I have a very limited data plan on my phone which means it's mostly offline. I try to connect once a day for a 5 minute scan through IG and to upload a pic if I have one ready. I love looking at everyones photos but often the connection is so poor I can't get anything to load and my upload fails. All which means I ended up with a backlog of photos to share. I can connect at home with wifi but I dump my phone when I walk in the door so it usually doesn't occur to me.<br />
This morning's sorting reminded me of all the photos I didn't share so I connected my poor neglected phone and posted a bunch of pics to IG. Apologies to anyone who follows me on IG or my personal Facebook, it was spam city for a while there, and to complete the abuse I'm going to share the same pics here in one big disorganised blog post, along with some other long lost pics which may have made it to IG but not the blog yet. Most of these I'd planned to have a dedicated post for, with multiple shots and a review of the polishes used but there's just too many for that now.<br />
Here we go, in no particular order ...<br />

OK so they aren't actually stamping plates. They're some etching plates I made at school, waaaay back in the 80s, but I dug them out and tried them for stamping. They work surprisingly well but the images are way too big to make sense on my nails.Polished Peripheralshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10492667890909191369noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6126234320213184682.post-22141417720227911082014-08-25T20:33:00.000+10:002014-08-25T20:34:08.657+10:00piCture pOlish Blog Fest 2014 featuring Nail Vinyls It's that time of year again. piCture pOlish's Blog Fest is here.

This year is a little different, we are featuring Nail Vinyls. piCture pOlish have just released <span class="userContent">a special 4 pack exclusive of 'NailVinyls' from the US, available <a href="http://picturepolish.com.au/index.php?route=product/product&path=85&product_id=463" target="_blank">here</a>. This year is</span> also an insta fest so you can check out more pics on instagram using #picturepolish and you can follow my IG <a href="http://instagram.com/reblr" target="_blank">@reblr</a>. There is also two parts to this blog fest. The first is a straight forward swatch and review of a supplied polish, no nail art, and the second task is to create a nail art project using the supplied Nail Vinyls and polish.<br />
So first up here's piCture pOlish <a href="http://picturepolish.com.au/midnite-meteor" target="_blank">Midnite Meteor</a>.<br />

Midnite Meteor is a collaboration shade with DoBeauting! It's a dusty navy blue with scattered bijou holo and coloured flecks. The holo and flecks of colour are subtle. In the sun holo is most visible, in shade it's the coloured flecks that catch the eye with little flashes of magenta and blue, but it's the formula that is the stand out feature of this polish. It's a one coat wonder! Smooth and completely opaque in just one normal coat and I love a good one coat polish.<br />

See that's just one coat. It's shiny too. I applied top coat to just two of those nails and couldn't see the difference. Wow, one coat without the need for top coat, yep I can use that. Even more impressive is that underneath I was wearing some nail art with black and white stamping. I applied a coat of Midnite Meteor to just one nail to test it and I was so impressed with the way it covered the nail art I had been about to soak off (gel polish) that I went ahead and did a full manicure and took photos. I felt so lazy but it was the perfect quick and easy solution that I wore for another 3 days. Easy to apply too, not to thick and no risk of cuticle flooding. I didn't need to do any clean up. <br />
It's going to be great for nail art and I intend to test it for stamping.<br />

Hot Lips and Swagger look great together, quite summery, not at all like our current rainy weather in Sydney. I found Hot Lips to be a two coater and for Swagger I needed three coats for an even, opaque finish. Which made the next task a bit tricky.<br />
We were instructed to create nail art featuring the Nail Vinyls using the supplied two colours and NO studs, stamping, decals, stickers, tape, acrylic paints or any other nail art, ie gradients and dots. We could use black and white polish if needed but these colours and the vinyls were to be the focus. My first inspiration was to do a gradient under the Vinyls. I think these colours would make a nice gradient but it wasn't an option so I'll save that idea for another day.<br />
Nail Vinyls are basically vinyl stickers, used like striping or masking tape to stencil designs with polish. Easier to handle than striping tape and stronger than masking tape, with precut shapes to make stencil style nail art easier. You stick the vinyls on your nails, paint over with a coat of polish then peel them off while the polish is still wet, leaving behind your (hopefully) crisp clean shapes.<br />

Ideally you need a nice opaque one coat colour to paint over the vinyls and the problem I had was both the supplied polishes needed more than on coat. Multiple coats or too thick a coat caused the vinyls to 'melt' on the edges and leave a mess of glue behind.<br />

This is over a bare nail and you can see the glue left behind because I applied the polish too thick. I tried many different combinations and designs and I kept having sticky problems. In the end I found pressing the vinyls on my skin a few times to reduce the stickiness first helped and I had to settle for the base colour showing through each top colour because I just couldn't get them opaque in one coat.<br />

