Galaxy.

A lover of space since a young age, I got really excited when I saw galaxy nails for the first time. And then I also saw a lot of .. erm, less than great looking examples of the trend, and I became a little weary. However, I found it time to take the leap and simply try.
Some reference..

Polishes used (left to right):
Wild & More 109
Catrice - 840 - Genius in the Bottle
Catrice - 31 - Even More Heavy Metallilac
Essence - 43 - Where Is The Party?
Hema - French Manicure striper
Hema - 10
Koh - Midnight Blue
Koh - Black
YSL - No35

Left.
Right.
I was getting along relatively well, sponging away with my various colours and dotting the stars. And then I'd finished and.. put glitter on top. In retrospect, the glitter was a mistake. I had seen glitter work really well in galaxy nails by other people, but my glitter is FAR too green and there's just too much of it. So I wish I hadn't done that.
Will have to repeat sometime, with a less dense glitter, or going without altogether.

Where is the Party?


You know it, you've read about it, you might even own it. Essence's duochrome 'Where is the Party?' is definitely a nice one to look at - from every angle.
My favourite aspect of it is that the main 'duo' is green and purple, a colour combination I really love. There's also hints of gray and blue in the right kind of light. A very interesting colour, indeed.
I don't have too much to say about it, to be honest! It's simply the colour I had on prior to Midnight Blue and had reasonable pictures of.

Natural light in both.
