NOTD: Purple and Yellow Ombré Nails


I decided to give the ombré nails another go, this time with much more contrasting colours, and I really LOVE how they turned out!

I even got a compliment from a waitress when I was out one evening, and she couldn't believe I had done them myself.



Products I used:
Base coat: Nails Inc in Harley Street
Yellow: Miss Guided (I think this was free in a magazine)
Purple: Bloom in Charlie
Top coat: Nails Inc in Kensington Caviar


Have you ever tried a nail art technique which turned out better after experimenting?
Which nail art to you love at the moment?

NOTD: Galaxy Nails


I'm so pleased with how this effect turned out.

I think every time I do them, they will look different, especially as the colour combinations you could use are endless.

It was difficult trying to photograph the nails with the glitter being apparent.


The glitter I used was a bit hit-and-miss, as usually the downfall of glitter nail varnish is that the glitter is to sparse, but that is exactly what you DO want from your glitter varnish here, to add a few twinkly stars on your nail. (has the word glitter lost all meaning to you too?)



The colours I used (from top left) are:
 Rimmel Lasting Finish in 080 Black Cab
Rimmel Brit Manicure in 430 Porcelain
Barry M Nail Paint in 309 Strawberry Ice Cream
Barry M Nail Paint in 304 Mint Green
Bloom Nail Polish in Charlie
Nails Inc (base coat) in Harley Street
Nails Inc Glitter (I think this was free with something and it doesn't have a name)
Nails Inc Graffiti in Portobello Place
Nails Inc (top coat) in Kensington Caviar
