Hallo

In the last Scraths magasin i got, there is a photo of two hands with blue glitter made by Mandy Rainford, and they look amazing, i know that it is proberly made in gel and i use L&P, but anybody have any idea how the big finger was made and is it cracked ice there is used on the nails ???

It looks like crushed shell to me hun. I guess with L&P you could do a thin layer and push the pieces in and go over with clear, or maybe use a dab of adhesive to hold em in place before going over with clear

haven't seen them but with crushed shell i would pick up my bead and place into the
crushed shell, then onto the nail (if that makes sense) then apply thin layer of clear l&p
over the top.hth

Thats great for a french style but these particular nails have a swirl of shell coming onto the nail bed from one side of the french. I'm sure you know what i mean lol. So hard to explain.

They were done with cracked ice and gel . I have a copy of NSI xmas booklet in with step by step of how to achieve this look had a go at christmas on myself and had a few clients try them too, It was very popular.
