Starry gradient nail art

Gradient nails are super easy and fun and I keep making mental notes of the different combinations I want to try. One of them is this metallic gradient going from champagne gold to bronze-y brown.


Base: miss claire champagne gold (it actually has no shade name, just a number), Maybelline bold gold, Lakme metallics 241 and chg chiaroscuro.
Stamped with Konad black using Pueen 44.
Topped with Girl HK tc.

The below pic is before clean up but I just wanted to capture the base gradient. It would work really well for parties as well as normal day to day base coz it's not too blingy.

See ya soon with another mani.

Checkered Blue

HiYa!
I am finding myself quite short of time these days. Lotsa work at work.
My last 2-3 manis turned out duds! and I am finding myself short of posts too! 
I have a couple of new polishes to swatch and try which I will hopefully do soon.
Meanwhile enjoy the pics. 


Base: Unbranded Sandy Matt Blue

I love how these look. Very diff texture..but dont feel gritty.
Very smooth, 2 coats. Another mani using this type of polish. Here

Stamping Polish: Another Sandy Matt Silver
Stamping Plate: OB 8

Do you like stamping?

Chunky Holo Goodness

I dont have many words to describe this super-awesome polish from Kleancolor..except one:
AWESOME!
This is another thing the word "awesome" reminds me :p
Below is 2 coats of Kleancolor chunky holo black on Colorama black as a base.
Smooth application, didnt require any struggle to pick up the glitter. Does have a weird smell so keep your windows open.
This is a pic of the bottle. Its a super nice black jelly with big, medium and small holo hex glitters.

I wasnt able to capture the colour shift well.
The applied polish changes from a red to orange to yellow to green in various angles of light both indoors and out doors. It is not an in your face glitter, but it does get attention.
