Glitter French using Nail Graphix Glitter

1. Follow your usual prep routine, then either apply a clear tip and blend or fit
sculpting form.

2. If using tip apply a thin layer of Nail Graphix colour of your choice in this case it is "Diamonds in the Rough" to create your smile line in zone 1, remembering to use a wetter than normal mix ratio. Follow with a thin coat of clear if necessary.

If using a form apply a very thin coat of clear to zone one, when cured remove form and apply a very thin layer of Nail Graphix this time I have used "Intergalactica" follow this with another thin coat of clear if necessary.

3. Apply perfect pink to zones 2 and 3, then shape and refine nails to the style of your choice.

4. Finally buff to a high shine with a glosser or apply a coat of finishing gloss and finish with a drop of solar oil massaged into the cuticles.

Thanks Jac thats a massive help I wasn't to sure about how to apply it with a form as I only use tips so I have no excuse now for not trying forms

If you keep a separate brush and even separate dappen dish for glitters - do all the glitters then come back and use a separate brush and separate monomer and do the rest - this is probably the real sure fire way of avoiding stray glitter.
