Extra Fine Glitter Manicure

So when I am at Michael's Craft Store, I am constantly keeping my eyes open for cool manicure ideas. Especially in the sales bins! I found this extra fine glitter on sale for something like, $1.79 so I figured I would give it a try. I am not sure how I feel about this one but I think it could grow on me, with a little tweaking and technique work, of course!

The application process is the exact same as the DIY Tinsel Manicure Tutorial that I posted earlier. But I still put some simple directions on the photos for reference!
Enjoy:)






DIY Tinsel Glitter

So this one was.... interesting. Can't guarantee how much I will wear it but it is definitely fun! And EASY!



1. So you will need, tinsel glitter!
2. Here is my swatch, spoon, polish, and glitter. The spoon is to put the glitter on the end and then sprinkle without making a HUGE mess.



3. Load the end of the spoon up with the glitter. 
4 & 5. After putting the final color coat on or, I think this idea is better, a cheaper top coat sprinkle the glitter on the nail as desired. 



You will be lift with this nail that looks hairy almost! Just put a top coat on, preferably a thick one such as Seche Vite, and you're made in the shade. Might require two coats of top coats. 


Enjoy!

Corner Glitter Gradient

Love this idea of stacking glitter polish WHILE doing a gradient technique from the corner. Super simple!

Essie's Knockout Pout

Seriously am in love with this color. Now I know why everyone raves about Essie nail polish, this mani was done in 10 minutes. Includes 3 coats of color and one base coat and one top coat. Seriously what I needed today!
