Today's challenge is.....dun dun dun! Galaxy Nails! I was kind of ambivalent about this challenge since I've done Galaxy Nails several times now (not just for the blog!) and I end up using the same colors and pattern every time. This time I decided to use more blue and pink to brighten things up, and throw in a little something extra.
I started with a base of Ulta Rhinestone Rocker, a sparkly black that I picked up at Ulta a good year ago. Then I sponged on some swirls and random patterns with Sally Hansen White On. I added some highlights with Sally Hansen Brisk Blue and Twisted Pink, added a coat of Pure Ice Heartbreaker, then stamped using Mash-34 and Essie Nothing Else Metals. I finished off with some random white dots and a good coat of SV. I like the end result better than my usual dark galaxies.
At first I wasn't sure if I like this mani, but it grew on me fast. I wasn't pleased with the smearing of my sponging when I top coated, but I think that may have something to do wit my SV needing a good dose of restore. I do like the brighter colors as opposed to my usual dark blues and purples for galaxies, and the happy little planet makes me giggle!
What do you think of galaxy nails? Still love them or just about over them?

On a random note, I'm going to warn you guys that the shape of my nails may get odd in the coming weeks. I've decided I want more length now, which means alot less shaping. My nails grow pretty much diagonally, which means some less than straight edges for a bit. Sorry! :)
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
