Nails for the week - 25 Sep 2012
I finally have time for my nails!! I saw a similar design in a mag so I decided to try it on my own nails. This was a bit time consuming but I quite like the results although my lack of practice kinda of shows...anyway, this is what I used:
- Base coat followed by 2 coats of OPI's Donkeeyyy purple
- In a diagonal fashion, dot the top or bottom with alternate white and silver nail polish. You can use a dotting tool but I used Faceshop's Nail Dot pens. Do this ONLY when the purple coat is 90% dry
- With a toothpick or fine brush, swirl the white and silver nail polishes together. Let all the coats dry totally
- Choose a glittery nail polish (preferably clear, without any tinge of any other colour) and dab at preferred areas. I like to do it at the tips of the swirls. If you have larger glitter like stars or just round ones, this is a good design to use them with.
- Add in crystals. I used orange, light pink and dark pink crystals to finish the look
- End with generous amount of top coat to seal in the crystals and to smooth out any kinks from the swirls and glitter
Have fun!
