This manicure consists of two main elements - polka dot nails and the kaleidoscope design nails. The polka dot ones are plain easy and created using dotting tool so I'll focus on the kaleidoscope design nails.

How to:

Step 1 - Paint several rectangle shapes larger than your nails on a non-porous, smooth surface like a plastic folder or a silicone pad using a top coat. Once they dry properly stamp over them with your chosen design.

Step 2 - Start colouring in different parts of the stamped design using small brush and different nail polish colours. Bear in mind that the parts that are transparent will be in the colour of nail polish you are wearing underneath

Step 3 & 4 - Paint your nails with two coats of nail polish and let them dry OR apply the decal over the second layer of nail polish while it's still wet. Apply coat of topcoat over the nail which will seal the decal in place

Step 5 - Clean up all the excess of decal and edges of nails using flat brush dipped in acetone

Products used:

Spell Polish Swinging Through Stars

MoYou London Kaleidoscope 04 stamping plate

Konad Special Stamping Polish in black

Seche Vite Top coat

Small detailing brush

Here's a video tutorial on stamping decals I did earlier, it's basically the same process only with different design:

I think that this design would look even better in some bright colours but I wanted to use the new Spell Polish multichromes and I really liked to see the colour-shift in the design. What do you think? What colours would YOU use?

Have a good day and stay polished! Lucie x

Hello lovelies,

Happy Halloween! It's the end of the month again and that means only one thing - Nailvengers Assemble post! Since it's Halloween today we'll all be doing some themed nails. Joining me in the challenge will be Sammy (The Nailasaurus), Alice (One Nail To Rule Them All), Allie (Brit Nails) and Amelia (xAmeliax).

I've chosen to do a little different take on drip nails and it looks super cool!

I opted for a stripy look in classic Halloween colours and black drippy stripes. I have used only SpaRitual polishes in Positive Vibe, Solaris, Street Smart and White Light.

These polishes are available at Sparitual UK or SpaRitual US websites.

I've also prepared a video tutorial for you so you can easily recreate this manicure. It will look cool in any colour combination so you could do this for example in red, blue and white, red, white and gold or any other colours to make it themed :)

So that's all from me for today, have a happy Halloween if you celebrate it!
