Nail graphix are good!

When using glitter, do you realise you should cap with clear l&p or gel before filing? Just thought i'd mention it in case that was the problem

you should check out the selection of glitters at lechat, they have a massive selection at great prices

www.lechatnails.com

young nails have some nice ones too.

Hi Honey

The Glitters I use are from Young Nails - Throughout England and the UK they also have some fab offers just now any 10 colours for £45 or £5 each pot.

I have used a few glitters in the past and found these to be very twinkly if used in the one scoop of glitter to 3 scoops of clear powder then cap them with the clear and the stay true to the colour you require.

Hope this has been of some help to you.

I actually get a lot of my glitters from craft stores and the "dollar store" (1$ per bag).
with UV gel, there is no bleeding problem of colour, as with L&P, so I don't have to be fussy about my brand of glitter. I get micro glitters from nail art distributors as micro glitters are harder to find.
I use the colours straight or mix different ones together for different effects.

Lots of fun.
