Today is the day for The Lacquer Legion month 3, and the theme for this month was ‘Lucky’.
I sense your confusion on how this mani relates to that theme, we’ll let me explain. I don’t consider myself to be a lucky person in the sense that you would normally think of. I don’t get big breaks and I don’t have loadsa money, I don’t win things very often and my health is pretty poor, so in the normal sense, I’m not lucky. BUT, I ‘thank my lucky stars‘ everyday for what I do have and that’s where the galaxy nails came from, they are my lucky stars.
I’m fairly certain that I have never done galaxy nails before on the blog, although I have attempted them before and was never happy enough with those attempts to post them on the blog.
I grabbed a handful of polishes that I thought would go well together and started sponging away, some bits went a bit wrong but ultimately, I think it was a success.
I took my inspiration from the master of galaxy nails- Sammy from Nailasaurus 
. Sammy does a tutorial for Galaxy nails here and here is my all time favourite Galaxy nail art of hers.

Polishes Used: Barry M Black, Barry M Diamond Glitter, Barry M Matt White, OPI Dutch ‘Ya Just Love OPI, Barry M Prickly Pear Gelly, Barry M Cyan Blue, Rimmel Pulsating and Maybelline New York 461 Copper.
You may also notice that my nails are super short, I had some major breakages on both my thumbs, then the next day, I had even worse breaks on 3 of my nails on my left hand (photo hand) so decided to take them all down short for a while.
