magnetix 'Drawn to You' I thought I would give it a whirl.

I already have magnetx that I purchased from Ebay, so I don't have the official China Glaze ones. I chose the star as it is the prettiest, although it doesn't give as dramatic effect as the straight and diagonal ones.

So, without further ado here are the pictures...

Rainbow Challenge, Day 5 - Blue

For me we are still in a nice end of the scale, and it was easier than I thought to pick my blue. My initial thoughts were China Glaze Frostbite as I just LOVE that colour. But today is very warm and humid so I didn't want to slap something to remind me of the winter all over my fingers.

So, with that in mind I have gone with Miss Sporty bright, but light blue, 456 with a top coat of Models Own Indian Ocean.

I love Miss Sporty polishes as they are really inexpensive, but they have lovely colours and they apply really well for me. Anyway. What do you think?

Rainbow Nail Challenge - Day 3 - Yellow

Okay, well my first admission is I really really dislike yellow. I don't own ANY yellow clothes, and I only have 4 yellow nail varnishes and one of those came in a set so I didn't choose it!

So, what i did. I wanted to make the yellow as little noticeable as possible, so I covered it up with chunky glitter. If I had chance I would have covered it up with fire!

Rainbow Nails Challenge - Day 2 - Orange...

I am going to admit now that orange really isn't my favourite colour. However, due to a recent donation from my lovely mum I did get into it a tad.

Well you asked for orange and you are going to get it.

I started with these, I couldn't choose a favourite. So, had to improvise

The polishes I have used are.... ( from left to right)

Miss Sporty 452

Technic - Juicy Jelly

Color Club - unnamed (came in a set)

Nina Ultra Pro - Orange Flame

Color Club - unnamed ( came in a set)

Miss Sporty - 326

I used Miss Sporty 452 as my base, and my thumb developed spots of the lovely Technic Juicy Jelly

Then came some dots of the colour club peach on my index finger

Then we got some dots on my middle finger with the lovely neon Orange Flame

Dots on my ring finger in Colour Club orange sparkly no named!

Then finally my pinky gets some dots in Miss Sporty 326

And this is the final result on all the nails!
