15 Day Nail Challenge Day #3

As I said yesterday, Fee of Makeup Savvy is running a 15 day nail challenge, and I'm going to try and take part in as many of the challenges as possible! 

Day 3's topic is 'chic'. I was a bit unsure of how to approach this at first, but then decided that for me, French style is the epitome of chic, so what better way to showcase chic in nail form than in a French manicure? I used a base of Mavala's 'Liberty', as yesterday, then coloured in the tip with a sweep of Barry M's Instant Foil Effects in shade 151. I used a top coat of Rimmel's Lycra Pro Matte Finish - I used to use this as a top coat all the time, but have neglected it a bit lately. I love matte nails though, they're so unexpected!

15 Day Nail Challenge: Day #2

17's Limited Edition Best of British Nail Art Kit caught my eye the other day as I was looking for a new makeup bag in Boots; I thought it was really good value for only £5, containing a trio of red, white, and navy nail polishes, each with brushes made smaller for easy nail art. 

Fee over at Makeup Savvy is running a 15 day nail challenge, and day 2 is 'pattern' day, so I thought I'd test out this new 17 Nail Art Kit! I used a Mavala nail polish in 'Liberty' (from a Latest in Beauty beauty box) as a base coat, then the 'Mini Skirt' colour from the 17 Nail Art Kit to add a little starburst design to the corner of each of my ring finger nails.
