Digit-al Dozen DOES Nail Heroes - Darling Diva and Dotting Tools - oh, and 40GNAI

Hi Goddesses



It's another wonderfully catchy blog post title!!  Haha.  Today merges the final day of DD Nail Heroes week with 40 Great Nail Art Ideas.






Let's start with 40GNAI first.  My prompt today is dotting tools, and the colour is red.  And I fell oh so lucky with this prompt.  I have no idea who invented dotting tools, but I wanted to acknowledge him / her this week as a supreme Nail Hero.  I honestly don't know what I'd do without dotting tools - they're my everything!  I use them to dot, colour in, draw outlines, everything!  Whoever you are, THANK YOU!






The prompt of red was also a great opportunity to show you my 2 favourite red holos of all time - ironically, both by the same brand, Darling Diva.  I've been a Diva fan for about 4 years and seen the brand evolve from weird glitter mixes and strange potions, to classy holos and vixen central.






I'm going to say this loud - The Alchemist, by Darling Diva, is THE best red holo of all time.  Bar none.  No exceptions.  A pure, bright red, it's perfect.  






If you like your reds a little vampier, you'll want Bewbs, also by Darling Diva - a fantastically blood-drenched gothic red.  Again - accept no imitations.






I wanted this mani to show what dotting tools can do, and how much fun they can be.  Ultimately though, this was a BITCH to photograph.  It looked so pwetty on my nails!


Finally, just in case this is goodbye, GOODBYE and SO MUCH LOVE and THANKS for following me.  I do think there will be other posts, especially of the Digit-al Dozen variety, but they are likely to be very random!   Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this blog a part of your life xx
