Isn't that the truth? Glitter always looks SO amazing on your nails, but getting it off is a proper nightmare! I find that it's much easier to remove if the glitter isn't in direct contact with your nail. Even over a basecoat it seems to hang on forever. For this mani I started with OPI Rally Pretty Pink. I've had it for awhile, ever since my husband spotted the Serena Williams set (with the red shatter which has always confused me) but I haven't actually gotten around to using it yet. After I got it on my nails, I LOVED the gold/pink duochrome effect. But I thought it needed more glitter (because you can never have enough, right?) so I added some Rosie Lee. The next day I thought I'd amp it up a bit by adding the gold. I got the idea for the gold "shreds" from another blog and I can't for the life of me remember where it was! I tried to look around but it turns out that a lot of people have done this type of mani so I don't feel AS bad. Still, if I find it I'll post a link :) Enjoy and thanks for following!!
Base is OPI Rally Pretty Pink. One coat of butterLONDON Rosie Lee over that. The gold shreds are Orly Luxe and one coat of butterLONDON West End Wonderland. Two coats of Seche Vite over all that!
