I was getting my fix of inspiration from Doe Deere’s ( the founder of Lime Crime cosmetics- a really cool American company) blog last Friday and discovered Lynnderella and her amazing range of handmade glitter nail varnishes! Google Lynnderella the glittering crowd and you’ll see what I’m on about. A little late to this party , I’m just glad I’m finally aware of this phenonemon. Her homemade polishes sell out in seconds as soon as they get released on her blog so you can’t even buy them till she bring out a new one.
Transfixed by all the different mixtures of glitter the polish looks like mini galaxy’s on the end of your fingers, very appropriate considering that galaxy mania has recently hit the shop. To impatient to wait I made pol have a go at doing mine on our lunch on Saturday. Eager to try out some more glitter combos I treated the girls to galaxy manicures today once they’d completed their chores.
If you wanna try this yourself ….
1. Paint your nails in a colour of your choice.
2. Mix together 3 of your favourite peaches glitters, plus 2 shades of chunkier craft glitter available from WH Smith.
3. Pour out a little clear nail varnish then sprinkle in your glitter mix to create a rough paste then apply 1 coat to your nails.
4. Finish with one coat of clear. Voila!
Ours were actually done using shellac so they are none chip, silky smooth and will probably last 2 weeks…. And guess what? If you fancy getting galactic we are offering appointments for them for £15 until Saturday! So if you fancy a treat for the weekend call the shop tomorrow on 0151 227 1669 , you can customise your glitter mix to create your very own galaxy as we have over 80 shades to choose from!!!!!
