Hi everyone! Today I have a mani I did a while ago after receiving my matte topcoat. Check it out!
I used a dark blue shimmer, which I believe was Nicole by OPI Listen to you Mom-ager, then did glitter tips using HITS Phenomena in Moonbow (I think). It's a dupe to Ozotic Elytra 528 which I also own, but hoard because it's been discontinued. They're both multichrome glitters, so cool! Then I topped the whole thing off with Essie Matte About You. The colours reminded me of a peacock.
Mmmm pretty!! It makes me sad seeing how long my nails were though, I just broke my index shovelling snow so now I have shorties again :(
That's all for now, have a great day!

I Got Distracted
Cult Nails I Got Distracted was from the semi-recent Coco Untamed collection. It was the polish that really caught my eye and I knew that eventually it would be mine! So when I decided to take advantage of the last Cult Nails sale and finally join the cult, I threw it into my cart with no hesitation.
Formula was amazing, I believe I needed only two coats. The base is a deep blackened teal with small hexes and lots of holo microglitter. It sparkles like crazy!
Also, I was messing with my camera and accidentally reset the white balance away from my custom setting and now my pictures aren't as bright as I like them, boo!

I am Bad at Nail Art!
So on Pinterest I came across this cool-looking fan brush nail art and thought I would give it a try. I should have known this was a bad idea, and doing them late at night when I was exhausted probably wasn't the best idea ever.
I think my main issue with this mani was the colour scheme, it kind of looks like the 80s were violently sick onto my nails. I think I may eventually try it again with more subdued hues. Oh wel, you live and you learn, right?

Soft White
Hi everyone! Sorry about my huge lull in posting. This is a mani I wore a while ago after receiving my Cirque order. I wanted to use the white glitter, Galinda, in a snow-inspired mani.
I started with a base of a random sheer white with shimmer I had in my stash. It's Kiss brand and I'm pretty sure that it was handed down to me from my aunts haha. The white was more sheer than I would have liked and needed four coats until I was happy. Luckily Galinda has great glitter coverage and I only needed two coats to get the look I wanted.
What do you think of my snowy mani? It has a lot of VNL so I think I might try it again whenever I have shorties next!
