Allo polish Pals!
How are you today? Thank you
for all the lovely birthday messages! I had a really lovely
day, starting with my family in the morning and having my 4 year old
Niece there before she had to go to pre-school. I was incredibly
spoilt with lots of new nail polishes that I can't wait to try and Mr
Bravo and I had a nice meal out at a restaurant, then later on we
watched some of our favourite shows together. I promised
you some extreme nail art... Now. This is not something I
would wear, its entirely impractical and was a
real nuisance to do anything once it was on... But I had to try it!
I warned you it would be over the top! |
For my index and pinky finger I began
with two coats of Barry M's 'Gold Foil' and once dried I applied
Barry M's 'copacabana'
in a ruffian style which was not 'red enough' for my desired look so
I layered W7's 'Red Dazzle'. Once everything was dried I took a small
brush and applied some base coat and sprinkled some gold glitter on
top of Gold Foil. For my remaining nails I used a beauty glue to add
some trimmed down decorations for wrapping and made some little gift
tags.
As
I mentioned I wouldn't 'wear' this but it was a fun experiment. I
wish I had some small items to use but I did the best I could, I
think if you used really small pieces it could actually be doable.
What
do you think of this extreme and over the top manicure? Have you
tried a 3D Christmas manicure?
Have
a great day!
Love
Ithi
