Hello geeklings!!
I just thought I'd show you all my 1st attempt with pink glitter on the tips.
I am not a pro and only do nails on myself but I have recently been admiring the glitter tipped nails I have seen by all you geeks that have posted pics in the gallery.
Anyway, since I am not a pro, I have not got round to getting any glitter powder to try them for myself, and I had my best friends wedding to go to this weekend (which was great btw:lol: )
So I did a layer of pink transparent acrylic, painted just the tip with pink glitter nail varnish, and because I'm a nail biter, lengthened my nail bed with flawless, then went over the whole lot with the pink again. And here is my effort! ~(they are 3 days old now but looked even better newly done)
I know its not the way to do gliiter tips but I didnt have time to get glitter powder so I improvised :lol:
At first I thought the top layer wouldnt settle, stick,cure, etc on top of the varnish, but it did and held out quite well.:green:
I loved them and was really proud showing them off to everybody.. however, my fella didnt and said that it looked like I hadnt finished PAINTING THEM!!:irked:
Anyway, what does he know?? He doesnt have to wear them! LOL
What do you think for my 1st effort?? (soz about quality of photos, my camera is poo) :green:
