Matte Monster Nails

 

Ive been so busy this week ive had no time to do any nails :(

 

My eldest son started playgroup this week and i thought i would use that as inspiration for these nails

 

Monster Nails for my little monster

And for a change I used a matt topcoat.

 

 

 

Barry M white x2 coats

Cheeky Plate CH32 (from the summer 2012 range)

Stamping colours are

Thumb:17-Jitterbug

Index:China Glaze-City Siren

Middle:Kleancolor-Barbie Pink

Ring:Kleancolor-Plum

Pinky:Kleancolor-Neon Aqua

 

Orly Matte topcoat

The colours arnt as bright as I hoped they would be, i really should invest in some actual coloured stamping polishes.

 

Hope you enjoy these cheeky nails, for my little man who isnt so little anymore.

Galaxy Nails. Far out!

 

 
Galaxy nails are just so beautiful,they catch the light and make me keep looking at them.

This is Barry m Black x2 for the base colour

Kleancolor Barbie Pink and Pink Fairy for the glitter

China Glaze Sexy in The City for the blue

and Calvin Klein Cabernet for splodges of an oil slick tint.

 

I hand painted some stars and dots with Barry M Foil silver but to be honest i wish i hadn't, why didn't i just use a stamping plate??? it would have looked so much neater. My silly brain didn't even think of this until hours later, DUH!!

 

So when i do it again,which i will, ill use stamping plates instead to do the stars.

 

The application of this is really simple.

Base colour

use a cosmetic sponge to apply the different colours or glitters,sometimes needing multiple layers

then topcoat!

TaDa! :)

 

I find that up close they don't look as good but at hands length they are out of this world! Sorry i couldn't resist it :P

 

Have you ever done galaxy nails? How about sending me a link to yours so i can be nosey :)
