Illamasqua 'Mehndi' Inspired Nails

Hello Readers,

Today, I have an inspired mani from Illamasqua. If you go here you can see the 'Mehndi Nails Kit' which features a how to video. I only did the half moon part using the dotting tool. I used NCLA 'Pick Me Up at Melrose Place' which is a bright purple and Illamasqua 'Load' which a creamy light yellow (yup, you read that right ha).

Now for the photos...
L-R: NCLA 'Pick Me Up At Melrose Place' and Illamasqua 'Load'
Excuse the orange skin, I was trying to show the purple better, it's warmer like in this image!
I did the opposite on the other hand ^_^
You can purchase NCLA polishes and amazing nail wraps here for $16.00 and Illamasqua polishes are $14.00 from Sephora. Of course, you can purchase Illamasqua direct from their website but it's a bit more expensive if you live in the U.S.
