Glitter Fade Nails

 

OBSESSEDDDD! This is one of my favorite nail arts ever. I'd try to explain it, but you can just watch this video instead: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_QwFf5wvHM it's not mine..but it's pretty much exactly what I did using a few coats of a limited edition Maybelline metallic light purple color that was really sheer and an old OPI limited edition holiday glitter that has like micro-micro fine glitters. 

What's in my Nail Kit!

 Back Row, L to R: OPI Avoplex cuticle oil, Seche Natural clear coat (a kind of sucky matte top coat..I'll use it on my dad), Revlon Clear Fast Drying Top Coat, Sally Hansen Nail Nutrition, Nail Polish thinner from Sally's (use this on goopy/old nail polish), a cheap 3-sided nail buffer, a nail file, Vaseline (for water marbling), a makeup sponge (various uses like gradient nails), cotton ball (really just for removing polish), Q-tip for cleaning up edges. The pink thing was from Bath and Body Works a long time ago and has a cuticle trimmer, nail clippers, cuticle pusher, and a metal nail file that I never use. It also came with nail scissors but I never ever use those. I hate them.
