So the other day was my madres 50th birthday party (pics coming soon) and of course i had to look the part so i decided to do my nails. I wanted something simple and quick to do and i recently saw a design on the Nailside blog (which i LOVE) so here is my attempt @ it. Here is the link to the one on Nailside.
Things i used:
cellotape
scissors
1 stripper nail art pen
2 nail polishes
Nail tek base ridge filling base coat (Excellent)
OPI Top coat
How i did it: (sorry there are no pics).
1. Base coat each nail
2. Paint base colour (Brown) on each nail and leave to dry
3. cut cellotape strips and stick on nails diagonally
4. pain other side with second nail polish (pink) and leave to dry
5. paint line along the diagonal divide using nail stripper or nail art pen and leave to dry
6. Top coat and youre DONE!
I recently came across this new nail polish craze that gives the nails a new and fun look, once you apply a top coat of the specific polish over your nails it creates a sort of crackled effect. Well i decided to try this out since i looooveeeeeee painting my nails ahhh!
I purchased Barry M's Instant Nail effects black magic 10ml from amazon, link below:

This product was brilliant! It worked within seconds of applying it and gave the crackled effect. I also came across other brands of the 'crackle' nail polishes such as W7, so i will be giving you a review and comparison on that.
Overall definitely a great product, check out my YouTube channel for the video of me applying this nail polish. It shows the real time it takes to work.
Below are some pics of the final result after adding my flare to my nails.
I used Sally Hansens 'Hotties Wear Pink' Xtreme Wear nail polish with i LOVE, this brand dries so quickly i really recommend it! After applying this i then used the Barry M nail effects and then finished it off with some silver glittery polish by Saffron.
And below is the final result!
I hope you can see the dazzle effect underneath the glitter polish, anyways hope ya like it peeps.!
