Nat's friend Stacey called me back for
CND Shellac manicure again today - she had the
Red Baroness (see this
post) a little while back and more recently, a french manicure, and as you can see, her nails have really grown.
So this time she opted for something very different and chose to have
Shellac in
Blackpool. She really liked my manicure that I had with
Blackpool and the diamante lightening bolt (see this
post), so we updated it with some silver glitter tips and a lightning bolt in foil instead.
To create this look I prepped the nails as
CND recommend - cuticle tidy, file,
scrubfresh and then applied
Shellac base coat (curing for 10secs). I followed this with 2 coats of
Shellac in
Blackpool (curing for 120secs after each coat). To make the glitter tips I first mixed some
Gosh Nail Glitter in
Silver with
Shellac Zillionaire in a palette then painted a coat on each nail as a tip with a nail art brush and cured for 120secs. On the ring finger I used some silver striping foil to make the lightening bolt and just stuck this to the tacky layer of the
Blackpool. To finish it off, I added a coat of topcoat to each nail, cured for 120secs and then removed the residue with d-sperse. Voila!
What do you think? I love this alternative to a glitter fade.
