A little while back I mentioned layering my lovely 'I Lily Love You' over a navy blue or a black, but I forgot to take a photo at the time. This morning with a little time to kill, I decided to repaint my nails because I played around with tape manicures last night and painted each one differently so they looked horrendous!
I used to wear black nail polish all the time but recently I've stayed away as it seems too dark and gothic looking for my skin tone. However, with a little glitter, it doesn't appear so scary!
2 coats of Revlon 'Black Lingerie' and 2 coats of OPI 'I Lily Love You' sealed with a top coat.
After taking the photo it seems that one of my nails has been broken slightly and I didn't do a great job at tidying up around my cuticles. Rubbish.
I ordered 1000 1mm AB crystal gems from eBay the other day for less than £1 I think and they came as I was painting my nails so of course I had to try them out! One thing that bugs me when I put crystals or gems on my nails is that when they're covered with top coat they seem to go duller and not so sparkly anymore. Does anyone have any tips or solutions?
I think I'm a reverted black nail polish fan and I'll definitely be having black nails more often now I know they look so good with a layering of glitter.
What do you think?
