JITNB meets glitter gradient tips

Hi~ :) I've returned to Uni for the semester now so boo, I probably won't have as much time as I want on nails any more. It's going to be a busy year ahead with lots of pracs in school settings (omg, how scary T__T) so nail polish choices may be more neutral and boring during that period. I'm going to go all out before that starts though :D.

In all honesty, I wasn't too happy with this mani at first, but it really grew on me after awhile. I applied two coats of OPI Jade is the new black and then used L.A. Colors Sparkling Diamonds to do the glitter gradient.

jade is the new black glitter tips

This was such a pain to remove though :P. I didn't really want to use the foil method to remove the glitter since the last time I did with a green polish underneath, my nails were stained terribly. So yeah, the removal process took quite some time.

Thanks for dropping by~
