31DC2018 Red Nails

Saturday 1 September 2018


September is here which can only mean one thing - 31 Day Nail Art Challenge time.  I have joined in with this challenge every year since 2014 and thought that I should join in again this year.  I have been in a little bit of a nail art slump at the moment so I am hoping that this challenge will help force me out of it.  It may not be the wisest of moves - doing 31 days of nail art is a lot to take on (especially when I do other nail art challenges and have swatching commitments) but I'm going to give it my best.  

First prompt for this challenge is Red Nails.  I really like these "easy" prompts.  You really can just do whatever you are feeling at the time.  I recently swatched China Glaze Haute Blooded and feel in love with the matte red so decided to break it out again for this first prompt.  I stamped this image from Lina Nail Art Supplies All About Love 02 using Powder Perfect's Black Stamping Polish.




I really like this mani - especially with the matte finish.  Day 1 complete - only 30 more days to go.  I can do this!

    Holding thumbs for you through the challenge. I am also still continuing with normal challenges and posts so I am a little nervous but giving it my best shot :D

  2. Matte red is sexy! What a cool shade.
    Good to see you're joining Tracy 😊

    I'm in a similar boat as you - attempting this along with other commitments and swatch duties on top of a backlog from a chaotic few months. Day 1 and I'm already wondering why the heck I decided to do this haha 😂

    1. Thanks Zara! I think I have an unfair advantage when it comes to the inlinkz. I'm based in Australia which means my timezone is ahead of a lot of others.
