Glitter Framed Nails

One of my favourite nail blogs to read is The Nailasaurus.

I just love how everything she does on her nails is always so neat, precise and clean looking!

Something that I have seen a lot over on The Nailasaurus recently is Hex Glitter or 'Glequins' as she has aptly named them.

When doing my nails for the metallic day of the 15 Day Nail Challenge, the glitter in Milani Jewel FX Gold reminded me of glequins and today when pondering what to do on my nails I came across it again and knew exactly what I wanted to do.

I loved them exactly how they were, but I had lots of ideas floating around my head and it wasn't enough.

So I took it a bit further.

I'm hooked.

The polishes I used were Boots 17 Lasting Fix in Royal Indigo and Milani Jewel FX Gold applied painstakingly slowly with an orange stick.

They remind me of little sheilds, what do you think?

Makeup Savvy 15 Day Nail Challenge - Day 11 - Metallic

Today's challenge has been the hardest for me.

Due to a lack of inspiration and time these will not be the most amazing metallic nails you will ever see but they are sparkly!

I think the best thing to do when your are suffering a lack of inspiration is to keep things simple.

So I chose a combination of GOSH Gold and Milani Jewel FX Gold glitter.

I love the Milani Jewel FX glitters so much, they kind of give a hammered metal effect in person but I'm not sure that came across too well in the photographs.

I really like this combo and can see myself wearing it more often especially for nights out.

It's just so sparkly!

Milani - Jewel FX Gold

Here I have the Milani Jewel FX Gold to show you.

This is pretty much exactly the same as the Silver I showed you the other day, it's just as much hard work but very worth it for the results you get.

I shan't bore you by repeating myself.

Let's get straight to the pictures!

Like the Silver I had to spend a lot of time poking and prodding the glitter into place with an orange stick but I just love the end result!
