Spotty Dotty!

Another first!!
Love this mani, simple yet effective and the possibilities are endless given a little imagination!!
I started off simple for my first try just using a purple colour scheme but using both colours for base coats and dots (dark base, light dots every other nail and vice versa for remaining nails.)
I would tell you the polishes used but my avon polish (darker purple) has gone walkabouts since this mani!! If it resurfaces I will post details. The light shimmer purple is a no name purple glitter from claires.
I used a hair pin as a dotting tool but will be purchasing a proper one soon so I can do abit more experimenting!!

First Attempt At Gradient.

Well my first attempt at gradient turned out to be a galaxy/gradient hybrid whatever possesed me to use so much glitter in one go i will never know. I started off with a base coat of Barry M's red glitter then sponged on a purple glitter polish from claires, i finished with a sponging of No7's Betty Blues and hey presto my moment of madness mani was created!! As you can guess removal of this was a hellish process and I can never see myself recreating this mani however I got more compliments than expected!!
Please excuse picture quality, i don't think my camera could deal with all the sparkle!!
