BLACK & WHITE GRADIENT NAILS & RAINBOW GLITTER

Hey guys, I'm sorry for not posting but I'm sure you all know what it's like when exams are so close! 
So now I've done quite a few gradients I felt like it was time to try the black and white gradient, which I think can be difficult to get a smooth transition. I applied one coat of OPI Alpine Snow and then used it with OPI Lady in Black for the gradient and (minus the bit of sponge on my middle finger) I'm really happy with it! I did decide to snazz it up a bit with one coat of Lippmann Happy Birthday on the accent nail. 




Ok, I hope to get another post in next week but there's no promises, until then remember to smile :D

MONOCHROME GLEQUIN NAILS

I'm so tired but I had to show you this awesome mani I did a little while ago !
I bought some black matte hex glitter from ebay about a year ago hoping to be able to use it for frankening but after a few weeks it lost it's colour (which annoyed me a little because the small pot was about £3.50) so they'd just been sitting in the draw for ages ! So the other day I decided to use them as glequins ! Unfortunately these are a bit smaller then the regular Born Pretty Store glequins which may be the reason it took me about 3 hours to do these 4 nails (I didn't do the thumb because  at that point I was going cross eyed lol !) 
Anyways, not really got anything else to say about these nails, they were very simple to do but very very time consuming ! The overall effect though is one of the best in my opinion, what do you think?
