.... LacquerDreams Halloween Challenge - Halloween Mani ...

It's already Halloween here in Australia and while we don't really celebrate it in my household I still did my nails all pretty and stuff.  I didn't completely finish the LacquerDreams month but I had fun on the days that I attempted.


I've gone for spiders and this was inspired by a mani I saw on pinterest but there was no credit [why pinterest why!!]   Google images was zero help so if you know who originally did this please let me know so I can credit properly!


The tips are Essie Meet Me At Sunset and the spider is made from Rimmel 60 seconds - Black Out and Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear -White On and topped with Essence Gel Look topcoat.

... 7 days - 7 ways! Day 2 ...

7 days - 7 ways! 
Day 2 - Shattered Look
Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat - Antiqued Gold
Call it what you want ... crackle, mosaic, shatter ... it's all the same. This craze has been and gone overseas but has been hitting the shelves here lately and more people in real life have been asking about this lately so I wanted to include it in this series.  Personally I don't mind the look but there is only so much you can do with it before you become bored.

This is Antiqued Gold which is a bit different than the regular crackles as it's a metallic and brings something a little extra to the party. I personally find with the Sally Hansen range to wait until your polish underneath is completely dry before adding the crackle. In this case it was left overnight before applying. Results will always vary and you'll never get the same result which can be frustrating if you get little to no crackle happening.
I found that the gold worked well with the bright pink and even in the spots where I didn't get a great coat coverage you can still see the pink peeping through. Heads up to try and not get this on your skin when painting as those little metallic glitter particles like to stick around and are a pain to remove even with remover.

I've so far found the range of Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoats at Target and Priceline.
