Neon Week - Different Dimension Neon Holos

Hi Goddesses



And so Neon Week officially comes to an end.  I am a little shocked by how much I've loved it, but never fear, I have enjoyed it sooooo much that there is much more neon to come over the next couple of weeks.  It makes me HAPPY !!!


We end the week with some swatches I did a while ago.  I think these polishes came out at the end of January and I remember being *ridiculously* excited.   Since then, the world and its mother have released some amazing punk bright holos, but ooooh, I do love these.



So these are from the 80s Baby Neon Collex by Different Dimension.  I bought a couple and was also sent a couple for review.   What I love most is the thickness of these polishes.  They are all 2 coaters, but ridiculously glossy, so much so that every time I have worn then, people have asked me whether I am wearing gels.  No, just great polishes :)   The holo is scattered, for a delicate effect which doesn't battle the colour, but works with it.





Whatever is the purple.  It's hard to get a neon purple, but this is loud and bright and lovely.






Ditz is the bubblegum pink.  We've seen this shade a LOT this summer, and I must do a comparison post, because I think I have a whole paw's worth of polishes in this colour now.





A proper pink holo was my summer holy nail grail, and this one does not disappoint.  Rich, cheerful, but not sickly.






Homeboy is the blue.  He is brash and loud too - a really lovely bright shade.






This one isn't too neon, which makes it all the more versatile.





And finally Tubular, the orange.   This one looks sensational, and wow, what a unique colour to get in holo format.






This just looks amazing from every angle - intensity turned up to 11, and fazers definitely on stun.






All of these polishes can be bought on Etsy HERE and you can follow on Facebook HERE.  Some of these polishes were sent to me for an honest review - regardless, I love them all.  Enjoy xx :)

Neon Week - Different Dimension Neon Holo Swirls

Hi Goddesses



This week is Neon Week on the blog, just as the sun in the UK is FINALLY starting to shine!




I must admit, I wasn't too head over heels with the idea, but once I started, I literally have not been able to stop.  So much so in fact, that I won't be doing the Tri Polish Challenge this month because right now IT'S ALL ABOUT THE NEONS!!!!  Lol.





Today's design features 3 of the awesome neon holos from Different Dimension.  The purple is called Whatever, the orange is Tubular and the pink is Ditz.  These all have an amazing thick formula and almost look like gel nails once on.  Truly fabulous.




The pattern was inspired by THIS tutorial from Fierce Make Up and Nails a couple of weeks ago.  I saw it and fell in love, and whilst mine is a *little* bit different, it wouldn't have been born without Nori's amazing talents.





I love how this came together, and how obnoxious yet "right" the colours look together :)  It reminds me of a big swirly tutti frutti ice cream.


Enjoy xx  :)

Digit-al Dozen DOES Animal Week - Purple Leopard, Then ..... and NOW

Hi Goddesses




So, this week, you've mostly been seeing 9 month old manis on Digit-al Dozen Week.  They had sat in the vault for yonks cos there was never the "right" time to post them.  Anyway, the 4th set of photos was a bit meh, so I decided to do a Then and Now piece.



The purple extravaganza you are seeing is the NOW version, just so we're clear.  OK ?  It's sublime and I love it.  The base is Smitten Polish Beautyberry Gumdrops (coming to a Work Wear Wednesday sooon), with a Different Dimension Whatever gradient, topped off with Konad m57.




And THIS ^^  is what I did 9 months ago.  Same stamp, different base.   For this I used 2 CG Neons - Flirty Tankini and Beach Cruise-r.



For me, the old version is quite ghastly.  The photos are a bit horrific and I don't like the nail shape.





The NOW ones ... aah, now these I love.   This is just 2 polishes that were born to live together.   Side by side, they look dissimilar tones, but sponged together, wow .... the gradient from Bliss.





Also, when you're rocking the shorties, is there ANYTHING that looks cooler than purple leopard print ?  Maybe a hot red mani, but that's about it.  This mani was born for short nails.





The very interesting thing about this mani is how the stamping has smoothed the gradient out :)  True!  I think the pattern takes your eye off the colour change and compensates for it in some way, making it look even awesomer than it is!




I hope you've enjoyed Digit-al Dozen this week.   Personally, I've been a bit shocked to discover half my friends seem to have an unhealthy obsession with frogs lol but ....   


Tri Polish kicks off again next week and I do not have a single mani prepared.  Crapping myself does not even cover it!


Have a great weekend xxx :)
