A Failed Glitter Ombre.. NOTD #4

We've just about gotten far enough away from December for glitter nails to start becoming acceptable again without people thinking you've been left in the party season, so i seized this opportunity and tried my hand at my favourite glitter ombre! It didnt work as well as normal, maybe i need more practice.




This is such a simple and easy manicure to do and suits any event. I wore this for a few days at college and had nothing but compliments. The dark nails really help when you do art as well as it hides all of the pain splatters and leaves you with what looks like a perfect looking manicure even at the end of the day!

I started this by using Sally Hansens Hard As Nails as a basecoat, followed by two layers of Barry M's Nail Polish in Black. I then used a limited edition pink glitter by Barry M (similar) and applied it in an ombre effect. I learned how to do this from various tutorials on youtube and i think it has such a lovely effect that everyone can learn to do! 

Have you tried glitter ombre nails before? What did you think of them and how did they turn out?
