Orange Nails

Hello! Today I've chosen to use a nail varnish that I've already shown on my blog but I love the colour!


And I also added some orange glitter to just one of the nails!

White nails!



Using some white nail varnish and white glitter I'm pleased with how my nails came out!

The glitter I received from eBay was quite thick so I was unsure on whether it would look good or not..


This is the finish result!

Fairy dust sparkle nails


Did my nails today using my favourite brand - Ciate! I've chosen to use two bottles.



These shades are shown below - one consists of just glitter to go over the top of the pink nail varnish


I use a small funnel to get rid of any unnecessary glitter that hasn't stuck to the nail. This means when applying the glitter, I do it over a cup so that all the glitter can be poured back into the bottle using the funnel!


This is the final result!

Current favourite nail varnish - Barry M


Just going to show you some pictures of my favourite nail varnish at the moment!



It's really glittery and sparkles in the sun, the colour is a neutral pink shade that will go with most outfits so there's no need to worry about it clashing with anything you wear!


Only downside is it's quite rough on the nails, but it looks really pretty! So who cares!?

Zigzag glitter nails

Above shows the three nail varnishes I've used to create my zigzag glitter nails. 

Starting with Ciate Sugar plum I applied one layer to my nails leaving the finger nail next to my little finger without any.

Then I applied a second coat of sugar plum and waited awhile for the nails to dry and then continued to put a third coat. 


Then using ciate confetti nail varnish I applied this to the remaining fingernail.


Above shows the nail varnish Ciate Confetti which I used on one single nail. 


Above shows what the nail varnish looks after one layer.

You will need to keep re applying the confetti nail varnish as it is quite thin and i like to have a thick glitter effect.


Above shows the fingernail with two coats of glitter and I wasn't happy about how it looked so continued to apply the nail varnish until I had my desired nail.


Above now shows my nails with the final coat of glitter nail varnish, this took a while to do as I needed to make sure the glitter was even and consistent. 


I then applied my sticker zigzags to my nail pressing them down to make sure none of the varnish bleeds onto other parts of the nail. 


Using white Barry M paint I then painted over the top of the nail stickers. Make sure to use a thin coat.


Once painted I took the stickers off the nail instantly! This will prevent them getting stuck and a none messy look.


Above shows that the nails aren't perfect and it is messy. But after a good nail varnish remover and cotton bud you can touch them up. If the nails have bled and aren't perfect, go over the nails using your ordinary nail varnish brush. 


And that's it!!
