Maximum bling on my nails

Okey, this started as a normal manicure. I was home alone yesterday evening, no kids and no man and I had decided to take it easy. And that means paint my nails and read.

So first I painted my nails with a red-brown polish, but halfway through I felt that it was totally wrong. It wasn´t what I felt for at all. So I took it off and picked up my silver foil Shine from Orly. I love this polish. It has a good formula, easy to paint with (even though I do think that the brush is too thin) but it needs three layers to cover well.

So, okey, three layers later I wanted to bling it up a bit, even though my nails were shiny with the silver foil. So I took out Disco ball sparkle from OPI. I bought this in London last year and it has small glitter and bigger holographic glitters in a clear base. So I painted three layers with that too because you don´t get so much glitter with each layer. Then I put on two layers of top coat and went to the sofa to read.

But then I started to think. Don't I have holographich stars somewhere? Wouldn't it be cool to cover the whole nail with them? I found them, small stars from the Swedish make up brand Face. They are actually ment for your face but works good on the nails.

So I put on another layer of Disco ball sparkle and pressed down star stars all over the nails. Then I covered it with one layer of Top coat from OPI and two layers of Seche vite to make sure that the stars stay in place.

I am really satisfied with the result. With all that clear polish it almost looks like the stars are floating around.

So, with base coat I now have about 13 layers of polish on my nails. And lots of stars and glitter. I am never gonna get it off, but hey, my nails do sparkle now!
