If you follow me on Instagram, these nails might look kind of familiar! Since the challenge started, I’ve been working on these manis for the challenge quite late in to the night. By the time I was done with these yesterday, I didn’t have it in me to sit down and write the post so I totally just crawled in to bed and grammed from there! #nailbloggerproblems

I didn’t go for an all out metallic this year, as I’ve never really been a fan of the all over foil look. I do have a lot in my collection though because they’re unbeatable when it comes to stamping. I get a lot of questions about stamping and, in particular, which polishes work best. The answer is always chromes! I’ve only ever come across one chrome polish that didn’t work for stamping and that’s because it was a watery mess. This copper from Beauty UK is a couple of years old now, but still one of my favourites. Plus copper is so in right now. Pinterest said so!

While we’re here, let’s have a little little recap of the challenge so far… Although it’s technically 10 days in, metallic nails are the prompt for Day 8 so I’m a little behind. I’ve done the nails up to Day 10, I just haven’t had a chance to blog them yet so I’m hoping the weekend will give me a chance to catch up.

For the Nails…

…I used NYC Statue of Liberty as my base colour. Once that was all dry, I stamped on this geometric design from Bundle Monster Polynesia Stamping Plate BM-XL119 using BeautyUK Olympic Bronze. It’s all topped off with a coat of Glisten & Glow HK Girl.
