Hi everyone!

Today’s theme for the Neverending Pile Challenge is to use as many untried polishes in one mani as possible. I managed to use no less than ten untried polishes. That’s right, ten! I originally intended this for the Gold prompt, but I decided to move it up to today instead. I liked these roses I recently created so much that I knew I’d have to do something similar again soon. This time, I started with a base of vertical stripes: Using a nail art brush, I created vertical stripes in 9 different shades of blue, turquoise and green:

Essence Colour & go: L.O.L.

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear: Green with Envy

Tip Top Nail Chic: Hap-Pea

Sinful Colors: Mint Apple

Essence Colour & Go: Roller Coaster

Catrice: Mermaid My Day

Essence Colour & Go: Let’s Get Lost

Nail Addict by Tip Top: Night Life

Sinful Colors: Endless Blue I added a top coat and once it was dry, started working on the roses. I used a dotting tool to add the abstract rose shapes in Revolution Emerald. It’s not the most appropriate name for a gold polish, but it is beautiful! It’s a very dense microglitter polish and applied like this, creates a textured finish. I found that in person, this looked very elegant. I tend to avoid gold because it often clashes with my skin tone, but I’ll have to find ways to wear it more often! What do you think of this look? Only a few themes to go in the challenge! Take a look at some other nails for today at the link:
