I did a little bit of simple nail art this weekend using the new Barry M glitter polishes!
What I used:
- Barry M Black
- Barry M Matt White
- Barry M Pink Silver Glitter
- Barry M Gold Glitter
- Barry M Aqua Glitter
- Barry M Magenta Glitter
- Barry M Silver Multi Glitter
- Barry M Barry M All-in-One Basecoat Topcoat & Nail Hardener
- Dotting Tool
This manicure was essentially two coats of Black, followed by dotting several large dots of Matt White on each nail (randomly – there was no particular pattern to this). I then placed 2-3 dots of each glitter in the centre of the white dots to create a gemstone-like effect, using a smaller dotting tool than that which I used for the white.
You can get dotting tools very cheaply on eBay – literally just search ‘Dotting Tool’ and you will find loads – they vary in delivery times and postage costs so it’s worth having a little look around. The seller I bought mine from took 4 days to post mine, so I can’t really recommend them!
I was thinking of doing some little tutorials for these kinds of nail art, as it’s a bit too wordy for me to explain well (you know me – waffley as ever!) and my new camera had HD video capability – is this something you’d be interested in?
