November Nail Art Challenge- Day 2: Polka Dots

Hello Ladies & Gents! Today I have the second installment of Erica's Nails & More 10-day challenge. This challenge definitely has my creative juice flowing! Today's polka dot mani was inspired by none other than the wonderful Sara from Chalkboard Nails. She did a beautiful blue and pink gradient dot mani, and I wanted to do something with the same effect, but not exactly the same.



So I took a little inspiration from her and used three different colors. I used China Glaze- Stone Cold, what's great about this challenge is it's also allowing me to use some untrieds;)) China Glaze- Trendsetter, and China Glaze- Snow Me White. Stone Cold actually gave me a bit of trouble, for the pictures is 3 coats. I found the first coat to be really streaky and uneven, but as the coats built up it was beautiful. A black matte with silver shimmer all throughout. This is also with no topcoat, I loved the effect it had.



So mine came out as more of random dots then a gradient, but this is easily one of my favorites.





What do you think of my polka dots? I can't wait to see the other challengers dotticures!

Until Next Time!
