pink glitter ombre nails...with a bow!


No ramblings today; just a photo that I pulled from a vault.

Base: OPI You Callin Me a Lyre?
Top: Various pink chunky glitter polish (China Glaze Bad Kitty & Sinful Pinky Glitter are both great).

I bought the bow on my ring finger from this etsy shop.

polka dot nails



Polka dots is my favorite pattern to have on my nails. Cute, whimsical, simple. I ♥ them.

glitter accent nails


Anyone who knows me is aware that I am a nail enthusiast - there's probably a more accurate, but less glamorous, term for what is actually a legit addiction to nail polish, but facing such realities is not one of my forte. 

I have tons of glitter polish I could have used, but my favorite way to do this is to dip my entire finger in a pot of glitter. It gives a chunky, thick pile that when finished with a top coat, looks way dynamic and dimensional. Like glitter in a snow globe. 





I start with a base coat, then apply gold nail polish - this is so that any bald spots won't be as noticeable.

The rest is pretty self-explanatory. Dip, tap & brush excess off. Top Coat.

The rest of my fingers are in Essie's A Crewed Interest, which is easily one of my favorite summer nail polishes :)
