Hi
there lovely readers!
Now
that Halloween is done & dusted for the year *sobs!*, before one
can get stuck in with full on festive nail art fun, we still have a
month to go where I can try to squeeze in as many autumnal vibed
manis as possible :) This time of year the burnt golds, bronzes &
burgundy's become especially lush & its definitely those tones I
reach for most often.
This
quick manicure I have for you today is what I actually wore for my
best friends wedding & went perfectly with the beautiful burgundy
bridesmaid gowns she kindly bestowed us with. Foils are so dreamy &
I do have a soft spot for the golden-y metallics
Here
we have an oldie but a goodie of mine, good old Models Own Champagne,
a truly lush pale golden foil that I always find myself coming back
to, I especially love wearing this on the tootsies as a pedi.
Another
fab thing about foils is they dry super fast! Great if you want to do
some nail art on top. This was two coats applied.
As
our bridesamids dresses were burgundy I wanted to incorporate some of
that warm tone into the mani so opted for a subtle glitter gradient
using Essence Time For Romance which is a lovely deep pink/maroon polish with
small and large hexagonal glitters within, a really pretty polish!
To
do the gradient, apply the polish to a piece of sponge, I use a bit
of make up sponge, & gently dab onto the tips, taking the
gradient down to about three quarters of the nail to give the slight
fading effect.
Do
this a few times on each nail until your happy & for a final
touch I like to add a bit of extra glitter onto the tips, here I've used a bit of Jordana Funky Gold Town.
Finish
with topcoat & that's it :) Thanks for reading, I hope you liked
the mani dolls, till next time!
Lotsa love to ya!