You can see the blue Swagger under Hot lips has turned the neon pink into more of a fucshia colour on my index and ring fingers and on my middle and little fingers where I used Hot Lips as a base colour it has given Swagger more of a lilacy tint. The top colours are also patchy on each so the base is showing through unevenly and I still had ragged edges from applying the top colour too thickly. To finish off the mess my top coat made the colour streak over the chevrons, even though the polish was completely dry before I top coated. I wasn't happy but this was the best result I had. I tried things like using white as a base coat which made the colours 'pop' nicely but still didn't get around the need for more than one coat. A polish like Midnite Meteor would have been perfect for this but I could only used Swagger, Hot Lips and black & white.<br />
So I slept on it. The next day I added another layer of chevrons using a rich one coat black I made myself.<br />

On my middle finger I left the vinyls on and top coated them, I like that nail best, it's kind of 3D. <br />

Bonus, Hot Lips glows under UV lights :)<br />
Hot Lips and Swagger are both beautiful colours and make great base colours for this kind of nail art but for Nail Vinyls a one coat colour would give much neater results. I'm going to use my remaining mini chevrons with Midnite Meteor.<br />

I've been wanting to try the Moyou Sci-fi 05 plate for a while now. I wanted a classic gold on green circuit board look with a twist. So I used Serum No5 Twilight Sparks as the base colour, it glows in the dark :) I was so keen to stamp I didn't get any photos of Twilight Sparks first and I haven't tried a shot in the dark yet but it glows green.<br />

The stamping polish is a Mundo de Uñas gold. Unfortunately with the gold shimmer in the base colour the stamping didn't stand out as much as I wanted.<br />

Twilight Sparks dries to a slightly rough matte finish but a top coat really brings out the shimmer. <br />

Polished Peripheralshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10492667890909191369noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6126234320213184682.post-91770264601353188522014-05-05T00:06:00.003+10:002014-05-05T00:06:51.348+10:00Sunday photo spam.I am itching to do something creative on my nails tonight but I can't so I'm trying to satisfy my creative urges by going back through my photos from the last few months and finally blogging them. Most of these I've already shared on Instagram or Facebook but I didn't think they were good enough for a full blog post of their own so now they get to be part of a series of photo spam posts. <br />
I've been nursing a bad break for a while. My middle fingernail broke, way down on my nail bed, and I've been patching it until I could grow it out to cut off. Which means my middle nail has been mismatched, often shorter than the others and often thick and wide depending on how well I patched it with silk and gel. Each time I removed my polish I had to re-repair my nail so I am finally relieved it has grown out. It was also a bit painful for a while there. Unfortunately my nails still don't look good. I've cut my other nails down as short as I can but they still aren't as short as my middle (no)nail. I've painted my nails twice tonight and just taken it off each time because it just looks wrong :( Add to that a badly torn cuticle and burnt knuckles and I'm feeling quite sorry for myself and my poor naked, stained, mismatched nubs.<br />
Cue the photo therapy... <br />

An excuse for those of us lucky enough to have Picture Polish Collab shades, to show them off again (not that I don't anyway). Which means it's time for more <a href="https://www.picturepolish.com.au/index.php?route=product/product&path=72&product_id=233" target="_blank">Picture Polish Serenity</a> photo spam :)<br />

It actually looks better in these photos than it is. Still it's cool that it's almost life size.<br />

I can't help it, this polish will always make me think of flowers, in particular lavender. If you missed my explanation of the inspiration behind the colour have a look <a href="http://www.polishedperipherals.com/2013/11/picture-polish-serenity-by-polished.html" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

My painting skills aren't good enough to do them by hand and at this time of year "<span class="st">ain't nobody got time for that"!<br />

So here's <a href="http://www.alannarenee.com/golden-snitch/" target="_blank">Alanna Renee Golden Snitch</a>, with some extra gold.

The launch of my <a href="https://www.picturepolish.com.au/collaboration-shades" target="_blank">piCture pOlish</a> collaboration shade! So be warned this post is going to be long and picture intense.<br />

I have had to keep this secret for so long. Way back in 2012 I was one of the lucky bloggers who received two piCture pOlish shades to swatch and review for Blogfest 2012 (<a href="http://www.polishedperipherals.com/2012/07/picture-polish-blogfest-2012.html" target="_blank">here</a> and 2013 <a href="http://www.polishedperipherals.com/2013/07/picture-polish-blog-fest-2013.html" target="_blank">here</a>). Even luckier I was then selected as one of the bloggers to work with piCture pOlish to produce a shade of my own, my dream colour with my name on it!<br />
Now coming up with my dream colour was interesting. I love green but Cathy from More Nail Polish had already beaten me to the perfect green with <a href="http://www.morenailpolish.com/2012/07/picture-polish-kryptonite-by-more-nail.html" target="_blank">piCture pOlish Kryptonite</a>. The other thing I love is lavender.<br />

