30 Days of Purple - Day 25 - Long Stroke Mani

Hi Goddesses



I hope your Sunday is nice and lazy.  Mine has been dominated by Bluebelle, who did a thorough investigation of the nail room this morning.  And then she puked.  Lol.  So that was a clear signal to tidy it up, remove all shipping materials and .. yeh, just what I LIVE to do!  The good news is that the nail room (and more importantly, desk) are actually tidy at the moment, so I might take some photos for you later!  Oh and here's one of Bluebelle.  Butter wouldn't melt ... yeh, right :)



Today's mani is a companion piece to the short stroke mani I posted a few days ago - HERE.  Whereas that one depended on lots of short swipes of the brush, this one relies on fewer, longer strokes.




Like it's companion, this is random, and there's no right or wrong, making it a great splodgers mani.   Again, you want to vary the texture a little bit - but only with 1 of the polishes.




For this I used a base of Zoya Pinta and then ManGlaze Mink Mitten, OPI Planks A Lot and a medium purple KIKO.




I love the laziness of this - it's simple, and effective, and it was just as popular when I wore it to work as the short stroke version.





Enjoy xx :)
