Glittery Sky Nails!!

I just called them 'glittery sky nails' because they remind me of a scene/background we used to use for our nativity plays in primary school!!

This is my first attempt at a glitter kind of fade look. Mainly because I have no patience waiting for my nails to dry and because as much as I love glitter, I'm so lazy and just pick it off because it's so much effort to take off properly!

I decided I wanted one like a night sky so I opted for:

Barry M Silver Foil Effect - Hara Pixie - China Glaze Nova - OPI Russian Navy

First I painted my nails with Nail Envy by OPI - definitely worth the money!! - then I did two coats of Russian Navy.

Then I used the Barry M to paint a thin line along the very tip of my nails with barely any polish on the brush and then blurred the line a little , I didn't want it too visible but it was either that or use 50 coats of glitter to get my desired effect and as I said, I'm super impatient!

After that I kind of made a thick and lumpy line of the silver Hara glitter by holding the brush vertically and scraping it onto my nails ( if that makes sense?) and then flattened it out a little with the brush and dragged some of it towards the middle of my nail.

Then when that was dry, I did a reeeeally thin layer of the China Glaze over the whole of each nail because I love that it is super sparkly and it really catches the light!!

Hope you like them!! :)

Hello! Nails...

If you have ever seen Kath & Kim, you'll know the saying Hello! Nails......

Aaaanyways. I'm a little obsessed with nails.

I love having them different colours, whether they go with what I'm wearing or not, I won't lie though, they normally do, but it's not an intentional matching.

The last few weeks I have had........

This is OPI 'Rumple's Wiggin' & China Glaze Nova & a cute nail decal from ebay.

I've also been wearing Red Wine Barry M, but I just can't seem to take a remotely acceptable picture of it?!

I love doing my nails when I'm bored or going out....or staying in...it's just a time passer, and I like to play around with glitter and patterns and decals and things. here are a few of my faves:

From L-R top row:

Pixie by Hara - Matt White by Barry M - Shade 1 by MUA - Red Wine by Barry M - Lincoln Park After Dark by OPI - Nova by China Glaze - Rumple's Wiggin' by OPI - Lady In Black by OPI

So, those are some of my favourites at the minute and I have moustache decals but need wayyy more, I want some crosses too. My sister just ordered some white 3D bows, so I  might let her try them out on me when we get back from holiday

Any nail polishes or colours you can't live without??!