I love the plant, the scent, the colour and it's my surname. It's a tradition in our family for the women to carry on the Lavender name. When I was 12 my great uncle came to visit from England and researched the Australian connections to the Lavender family. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavender_Bay,_New_South_Wales" target="_blank">Lavender Bay</a> in Sydney is named after an ancestor, George Lavender who was a boatswain on the Charlotte in the first fleet and later boatswain of the convict hulk Phoenix which was moored in the bay.<br />

My great uncle showed me the family tree and in short I learned about my family and officially changed my surname to Lavender-Roberts to keep the name going. <br />
When I got married I kept the name and we had a floral theme for our wedding with lots of lavender.<br />

Serenity takes me to a peaceful place :) I could stare at this colour all day. When I look at it I can take a deep breath and drift away. Strangely enough I get images of gum trees and tropical waters as well as fields of lavender so that's a bonus.<br />

Serenity is a shimmery blue green with a subtle lavender haze and just enough purple glitter to enhance the lavender without dominating. It's one of those polishes that changes with every angle. In some lights (like flash) it looks like a turquoise foil and in other light it becomes a grey geen. The lavender haze is more obvious with indirect light and impossible to photograph. I've taken lots of photos to try and show all the colour changes.<br />

I've worn this a lot since I got the sample bottle. Mostly it's a two coater but if you don't let it dry enough between coats it can drag so I have three coats in some shots because I hurried my painting.<br />

Like other piCture pOlishes I've worn it goes on smooth and even, and I've worn this for a week at a time without chipping (with base and top coat). There's no sign of staining and it comes off as easily as any polish without glitter.<br />

When I first saw Serenity I knew I'd have to try it with piCture pOlish Wisteria. I used piCture pOlish Violet Femme for the lines. I wasn't happy with my line work so I tried painting some lavender next.<br />

I wanted to stamp some lavender but the closest match I could find to a bunch of lavender was some Thanksgiving wheat and the design was too small for my nails. So I had to paint my flowers by hand, roughly.<br />

We're waiting until we can all sit down together tonight to see it (which means I'm avoiding online spoilers today).

<a href="http://missashleigh.com.au/shop/kryptonite/" target="_blank">Miss Ashleigh Kryptonite</a> is a thermal scattered holo polish. It's dark blue based green when cold and lime green when hot. Two greens in one :)<br />

On long nails this means you get a cool french effect as the tips are cooler. The holo is subtle and sparkles in the sun without greying the green colour. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is 3 coats and there's just a bit of nail showing through on my ring finger where my nail is stained (yes I have just one stained nail now). I did have some little lumps of undissolved thermal pigment that made it onto my nails and some darker streaks of unmixed colour. I used an orange stick to remove the lumps and painted over the darker streaks. You can see some light green spots in the bottle in some of my photos (like the first one), those are the undissolved thermal pigment.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Then because I can stamp now I decided to try an all over stamping design in green, and because Miss Ashleigh Kryptonite reminds me of <a href="http://www.polishedperipherals.com/2012/07/picture-polish-blogfest-2012.html" target="_blank">Picture Polish Kryptonite</a> (mostly just for the name), I used <a href="https://www.picturepolish.com.au/" target="_blank">Picture Polish </a>Shamrock for my stamping.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Shamrock stamped well. The idea was that the design would vanish into the dark green when cold but at this time of year it isn't cold enough for a full dark green effect. I had to use ice to get my tips to stay cold long enough for these photos.<br />

Cue photo spam... sun, shade and flash photos. The intensity of the green changes a lot depending on the light.<br />

A day to raise awareness of premature birth with a wave of purple around the world. People have been wearing purple and public buildings have been lit up in purple with the theme of #LightItUpPurple Have a look at the facebook page https://www.facebook.com/WorldPrematurityDay for some great photos of the participants, well lit buildings and some inspiring stories. <span class="userContent">Prematurity is the leading cause of infant death. Both my boys were premature. Alex was born at 26wks and Ben was born at 35wks. There's a lot of medical and emotional stress that comes with a premature birth and we had our fair share of it but both boys are now happy and healthy.<br />
So here's how I wore purple with some nail art to light it up purple. <br />

<span class="userContent">The glow is so intense the bottle was lighting things up. Sorry for the blurry shot but it's hard to hold still for a long exposure. I love Radio Active Woman, I just want to try it over everything now. Because it's clear it doesn't effect the polish underneath and just adds that special effect at night.</span><br />

