I have yet to do a blog post about nails, which is crazyyy as my nail polish collection is rather large and still expanding! When someone came into work with sparkly, glittery green nails - I knew I had to have whatever she was wearing and once it was purchased, I knew I had to create a blog post about it!
I got the colour 'Turqouise' |
The colour range was pretty decent and I always love the GOSH counter's in Superdrug. The girl at work had 'Jade Green' and that looked a paler shade which was very nice, too. I think I may try the purple one soon, as that looks gorgeous for nights out!
How to apply:
Firstly, you apply any polish of your choice. You may choose to use a clear nail polish, whereas I chose a green colour similar to the glitter because then chipping will be less noticeable.
Then, before your polish dries, dip your finger into the pot (I have toilet paper at the ready in a bid to prevent making a mess everywhere!)
Lift out and the glitter will stick to only the part of your finger/nail where you painted. Gently wipe off the glitter from the rest of your finger - using a cotton bud made it so much easier..

This was the result...

Overall, I am happy with this nail glitter, but will only be in use for special occasions/nights out. I wouldn't say the staying power is very long so I wouldn't wear it for a week at sixth form etc..
In terms of getting it off, I assume it will be harder to get off than regular nail polish. Try soaking your nails in a polish remover that has acetone in. This may make your nails/hands dry, but you can always use a nice moisturizer (Soap and Glory Hand Food, mmm.)
