Also, as a heads-up,this week is crunch time for me. I'm finally finished the research project I've been working on since November. This week we'll be presenting it in front of judges. It's pretty nerve-wracking and I have chronic dry mouth from practicing so much. This also means that I need short, conservative nails so there probably won't be much nail art next week! ): Please bare with me until then, I'll come back with some awesome manicures, I promise!
I started off a base colour of China Glaze Liquid Leather. Then I framed the accent nails with gemstones using topcoat and a toothpick. Finally I placed topcoat inside the frame and poured the micro beads onto it. I didn't seal the micro beads with another coat of topcoat.
That's all! Hope you liked this manicure that shall not be named! ;)

Thanks, Kayleigh! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Samantha! I get mine in a set from a local store called Phoenix Beauty Lounge (http://phoenixbeautylounge.com/) but I believe you can get them from Born Pretty as well. If anything, you can easily find a great variety from your local arts and crafts store! (:
