#NailCraziesUnite: Rainbow Watermarble

Water marbling isn't something I am very good at. I managed to use the yellow to create a bit of a swirl pattern then added dots in red, orange, green, blue and purple.

SIMPLES: Skittle with Dots

The Crumpet has a challenge going, to help teach nail art from the simple to the master.

So week 13 is here and we have to come up with a skittle base with dots over the top of it. Here is my example;

Nail Polish: Battle of the Reds

Another day, another battle! This time it is red polishes.

 Eyeko - Saucy, ELF - Light Red, Miss Sporty - 160, ELF - Medium Red, ELF - Cranberry, Barry M - Raspberry, Kleancolor - Metallic Red, ELF - Red Velvet, Sleek - Royalty  ELF - Dark Red, OPI - Sanguine, No.7 - Damson Dreams,  Eyeko - Vampira, OPI - William Tell Me About OPI

First off the top four are such a wide range of shades, which will make the next battle really difficult! ELF - Light Red is a prime colour, so simple. Barry M - Raspberry is a really lovely colour difficult to know where to place it red or a pink?

Barry M Raspberry and Eyeko Vampira made it through the round. Vampira is a very blackened red with red glitter throughout the polish.

I could have easily brought both in to the final but alas Eyeko Vampira made it on its own, purely because its a blackened polish and I have a leaning towards darker shades.

Nails: Silver Hearts

Base Polish: ELF - Dark Red

Something along the lines of blood / vampires.
