Here’s what I’m currently sporting on my nails:
The pink color is Wet n Wild Tickled Pink and the green color is my Frankenpolish that I made here.
The gold glitter I used is from Sally Girl, available at Sally Beauty Supply. You know how sometimes glitter polish is in a really thick clear base and it seems like you can’t get the glitter coverage that you want on your nails without applying a bunch of really thick coats? Well, there’s a way around that.
For this look, I first waited until my pink and green polish was mostly dry. Then I brushed the gold glitter polish onto a makeup sponge like this:
Then I waited just a few seconds so that the clear base was mostly absorbed into the sponge, but still wet. Then I dabbed the sponge with the glitter directly onto my nail. This technique works like a charm! I learned this from jessface90 on youtube. Check out her tutorial on this.
I then applied the NYC You Matte Me Crazy top coat. I love how the glitter looks with the matte top coat! The glitter is still shiny, but in more of a frosted glass sort of way.
