May mani

 Can't get enough of sparkling up any colour with the born pretty glitter! 
Today I went for my new Crabtree & Evelyn polish - it is called Peony/Rose Delicat. And of course I love it ... It is a pale pink. I could wear pale pinks and whites everyday, always a safe option taking into account unprepared outfit days! 
I started off the day with just the polish on. Then I had a lecture break so obviously spent my time adding glitter. Can I just mention, I finished my first year of uni today... which means... more mani time! Anyway, I saw this design online ages ago and whoever had done it, had done it well! It's hard to get look right. I'm not completely loving my version. My nail shape is a little crazy recently maybe that contributes? Or it just did a bad job! 
I think I will be using this glitter again very soon.
Sorry for lack of posts - assignments due, exam season and all that!

Sparkling up with born pretty


 Glittered up with born pretty store sparkles today.

At first I was a little overwhelmed when I opened the tub and glitter was flying anywhere but with a little tweezer help it was all under control. And who doesn't like glitter?!
They were easy to separate and didn't stick together which I was initially worried about. 
The colour of them is so nice! They catch the light really pretty. I think that the colour of glitter that I tried  out would show up on any colour polish, even white would look pretty. 
I only needed to use a bit of clear polish to stick them on and then a top coat, I was pleased that no glue was needed. 

I must say, I have a lot of respect for the girls that  create really elaborate designs from glitter, because it does take some patience! Totally worth it though, it looks so effective. 
I can't wait to create new designs with the glitter. The pot comes with so much in it, so one will last you a long time. 

My application wasn't as precise as I wanted it to be but this had nothing to do with the product, it was because I am left handed but wanted a cool set of nails of my left hand! 
The base coat for this design is Jessica - Pink Explosion. Which really says it all, it is the ultimate neon barbie pink. 
I would recommend this glitter for anyone who is up for creating a totally unique designs of their own, there are endless ways to use it!
