Good afternoon my fellow lacquered lovers! I hope you are all having a lovely Wednesday. It's rainy and dreary and humid in NYC today so I thought doing a black and white manicure would match the grey city on a day like this. I have to warn you going into this that you will see my left hand, which doesn't happen very often, so please don't judge my poor broken ring finger nail on that hand! Now, without further ado, on to the polish!
Above: The glitters used in the manicure
There were a LOT of bubbles on this manicure and I'm not sure if it was from the glitter application or the fact that I probably need a new bottle of Seche Vite but sorry for the bubbles! ANYWAY, For this manicure I started off by painting my left hand (minus the pointer finger) with Essie Blanc and my right hand (minus the pointer finger) with Finger Paints Black Expressionism. The pointer fingers on each hand were done with the opposite color. Then, I used All That Glitters Spotty Dottie Dark on the white polished nails and Spotty Dottie Light on the black polished nails and voila! You have this manicure! I absolutely loved how it came out but beware, these glitters are a bit of a pain to apply. Definitely worth the final result in my opinion but I had to wrestle with getting the glitter out for quite awhile!
All That Glitters nail polish is sold on Etsy HERE for $8 a bottle. I'm loving black and white glitters lately, both together and separate, and am really glad I have both of these! Sure you have to fight with it a bit but the final result is pretty awesome!
