Black Pointy Nails, Louboutin Themed

Happy Sunday Everyone! 

So this is just a super quick post! I said I would post a pic of my black pointy nails in my last post Matte vs Glossy nails here so here it is!

 

As they are so long, yes they are my real nails with no acrylic or anything added, I have painted the underneath of them red and it reminded me of the Louboutin shoes! I just wanted to share the look with you really so here it is!

 

First I applied a Base coat then I used 2 coats of Rimmel 60 second black followed my the Rimmel matte Effect Top coat and then finally using my super shiny Seche Vite top coat on the tips in a French Manicure style!

 

 

Here is a close up of the red 'sole' of my nails! I used Barry M 262 Bright red and I used 2 coats.

 

 

And here it is again! I hope you like it! I would recommend trying not to get to much red on your skin when you pain the underside as I did and it is quite sore!

 

All of these colours lasted a week (that's right I couldn't believe it either) without chipping so I would recommend all these nail varnishes. I do think it has a lot to do with the 3 layers of top coat though!

 

 

Have a great Sunday!

Matt Vs Gloss Nail Effects

Sorry I haven't posted for a while! If been so busy with life and getting a new job that I haven't really done much with my nails (or anything else) that's really been worth posting about! 

So since my silence I have been growing my nails nice and they have really been growing! they are the longest i remember them being for a long time! I think they have been growing to we'll thanks to all of the sun and its vitamins D I also think its due to the long pointy shape as normally when I break a nail I break the edge of the nail off but at the mement they don't have have edges as they are in a point not square! 

So here is my matte vs gloss nails! I saw something like this in a magazine I think it might have been an advert but I can't remember, it was black with looked so cool and I tried it out but was so busy I didn't get chance to post a pic! So ill do another post with then black later!

 So here I have used the models own scented grape and then after 2 coats I applied another 2 coats of the Rimmel matte top coat I appled this to the whole of my nail. Once that is completely dry I used my seche vite quick dry super gloss top coat and apply it to the tips only just like a French manicure.

I hope you like this matte vs gloss look! I find it really good with keeping your nail tips strong as well, most probably due to the thick layer of nail varnish you have on your nail! 

I should start posting a bit more regular again so keep an eye out for more posts! 

Have a great day and thanks for looking!
