Imagination In Colour UK Nail Polish Blog
Today I have an ‘ultra-modern’ inspired creation as part of the ‘Three Nail Challenge‘, devised by the lovely ladies at Mateji Ustvarjata. To be honest I don’t really know what qualifies as ultra-modern but colour blocking and abstract art came to mind for some reason, so that’s what happened!

Revlon French Mix All The Rage
Day 6 of the 30 Days of Untrieds Challenge! Day 6 is violet. For my birthday last month my Andy kindly took me shopping in Reading. Of course nail polish was at the top of my list. We went into Boots (which was pretty huge and amazing!) and I found an entire counter dedicated to Revlon nail polish – heaven! I saw the Revlon French Mix polishes and just had to buy one… I chose All The Rage, a green and a purple polish. I’ve always loved how bright green and purple look together so this one was perfect.
The basic idea of the French Mix polishes is that there are two polishes (each contained in a small bottle at either end of the stick) which can be used together to create an accent nail, and more importantly, an ‘alternative French Manicure’. This pushed all the right buttons for me and despite the rather hefty price tag (£7.99) and the rather small bottles I had to buy it, if only to see whether the idea was effective.
Revlon Radiant
Day 5 of the 30 Days of Untrieds Challenge and I’ve finally caught back up! Day 5 is blue, so here I have a pretty blue glitter which has been around for a long time in the US, a lesser amount of time in the UK: it initially came out a few months back with the 80th Anniversary line but was mostly stocked only in large Boots stores, but it’s now hitting Superdrug shelves and some of the smaller Boots shops too.

Day 4 of the 30 Days of Untrieds Nail Challenge is ‘green’. So I have a green-blue duochrome for you! I am cheating a little – I took these photos on holiday a few weeks back (as you can probably tell from the length of my nails) but I hope you don’t mind!
Yellow Flowers Nail Art
Here is day 3 of the 30 Days of Untrieds Challenge (late, still! … I am trying to get back on track!) and day 3 is yellow! Yellow is not a colour I usually wear as it tends to look a little insipid on my skin tone but I really like this shade of yellow, and kept it on for 2 days in the end. It’s kind of an egg-yolky colour, which is my favourite yellow shade.
