As promised, I've done some more nails with the ultra striking but painstaking glitter placement! These actually didn't take long at all to do and turned out so great!
Essentially, I put on one coat of Julep's Helena over base coated nails. I then brushed on Julep's Brooke for some shimmer. I then brushed a generous amount of Milani Glitters Teal onto a notecard and picked out the large teal glitters. Since the Milani glitter is suspended in clear lacquer I just picked up each teal glitter with a toothpick and quickly placed it on the nail in a starburst pattern. They have enough polish on them to stick, generally! I do love how these turned out! I'm thinking next about doing a mosaic design in this fashion on one nail. What do you think? Cool?

ReplyDeleteToothpicks work wonders for picking up the glitter and placing it on the nail :)
