Nail Graphix Glitters - best choices?

[Gilly T]

I have been reading threads about glitters for mixing with clear acrylic and I have purchased some from hobbycraft. They are ok but they are not very fine and some of them are a little 'flat' in colour when embedded in the acrylic and give disappointing results.

I have been looking at nail graphix for a while now and really want to try some. Although the pictures are not bad, I'm sure they don't truly do them justice, plus there are sooooooo many to choose from I am really struggling to make a decision on which colours to choose to start me off.

Obviously I want to get those that will be popular and I have searched threads and found that 'diamonds in the rough' is a popular one so that's the first one on my list. Other than this, I am totally stuck.

Can anyone help? What other colours would you recommend as being real show stopper that people may like to try???

Have you done a search for nail graphix plus had a look in the gallery there are some fab pics of nails done with them.
Our Fiona aka naturalnails sells them sure she can help you.

Hi Lell
Yes, as I said I have been looking at threads but just wanted people opinions on what is popular to customers. I know what I like but that's not necessarily a good thing

Fiona got in touch yesterday.. thanks

I always liked Diamonds in the rough.....the one Jac extreme used in her tutorial

Although, as Lellipop said, go to Fiona's website you will see them all and be spoiled for choice. Xanadu was another one I have used and quite liked, but I tend to use more dramatic colours these days!!!

Been looking at the website for a while now but just couldn't make any choices.. I have made a short selection for now of what are hopefully going to be popular on the run up to christmas.

Thanks for your advice

I have viva la diva, ruby slipper, boo berry ,vivacious violet and pixie dust, I want them all there so lush..x

 

[Gilly T]

I agree.. they are amazing aren't they?

I think my choices are ok then... Viva La Diva, Diamonds in the Rough, Like a Virgin, Millennium and Silvery Moon. Was going to order Ruby Slipper but has a gorgeous fine red glitter in my box and when I tried it out, it's practically identical..

Going to keep looking though and start a new list. I just can't resist them.

Yeah.. member of that group. They look scrummy don't they?

Can't wait to get them and have a play now, desperate for models though as I can't have a play on me. At college for 12 months doing Level 3 and 'not allowed'

Thanks everyone for your input... When I get them and have a play I'll post some pics :hug:
