NOTD: Glitter Nails


I love these glitter nails, perfect for any Christmas parties.
They are really simple to do.




Follow the steps:
1) Since I was using blue glitter I decided to use blue nail polish under incase any gaps peeked through.
So I applied 1 coat Essence's 'Groovy' and let it dry.

2)Then apply the same polish to one of the nails you had let dry and don't let this coat dry, pour your glitter over the wet nail. (Make sure you do this over a piece of paper so it catches the leftover glitter so you can put it back in the bottle. I used glitter from the craft store, don't use expensive stuff like the MAC glitters as it'll just be a waste when the glitter from craft stores are perfectly fine. You can even mix different colours into a jar and create your own customized colour.) Then repeat this on all the other nails, make sure as to only do one nail at a time of the polish will dry. Make sure to tap off any excess glitter.

3)Once they have dried apply a clear top coat, either pour some out of the bottle onto paper and clean the brush after you've painted all the nails or if you don't want to pour it out clean off the brush every time before dipping it back into the bottle so you don't get glitter in the polish.
I then just applied another coat of the clear polish after the other one had dried.

And you're done!!
Have fun!

Nails of the day: Comic Nails


Super fun nails to do!
Pardon how messy they are, I was in a rush but still wanted something different to the usual.
My hands are super dry because it's getting a lot colder so the skin around my nails are less than perfect.
(Does anyone know a really good hand moisturiser for winter?)

More pics and what I used after the jump...

Barry M Haul

I bought a little Barry M haul recently, I'm pretty much always amazed at Barry M products, they're such a cheap brand and they are so pigmented it's ridiculous!

Barry M Dazzle Dusts:
My favorites are Petrol Black and Chocolate.
*If you would like to see swatches, please leave a comment, and I'd be happy to oblige!*

More Barry M items after the jump...


Most Wanted


Essence Nail Polish
in No.66 'Most Wanted'
-from the 'multi dimension xxxl shine' range.

This is what it looks like with a clear base coat, then 2 coats of Most Wanted and then a clear top coat.
I really like it, it's a brown/purple shade.
Very fitting colour for winter!
