First time putting shellac on myself
 
oohhh lovely, what colours are they and what colour gel polish is underneath?

I used Crystal Nails One Step 0 (clear) for top and base, and 66 (black) with all 4 of the Magpie too faced dusts. The pinkie was a pigment from elsewhere but I can't remember off the top of my head x
 
Hey where can I buy magpie glitter? ;)
Direct from their website magpiebeauty.
They have an Instagram page which you can access through their website which I find handy when deciding which colours to buy as they have lots of pics of the glitters on nails.

how do you get your stripes to stay put? I find they always lift after a few days. I can only get them to stay with brisa lite over shellac, but even that doesn't last that much. I'd love to hear what you do

I stick them down on the tacky layer of gel colour then seal in 2 topcoats,just need to make sure you cap the ends xx

Lovely! :)

Sarah R's got a video up about the new magpie holo pigments - after it's been rubbed in, she suggested wiping the nail with kitchen towel before top coating to dislodge any loose flecks that can cause graining...

Oh believe me, they've been rubbed and shined more than the Queen's cutlery I'm sure :D

I think perhaps I need an even finer powder...
 
Not as good as sarah R's but still love them!! X
