Summer Challenge Day 3 - Summer Dots

Hi Goddesses



Welcome to Day 3 of the challenge, and I'm hoping all these manis are starting to get you in the summer mood.



Today's mani was simple - summer dots - and I was a bit stuck for inspiration, as everything I wanted to do was too similar to other manis I've done.  Needless to say, this was not the mani I planned, but I'm still really happy with how it turned out.




This is 2 coats of the glorious Lesbihonest from ManGlaze, a deep, dark, troubled fuchsia with veiled depths.  I matched it with dots in the equally vibrant ManGlaze Butt Taco and a scary neon egg yolk yellow from Stargazer.




As some of you know, I've never been the big matte fan, but I really love these vibrant, life-out-loud colours in a matte format.



I also believe in Recycled Nails - doing something different with your mani on Day 2, so I just glossed this one up.  It still looks sensational, but I do feel the matte version has more impact.  Oooh, did you ever think you'd hear a Crumpet say that?!




The beauty of the ManGlaze polishes is that they are deceptively complex.  All of them have secret hidden depths where shimmery, threaded delights are lurking, waiting to be unlocked.  It's one of the joys of glossing up a matte - it gives you a totally different appreciation of the art that went into the polish.




Just to echo what everyone else says - ManGlaze wears well.   And now it's perfect for summer too.


Enjoy xx :) and don't forget to check out all the other talented ladies on the Challenge -
