Dark Swirly Nails.

I haven't done anything too fancy this week. Just some simple stamping. The reason for this is I didn't want to cover up too much of my base colour, which is gorgeous!!

The base colour I used is one of my latest additions and my very first Picture Polish. It's called Solar Flare, I love it! Without going into too much detail, it's a orangey, browny, purpley, redish colour that shifts between these colours in different lights and at different angles. It also has some fine glitter in it. I'm pretty sure Solar Flare and the others in the limited addition collection are designed to be layered over black because they are kind of sheer on their own.

Anyway, I really love this colour, I almost just left it the way it was with no stamping. After saying how amazing it is, unfortunately I wasn't able to capture the colour in all it's glory :( There wasn't enough sun and I'm not sure my camera could pick it up anyway :(

Here's what I did:

I painted all of my nails black as the base for Solar Flare, but left my ring finger black. Then I stamped all of the nails that had Solar Flare on them with black using the swirly pattern from my MoYou London Fairytale Plate 2. Then for my ring finger, I stamped with Solar Flare using the same design. I kind of wish I had done it the same as the others. I don't know what's going on with my pinky, it just seems to point that way...weird :)

Since I couldn't capture it properly, I tried to get it at different angles to show the different colours.

This picture shows the more purpley side.

This one shows the orangey brown side.

I really wanted to be able to show you how beautiful this colour really is, but since I can't, other people have done a better job at taking pictures of this colour, so just Google it :)
