From The Vault: Falling Star

This one was going to be a NOTD, but it chipped on the corners, and at the moment my nails are bare. Yes, bare. And they're going to stay that way overnight =) I'm just going to moisturize my cuticles and give them the love they deserve.
Anyway, as you can probably guess by looking at the name, this manicure was inspired by Barielle's Falling Star. But instead of small copper glitter, I went full throttle with bling. I applied 2 coats of Claire's slate blue polish, then a coat of China Glaze Spellbound on top. I imagined that the glitter would be very sparse, but it came out to be pretty dense. But I like the look. It looks sparklier in real life, an odd mixture of blue, orange and silver, which is very pretty from a distance! Trust me, this one looked much better IRL than in the pictures and I definitely recommend you trying out this combo =)




Bu günkü manikürüm bu olacaktı, fakat kenarlardan biraz soyuldu ve bu yüzden şimdi tırnaklarımda oje yok. Benim için alışıldık birşey değil bu =) Sadece nemlendirici sürüp bırakacağım bu gece, biraz kendine gelsin tırnaklarım.
Barielle'in Falling Star isimli ojesinden esinlendim. Claire's soluk mavi ojenin üzerine China Glaze Spellbound sürdüm. Ben Spellbound'un simlerinin tırnakta biraz daha seyrek duracağını hesaplamıştım, ama aksine çok yoğun oldu. Ama özellikle uzaktan turuncu, gümüş ve mavi çok değişik ve güzel duruyor. Hatta normalde resimlerde durduğundan daha güzel gözüküyor. Bu kombinasyonu denemenizi tavsiye ederim =)
