We have a new set of prompts for the challenge Your Nail Art group on Facebook! Unfortunately, I am at a complete loss for them. I am not into sci-fi except for Star Trek and there, I am a total Trekkie (by the way, can I say how happy it makes me that the word “Trekkie” is part of the Dragon Dictate library??). I hope I end up with a stroke of inspiration but I think I may have to sit out this month. But, the idea for today’s prompt came to me at 10 PM so who knows!

Initially, I stretched the prompt to space TV shows, namely Star Trek, when I realized there were plenty of Star Trek movies! And, this would be the perfect time to use my Fab Ur Nails plate…which I may have only bought because of the command badge…anyways…

I hope you like it!

 

Star Trek Badge | The Rite of AgingI started with Wet n Wild Black Creme as my base.

On my index and pinky nails I applied Zoya Pixie Dust Imogen.

On my middle and ring nails I applied a generous coat of Glitter Gal Galaxy Holo Top Coat. (heh, how fitting!) *Just a note on this polish — it dries semi-matte but seriously shimmers with top coat)

I stamped with Color Club On the Rocks.

I am on a glitter kick. When I decided to re-visit my glitters I loved them all (I guess there was a reason I bought them to begin with! – There was speculation I only purchased them because how they looked in the bottle!)

For the quirky prompt I decided to mix a textured polish with bright glitter, neon polish and stamping. Why not go whole hog? This would be the perfect time to do so!

During the “buy 3, recieve 3 mystery polishes” Zoya promotion I bought my first PixieDust! I’m not the biggest fan of these type of textured polishes but this one was so intriguing I had to have it! I heard a rumor that Zoya was discontinuing the PixieDust collection so I wanted to get hold of it before it was gone for good. I mean, to be a good nail art blogger, I had to, right? Hehehe!

I hope you like it!

 

Stamping and Glitter Nail Art | The Rite of AgingI started with American Apparel Neon Green as my base.

I applied a generous coat of Serum No. 5 Happy Special Day! One of my favorite polishes of all time, I am really sad I haven’t used it in so long!

I stamped with a Pueen Cosmetics plate from the Love Elements collection and Milani Black Swift.

I used Zoya PixieDust Imogen for the accent.
