Mix & Match Mani!

Hi everyone!

This mani was actually done for halloween, I was really pleased with this but the more I look at it the more I tell myself off for going over the top with the gold beads!! Oh well we live and learn eh?
This mani was created by using 2 coats of black as a base (over a clear base coat) Then 2 fingers were topped with a chunky hex glitter polish from Primark. 2 nails were made matte using Rimmels Pro Matte Finish mattifying topcoat, i then used a dotting tool and the original black to make the polkadots. The middle finger was finished off using the gold beads. Everything was topped off with 2 coats of Sally Hansens advanced hard as nails.
It's not the neatest but I was in a rush to get out and I knew the gold beads wouldn't last the night (I'm a picker)


Unil next time.....

The Frenchies....

I love a good french manicure! They're so versatile, colour options are endless and they can be as simple or complex as you like.
The first mani was done using Sally Hansens white tip and Rimmel glitterball, I don't tend to use guides for normal tips just free hand.
The second dotty one was done by using a clear base coat and applying sellotape at a slant once the basecoat had dried, I then used a red polish to make the slanted tip and painted a line across using Barry M's red glitter. I then used a black polish and a dotting tool to finish.
Simples.....!
