MWHAHAHAHA STILL NOT CRAY I SWEAR, JUST ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT CHARMS

It's hardly a secret that I like sparkly things. Glitter? Awesome. Sparkly tiny charms? Also awesome. I've had so many new awesome ones I knew it was time to do Crazy Tacky Nails 2! I love that it's hard here to tell where my nails stop and the ring begins. Yay for charms! Let's take a closer look, shall we?

One of the hardest parts of these kinds of crazy nails is actually getting the charms off the nail. I've found that if you give it a nice, deep polish base you can use an orange stick to lever off the charms without hurting your nail. THIS IS RISKY THOUGH. I'm ok with the risk but if you're a proper person just use acetone. Anyway, I started with three coats of OPI My Vampire is Buff and just kinda slapped on some of the Color Club Halo Hues polishes. Then, starting with the biggest charms, I used nail blue to stick the charms on. BAM CRAY NAILS.

The Verdict: I love these so much, especially the bikes, cherries and lizards. My bf still hates them but too bad, they aren't for him! Yay tackiness!

Review: Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles is Accurately Named

It's amazing what you can find when you wander around at night. My favourite time to go shopping is ridiculously late and I'm extra happy when it pays off. I've been looking for Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles for a while now at that couldn't be more up my alley if it tried. I finally managed to find it in a Shoppers last night and it really does live up to its name. A Million Sparkles is a predominately blue glitter that has an amazing ability to look like a foil after a couple of coats. Combine that with gold, silver and pink bar glitter and you have a winner. It's seriously so sparkly I got distracted from what I was saying at lunch today. Application is decent but you really need four coats to get completely opaque coverage. That's ok, glitter dries fast. It's a little rough too but nothing Seche Vite can't fix. The Verdict: Yay glitter! If, like me, you like sparklies to the point where it's the biggest tag on y

I'm a Proper Mermaid This Time Beeeeaches

Ermerger guys, I don't have any glitter on me! Well, I do, just on my nails. I always have glitter on me. And cat fluff. It's funny how often my bf comes home with glitter in his beard. That means it's been there all day... Anyway, new nail vinyls mean something a bit different. I swear I'm not actually obsessed with mermaids, it just seems like it... Anyway, again, shall we?

Overlaid Red, Black and White Gradient Nails!

Ever since I did this mani recently I've been wanting to do a better version. The colours seemed like they would work together but it just didn't turn out how I wanted. I wanted to try again and decided to learn from my original mistakes. For example, make sure you use a super opaque creme polish on your top layer, don't bother with horizontal stripes and using thicker lines looks cool too.
