Rainbow Challenge Day 5&6 - Purple and Pink

Sorry girls! I'm very late posting this, but I have an exam on friday (thermodynamics, yuck D:) and I've been quite busy.

I'm not going to write much this time, but I'll leave you a shit load of photos of my favourites.

Let's start with the purple. This is Nubar Purple Rain Glitter in 2 coats.






The purple isn't as dark as my photos show, but I couldn't really get it's actual colour. :S

For the pink I chose Yesensy #36. I don't really like pink nail polish, even though I have a few, but I kind of like this one, because it's matte. I used 2 coats of it, no topcoat.







Once again, here's the list of all the girls who took part of this challenge:

Rainbow Challenge Day 5 - Blue

Blue is my favourite nail polish colour, I own so many blues that I thought I would have a hard time picking one, but that wasn't the case.

This is my oldest nail polish, it's around 14-15 years old and it's still in perfect condition. Here is Wet 'n' Wild #415A in 2 coats.

Rainbow Challenge Day 4 - Green

The nail polish I'll be showing you today is new, I just got it this week, but as soon as I swatched in on my wheel, I was completely in love!

I've been lemming this one for soooo long! Mostly because of the kitty in the bottle, but the colour is amazing as well.

So this is Peripera P027 Metallic Green, in 2 coats. The formula is one of the best I've ever tried, it has an incredible pigmentation and the brush is really good too!

I'll just let the photos do the talking now:

Rainbow Challenge Day 3 - Yellow

I like yellow on me and I just found this out recently, when I got a neon yellow for review. I used to think it was one of those colours I would never wear and I bought one just to use in nail art.

This is what I had on my nails when I decided to enter this challenge, so I've been saving this photos to post on this day, as I only have one more yellow and it was posted here already.

I did this manicure for one of the portuguese FB groups, the theme for that week was animals and I came up with an owl. xD

This is 3 coats of Mellow Yellow by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear, topped with another 2 coats of Whimsical by Revlon. That's a lot of coats, but moving on to the photos:

For this I used:
- Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Mellow Yellow
- Revlon Whimsical
- Revlon Colorstay Coastal Surf
- Eyeko Rain
- Andreia #19
- Dotting tools
- Head pin
- Nail art brush
- Paper reinforcements

Rainbow Challenge Day 2 - Orange

Oh damn...I only have 1 orange in my entire collection and I posted it not so long ago. What now? Oh well, I'll just try to make it look different, somehow...

So I did! This is Leticia Well #493 (review here) with Hits Hefesto on top of it.




Sorry I couldn't take more photos of it, but my camera decided to die on me... -.-'


This is reeeeeaaaally bright! Can you imagine how a bright holographic neon looks in the sun? I think every one looked at my nails today, they just wouldn't go unnoticed. I don't really like that kind of attention, but I'm sure I'll be rocking this mani again! Maybe when I'll go to the beach. ^^

Rainbow Favourites Day 1 - Red

Bec, from Lacquer Dreams, came up with this challenge, and you can read more about it here.

So today is red. I had a tough time choosing my favourite in this colour. I have lots of reds, and even though I don't wear them much right now, they're still one of my favourite colours. Trying to makes things easier, I came up with a top 3 favourites and I couldn't pick just one. :S My favourite reds are Kleancolor Chunky Holo Scarlet, Hits Ares and Nubar Vino. Nonetheless, the star of this post will be the Kleancolor red.

So here it is, in all it's mighty splendor:






I used 3 coats of it, just to be sure, because it was late at night and since it is a jelly I didn't want to take any chances, but I think 2 coats were enough. I really love all the sparkles, but unfortunatelly, the multichrome effect I see on the bottle doesn't show up on the nail. 



I couldn't end this post without showing a photo of Ares and Vino, but please excuse the bad photo of Vino, this was way before I started to blog and I sucked at photographing nail polish. xD
