Blue - Aussie Nails Monday

Hello hello! :) Today is my first Aussie Nails Monday on my new blog! How exciting.
If you're not aware of what 'Aussie Nails Monday' is, you can check out my Aussie Nails Monday tab. And while you're there, check out the blogs of all the other ladies who participate! ;D
Today we're doing Blue nails! I wore this mani on Friday for my brother's school sports day because he's in the blue team, Dolphins! I was in this team when I was going to that school too. :)

On my thumb, pointer and pinky I have used 3 coats of OPI "Get Your Number", a liquid sand (textured finish) from the Mariah Carey collection. I love this polish, it's super sparkly while having a really cool texture. I like that the texture isn't too gritty, and it doesn't catch on your clothing or anything (not mine anyway).

On my middle finger I used 2 coats of Sinful Colors "Black On Black" and created a triangle shape at the cuticle using silver holographic hex glitters that I bought from BornPrettyStore.
My ring finger is a base of 2 coats of Sally Hansen "Celeb City" stamped with a dolphin image from a random Fauxnad plate, in a periwinkle-ish light blue stamping polish purchased from MyOnlineShop (you can barely even see the dolphin image LOL, and it sadly was also hard to see in person).

So, are you into textured polishes or do you think they're the next crackle? :P
By the way - starting tomorrow I will be having guest posts on here from some of my favourite bloggers & friends so be sure to come and check them out! :)

  1. I am obsessed with this manicure! I love the colours, I love the liquid sand, I love everything about it! I think textured polishes are nicer than crackle, but I was never a big fan of the whole crackle thing. Textured polishes are cool because you can top coat them and change their look entirely! But I do think they are at risk of being overdone. The Mariah line was perfect in terms of sparkleness which I think is the best way to do a good textured! Thanks for sharing and hello to the new blog!!
