Barry and his M - Racing Green

Hi Goddesses



Sorry, I've had this in "the vault" for ages.  Usually, there's only one reason that I don't post quickly - because I forgot to write about it whilst I was still wearing the mani.  And yup, exactly what happened here :)



Racing Green seems to be a real favourite of many of you who lust over Barry and his M.  I don't know whether it's the classic name "Racing Green" or whether it's that you all love the colour, but for me who loveth not the greens, I've seen others I like more.




Racing Green is a really dark forest green, shimmering with ill intent.  There's something of the peacock to it in the way that it catches the light, and tonally, it's very cold and blue, very pine green.




This is a colder, bluer green than Glittering Garland, and in some ways it's a non-holo version of Lizard Belly, and you either like this shade of green, or you don't.




For those of you who do indeed love this one, here's some more photo drool.  Enjoy xx :)

Christmas Glitterbomb - Day 21 of the Challenge!


PURPLE CRUMPET FAIRY CHALLENGE – The 31 Days of Christmas

Day 21 – Christmas Glitterbomb


Hi Goddesses



When I originally saw this challenge it was all going to be about red with gold tips, and it still might be, just not today J



Instead, inspired by a post I saw on The Nailaholic I decided to take another swipe at fairy lights, and whaddya know, it turned out all pretty and glittery J



So, this is how beautiful The Nailaholic’s was …




Mine, as youi’d expect, not quite so delicate but I still likey me LOTS.  I don’t know what it is though, I must be the only person in the world that can make a striper do a big fat shit on my nail L



Colours used –

Base = Barry M Racing Green
Gold – a striper – probably Art Deco
The blobs / baubles – ooops, I am struggling to remember L  CG Cheers to You silver, probably SH Downtown Rubies for the red, Kleancolor Vegas Night for the blue, and shockingly I can’t even remember what the purple is.



Sorry!  Anyway, I do love this, it looked super festive and brought me some happy J



By the way, have you seen the INSANE Christmas Tree Jane @ Nailside has just done ?? Oh My God!  That woman has more talent in her dandruff than I have in all my arty fingers.




Not long now ….. need to finish my Christmas Pudding off now.  No, not a real life one, *obviously*, my mani one J



Enjoy J  xxxxx

Top Tip – if you’re ever unsure what a nail colour looks like, go to Google images, which will give you plenty of contrasts and compares.
