New years eve nails

Here's my design for New Year's Eve. The base is my favorite polish, it's Aztec by Accessorize. Then I used a gold striper from Andrea Fullerton to do flicks in circles for fireworks. Over that I used Barry M white nail art pen to write 2014 then went over the white with a blue striper from Andrea Fullerton. Then just to add a bit more sparkle I placed a few gems randomly over my nails to finish off!

Purple Glitter and Rhinestones

These nails are just frosted plum by gosh with a bit of extra glitter and sparkle! All I did was paint my nails and whilst they were still wet placed some chunky glitter on the base. Then added a blob of clear nail varnish over the glitter to secure the rhinestones. I then sealed it all in with my topcoat! Very simple and easy to do, but very pretty and sparkly!

Gosh Frosted Plum Reveiw

Gosh's Frosted Nail Laquer in Frosted Plum is an absolutely beautiful colour. It's a dark glittery purple polish with hints of gold in it. This polish is textured so it dries rough, it also dries to a matte finish and even after applying a topcoat is still quite matte. The opacity of this polish is very good, I found I only needed to apply one coat. If I hold it up to the light the tips go a tiny bit see though, but it'd be easily fixed with a second coat if it really bothered you, but I don't think it's needed.
Overall I am in love with this polish, it's so easy to work with and looks amazing. The only thing that would put me off wearing it is that I think these types of colours look best plain with no design on them, however I have done a simple design using this polish with glitter and rhinestones, which I will upload soon.

Purple and pearls

For this design I painted my nails a lilac color then sprinkled some pink glitter in the bottom corner of my nail whilst the polish was still wet. Then I took some different sized pearls and using clear polish (you could also use glue if you want them to last longer) randomly attached them to my nails over the glitter. Finally I secured the whole design with a top coat!

You might also notice that my nails have gone short :( lots of them had broken or split so I decided it was time for them to go. Hopefully they won't take too long to grow back!
