The Polished Bookworms: October 2015

 Purchased By Me / Gift / Giveaway Prize 

Hey guys, sorry for the huge delay with this post. I have not finished October's book just yet, but decided to do a mani anyways. I was really enjoying it, but got kind of busy and I stopped reading. October's read was All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. I took inspiration from the jewel that was talked about, the Sea of Flames, it was described as a beautiful blue stone with a hint of red at its center.

I started off with a white base to make the colors pop, and did a circular gradient with blue and red polishes over that. Once I was done with the gradient, I sponged on a red glitter jelly polish over the red, and a blue glitter jelly polish over some of the blue. I'm so happy that I did because it ended up looking so much more beautiful. It also gives it more depth. Last thing to do was top coat of course. I love how this came out, and I hope it was worth the wait guys.
