31DC: Red Nails

Last night quite late I decided to join in on the 31 day challenge that is happening this month. That gave me one night turn around to get this mani out (I normally like to give myself a little more time so that I can choose not to use a design if I don't think it's up to scratch.) The first challenge is red so here is my red nail art:

I decided to play around a bit with colour, texture and patterns. 

I used She walks in beauty for the glitter accent nail with the pattern drawn with my Barry M black nail art pen. The Zoya is just the right colour to match Rose Bower although it takes forever to dry because you can't use top coat. I much prefer the texture of this to the OPI liquid sands because it is much less pronounced and annoys me less, it's a shame that Zoyas are so expensive in the UK.

Overall I quite like this. Check back tomorrow to see my orange mani.
