U.F.O's

 This is the last mani I've had sitting in my drafts folder for a couple of weeks, so I thought I'd post it now and get the less than perfect photographs out the way first so it's all uphill from here!



Polishes used in this mani: OPI - Nail Envy Matte, A-England - Avalon, La Femme - Purple Glitter, Barry M - Silver Foil Effects and Seche Vite.

Now, A-England is not really the most budget-friendly polish like most of my stash, but I bought it as a little treat to myself, and honestly, I feel like it was worth every penny.  I love everything about this polish, it's THE perfect purple in my eyes, the formula is incredible, pigmentation is excellent, the bottle looks lovely on my shelf, and I love the Arthurian legend that this collection is based on too.  Plus it just makes me feel extra happy when I use it.  But that's enough swooning for today, on to the mani.

I started with 2 thin coats of Avalon, although you could probably get away with one if you're more careful than I was.  I then added 2 coats of Purple Glitter to the ring fingers only.  I stamped the spaceship design from Cheeky plate CH46 with Silver Foil.  Then I stamped the ring fingers with a small planet image from Cheeky plate CH45, and topped it all with Seche Vite

I loved wearing this design so much I left it on for a few days. Although, that might be partially down to the fact that my nerdy brain kept thinking, spaceships over Lake Avalon.........................awesome! : )
