Blobbicure gone holo with two of the new ILNP springies

It's almost spring!!! Except just for everyone else in the world but me in sad, cold, miserable Canada... but new nail polish collections titles 'spring collection' keep reminding me I live in the worst climate ever. DAMN YOU CANADIAN WINTER THAT LASTS HALF THE YEAR, DAMN YOU.

Okay back to nails - this mani is my first ever 'blobbicure' as they're termed, as it was this week's prompt for a weekly nail art challenge I co-host on Instagram along with lovely ladies Kristin of Lacquerstyle and Tracey of @missbellatracey. I actually re-did this one a couple times cause I wasn't putting the polish on thick enough, but with mistakes comes improvement, amirite?!

I used two new holo babies from I Love Nail Polish's new spring 2015 collection and I'm in LOVE!

 
VIDEO TUTORIAL AT THE END OF THE POST!


I had a hard time choosing which holos I wanted to use from ILNP's new spring 2015 collection (there's 10!) but I settled on a simple purple holo combo. I will have macro swatches of the collection up eventually when I crawl out of my swatching grave!

The video should be pretty self-explanatory - how easy, right?!

Polishes used:
- ILNP 'Poetry' (magenta-purple holo)
- ILNP 'Happily ever after' (lavender holo with silver flakies)


*Polishes were provided by ILNP for my impartial review.

  3. Hi Cristine, I am going to have to try a blobbicure. They remind me of turtle shells, or animal prints of some kind. And they'd look lovely in so many color combos! Thanks for the inspiration you've given me today! =)

  4. These nails are just awesome! I'm so mad ILNP's spring collection won't be available until 3/24! I ordered music box, champagne blush, and bikini bottoms to hold me over. You bloggers are solo lucky.
