Neon Graffiti Nails

Capturing neon's have got to be one of the hardest things in the world, okay its not brain surgery, but its up there. This is no where near how bright it is in real life. I mean I could halt a plane with these nails :P

Here is my take on a graffiti style stamping. 

Its nowhere near as crisp or lovely as I would want and the clean up was a pain in the proverbial's BUT its so bright I just love it!

I first used a white base, if you do not use a white base the neon's will be streaky.

Products Used 

Orly Glowstick 

China Glaze Kiwi Cool-Ada

BarryM White 

Konad Black. 

Cheeky Musical Nails Jumbo Plate

Seche Vite Top coat 

To do the gradient I first did a base of BarryM white, then applied two coats of GlowStick. 

I used a makeup sponge to then blend in the green. 

So what do you think of neon nail polish? Love it or hate it?

Kleancolor Matt Holo Glitter

 

 

 

 2x Coats of Catch Me by Kleancolor

3xCoats of Chunky Holo Teal by Kleancolor

1xCoat of Matte Top Coat by Orly

 

I know the stamping is smudged but i really wanted to show this design

I love the look of matte glitter and this blue is truly beautiful in real life.

This glitter is lovely, it really catches the light and shows off the all the different colours.

 

 

here's some pictures without the stamping

 

Also i love the lid of the Orly Matte topcoat as its all rubbery and so easy to grip. Nice :)

The only problem i have is that Kleancolor polishes never last on me which is such a shame as they are so beautiful. Has anyone had the same issue?

It literally peels off in big bits :(
