OPI - Got the Blues for Red & Fashion a Bow & I Sing in Color gradient
Even though it is 14 Celsius over here...I made a effort to get into the holiday spirit and made this red gradient with stardust! Base colour is OPI Fashion a Bow (one of the greatest reds e v e r), the gradient was made with OPI Got the Blues for Red and I Sing in Color and I finished it all of with China Glaze Fairy Dust. It's all kind of Christmassy right?!

Comparison Essie No More Film, Style Cartel & After School Boy Blazer and a Cirque gradient
To stay a bit with my last post and Essie Style Cartel.....I did a comparison between Essie No More Film, Style Cartel and After School Boy Blazer.
As you can see ASBB is the darkest of the three, this one appears black in most cases. No More Film has more of a grey-purple thing going on, it is still dark but definately more blue than ASBB. And Style Cartel is most blue of the trio and it stays blue in most lights! They are all beautiful and no dupes for sure (I need them all!).
Then I had some tipp wear...
So I did a gradient with Cirque Fascination Street and Ophelia!
The holo in Fascination Street really lifts up the whole colour, it adds light and sparkle. Ophelia drifts happily along in the holoness of Fascination Street and melts into the colour at times and in some lights it pops up and gives it a nice hydrangea twist!
In hindsight I might have added a microglitter to this gradient, like China Glaze All Wrapped Up or Feeling Twinkly, just to give it a bit more sparkle in low light.

China Glaze - Avant garden Collection - Sunday Funday
I loved doing this one: Sunday Funday with CG Liquid Crystal gradient!
It is a slight attempt to copycat a Polished Perfectionist glitter gradient mani like here , I turned it upside down and started glittering at the base of the nail.....
The result is not as clean as AmyGrace makes them (but heh, what she does is just a m a z i n g) but I really love the result nonetheless :-)
Look:
This is 2 layers of Sunday Funday and a good sponging of Liquid Crystal.
The blue of Sunday Funday is very fresh and spring appropriate and the formula was very nice as well :-)
Hope you enjoyed my glitter gradient attempt!