<span class="userContent">I stamped a skyline using Ulta3 Black Satin and some accent nail fireworks using Color Club Eternal Beauty. It's supposed to look like the sky is lit up in purple and with the help of Radio Active Woman it does light up. Special thanks to the wonderful Tara from <a href="http://www.lokislacquer.com/" target="_blank">Loki's Lacquer</a>, I can now stamp! I was holding my scrapper (licence, credit card etc) wrong and pressing too hard which was removing too much polish so the squishy stamper wouldn't pick up anything. Tara showed me how to swish my credit card across the plate and let it flex. Amazing the difference! Swish and stamp and swish and stamp and swish and stamp :)</span><br />

It was my youngest son's orientation day at school. He starts kindergarten next year so this month he gets 3 short (too short) visits to the school. I'm not sure which of us was more excited about today. It's been something we've been looking forward to for a while now and he keeps asking when he can go to school. He was convinced he could go as soon as he turned 5 and can't understand why he has to wait until the new school year. So this morning I dropped him off (no tears from either of us) and as it was Remembrance Day today I came home to paint poppies on my nails before picking him up again (an hour and a half later). It was all over too quickly but I think he enjoyed it and my nails had time to dry :)<br />

I have other glow in the dark polishes that are clear but I used this one because it has a slightly cloudy finish from the GITD pigment. I wanted my layers to be progressively foggier but still visible. Like a field of poppies in the hazy morning light.<br />

I didn't pay much attention to how many layers of Go With The Glow I used but it glows really well! There's a base layer then one coat between each colour of flowers and each layer of foliage then a final coat on top.Polished Peripheralshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10492667890909191369noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6126234320213184682.post-12703877372262724052013-11-07T22:36:00.000+11:002013-11-23T20:10:42.419+11:00Whoop!

This one's inspired by Dr Zoidberg so I added some Zoidberg art with googly eyes.<br />

It's a white base with pink and red glitters so the overall effect is pink. Previously I've worn this over a white base polish but this time I wanted the pink of my nails (currently red stained) to show through a bit. <br />

This is 4 coats of <span style="color: white;"><span style="color: black;">Whoop and I much prefer it like this. Going without undies give it a more delicate, almost porcelain, translucent look, and the layers of glitter show through like a jelly sandwhich. </span></span> I wish I hadn't added the Zoidberg face though, it spoils the lovely soft look. <br />

<span style="color: white;"><span style="color: black;"></span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="color: black;">I don't think this one is available any more but there's a heap of other beautiful polishes available at </span></span><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: black;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/Lokislacquer" target="_blank">Loki's Lacquer</a> on Etsy. Tara is a real wizard when it comes to mixing pigment and glitter and she does custom polishes too. You can follow <a href="https://www.facebook.com/LokisLacquer?" target="_blank">Loki's Lacquer</a> on Facebook for news</span></span><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: black;"> and updates.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="color: black;">For Zoidberg's face I used Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Frutti Petutie. I have a few of these Sally Hansens. I bought them, (when they were on sale), to use as undies. They are (mostly) opaque in 1 or 2 coats and I thought they'd be good for nail art too. Problem is they smudge like crazy when I paint over them with anything. Just one stroke of top coat and the brush is stained with whichever </span></span><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: black;">Complete Salon Manicure colour I'm painting over. The same happens when painting over them with glitter toppers or any special effect polish. Probably the same with solid colours too but I haven't had a need to cover them like that. Which makes the </span></span><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="color: black;">Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure polishes</span></span> pretty useless as undies. They contaminate any polish that touches them. They are supposed to be 'complete', base, colour and top coat in one, so you're not supposed to need a top coat if you're wearing them on their own. For this nail art I had to cover Zoidberg with a coat of PVA peel off base coat before I could add the details and seal it with top coat. The PVA doesn't have any effect on the Sally Hansen. Of course I forgot that trick and ended up having to redo Zoidberg after the first attempt at top coating :(</span></span><br />

The whole collection is stunning and each time I wear one of them I decide it's my favourite so right now, Poltergeist Puddle is my fav :) <br />

A bit like trying to choose a favourite child though. It's definately worth grabbing the whole collection, or as much as you can considering one of the colours has sold out.<br />

Then I did this. Lynnderella Witch Cauldron was it? dabbed over the tips with Lynnderella Heart of Stone on my accent nail.<br />

How perfect are these colours together? Heart of Stone looks really rough but it's actually perfectly smooth with a thick layer of top coat. I pulled out my old bottle of Lynnderella Glitter Tamer for this. It still doesn't seem any different to any of the other thick top coats I have but I thought I'd give it another go. It doesn't shrink like Seche Vite and hasn't gone goopy which is a plus.<br />
Poltergeist Puddle is available from <a href="http://www.pretty-serious.com/" target="_blank">Pretty Serious Cosmetics</a> and I get my Lynnderellas from <a href="http://glitterconnect.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">Glitter Connect</a><br />
