Whenever I’m a little low on nail art inspiration, I always come back to galaxy nails. As long as I try it with a new set of colours, I always feel like I’m doing something new although I may have gone a little overboard on the shimmery polishes this time!
I used Different Dimension Give Me Love as the base colour with piCture pOlish Swagger, Different Dimension Lucky, piCture pOlish Pirouette and Sally Hansen Lively Lilac for the sponging. There’s a galaxy nail art tutorial here.
Different Dimension is an indie brand that’s been on my radar for a while. Any time I see a swatch of their polishes, my eyes widen and I spend a little while drinking in the pretty and I’m finally lucky enough to be the proud owner of a few of my own Different Dimensions polishes. You may have spotted Lucky making an appearance in my last blog post and today I have a full swatch of Merry Go Round.
Merry Go Round is a glow in the dark polish. The base is a milky white and it’s packed with bright glitter. I used 3 coats for this swatch topped with HK Girl top coat although you could just use one coat over a white base.
Where to buy…
Different Dimension nail polish is available from Different Dimension on Etsy
Merry Go Round $5.00 / £3.05
Today’s nail art was inspired by a tablet case that I got for my birthday last month. My friends, knowing all about my love for Chevrons, picked it out knowing that it would make some great nail art inspiration! They were absolutely right, it’s so me!
For the nail art, I started out by painting on a base of Barry M White and topping it with a thin coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast.
I used the Chevron Minis from Nail Vinyls to mark off the chevron sections and individually painted on each colour using a nail art brush. The colours I used for the Chevrons are Rimmel Heart on Fire, Barry M Bright Purple, Sally Hansen Back to the Fuschia, Essie Fear and Desire and Nails Inc Hampstead Gardens.
The holographic polish on my accent fingers is Different Dimension Lucky and I added a few 1.5mm white studs.
It’s all topped off with another coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast.
