Naturally, it was only a matter of time before I tried it out myself, so here I present you:

The little miracle product used to achieve this effect is the Shu Uemura nail enamel supplement mineral in glitter (miss Magpie Sparkles used the full sized bottle in glitter-PA885, unfortunately mine only says "glitter" on the back, but it was the only one I could find).

It's basically a clear nail polish, which combines micro-glitter particles with larger reflective flakes and it never fails to impress even after only one coat. Personally, I layer it over an opaque colour and...boom! Effortlessly sparkly, dramatic nails! Thanks Emma...! :)
Thats very pretty - I prefer black with some sparkle as opposed to just matte black!
ReplyDelete@Rowena: Yes, it does give it an extra something, for sure! :))
