Boots 17 Spring Petal

So as you know I bought the new spring shades from Boots 17 the other week.
I showed you Juicy in my 31 Day Challenge Day 4 post and now I'm going to show you Spring Petal.

It's. So. Pretty!

Spring Petal is a pinky coral with pink shimmer. It's so difficult to describe and even more difficult to photograph but I shall try to explain it best I can.
It almost changes colour in different lights. Sometimes it appears to be and more of an orange pink which kinda glows and other times it's a soft pink coral with an understated but gorgeous none the less pink shimmer. It's just. So. Pretty!

This is the best I could get to try capture the shimmer and it really doesn't do it enough justice!

I have Glisten to show you too and as I predicted, I did go back to get Mellow Yellow.
I just couldn't resist.

31 Day Nail Challenge - Day 5 - Blue Nails

Day 5 of the challenge called for blue nails and the blue I choose was Nails Inc Tudor Way.

I do love a navy blue and this is such a gorgeous one.

I have done these nails before several times, I just love the combination of colours and the pattern so much. It was inspired by my daughter swimming costume!

Here's a nice grainy picture of the first time I did these nails with the swim suit in the background.

For the polka dots I used Boots 17 Mini Skirt. The flowers are Barry M Shocking Pink and Boots 17 Fairy Cake and for the leaves I used Barry M Spring Green.

I'm going to be so sad to take these off!

31 Day Nail Challenge - Day 3 - Yellow Nails

Any one seen Despicable Me?

If you have then you probably know what I am about to show you.

Yep. Minion nails!

I can't explain to you how much joy these nails have brought me, or how many times Mr GT has rolled his eyes at me when I've been caught making them dance. They are quite possibly my most favorite nails I have ever done!

The yellow I used was Barry M Lemon Ice Cream. Then I used GOSH Blue Balloon for the tips, Models Own Nail Art Pen, 17 Moonstruck and Mini Skirt for the black, silver and white details and 17 Fairy Cake for the little pink tongues.

Love 'em!
