    31DC2014 Day 08: Metallic

      Day 8 into the 31 Day Challenge. I’m up to date and playing at home in real time. Today we have Metallic as the theme. A favourite of mine for sure. Nothing like some finger-bling. Today I went for a shiny silver combo which includes the fitting polishes Color Club’s Harp On It – a silver linear holo, and OPI My Signature is

    31DC2014 Day 07: B&W

    Day 7: Black and White. Didn’t have a lot of time so this was done really quickly – like you can’t tell hehe. Black freehand illustration over a slightly off-white base – since pure snow white is quite stark, not because I was painting in the dark and picked up the wrong colour or anything.

    31DC2014 Day 06: (Not-So-Shrinking) Violet

    For Day 6’s theme, VIOLET, I thought I should try an untried. OPI’s Don’t Violet Me Down. It’s a sheer top coat from the OPI Sheer Tints collection. I built it up layer by layer to get a dark colour gradation. And gah! I have almost nearly caught up to date…

    Day 4 for of the 31 Day Challenge is GREEN. And yes, I am almost caught up! Here I went Green with Envy in a forest green hue. The polish used is Essence 179 Roller Coaster. For such a tiny bottle I actually quite like the Essence brushes – wider brushes are great for easy coverage IMHO, and is something

    31DC2014 Day 02: Orange – L’Orange

    Orange is the theme for the second day of the 31 Day Challenge, so what other theme is more appropriate to choose than, well… ORANGES! Orange polish over mandarin coloured base and mattified with OPI Matte Top Coat.       I feel like devouring a citrusy orange sorbet now…   Please add me to your feed on BlogLovin‘ and
