New Years Eve Glitter Nails

It is New Years Eve in two days which you probably already know and because of that I wanted to show an easy sparkly nail design that I think is perfect. This is something that anyone can do and I got my inspiration to it from this video I saw on FeelUnique's facebook page.

What I did is slightly different. Obviously I used different colours but I also never used a metallic polish on the very tip of the nail as she did in the video.

To get the gradient effect with the glitter I first used a silver glitter and applied it on the tip, then once that had dried and went in with one more layer and went a little further in on the nail and then I went a little further on the nail with a third layer. I wanted all this glitter to blend into my nail more so lastly I used a holographic glitter all over the nail.

Of course you can do this with any base colour and glitter as you would like. I did it with these colours because I wanted something that would look wintery, like when the sun hits the snow and makes it sparkle.

What do you think of these nails?

Gold Party Makeup

It is the 1st of December today for anyone who might have missed that and that means that Christmas parties and cozy Christmas nights with friends and family might start to happen. I had a Christmas night with a few friends last saturday and this is the makeup I wore. I didn't want something too dark with the eyeshadows and I didn't want much happening under the eyes either. I think this is a really wearable look that you could wear both day and night time and you can wear it with any colour lip. A red lip would make it much more Christmassy!

As you can see the colours are not that dark but the winged eyeliner makes the look a bit more dramatic. The eyeshadows are from the Too Faced Chocolate Bar and the Urban Decay Vice 2.

• 1, I used this colour all over the lid up till the eyebrow to make a nice base to work on and to set my primer which was the Too Faced Shadow Insurance.
• 2, I applied this matte brown colour in the crease with a fluffy blending brush.
• 3 & 4, I mixed there two gold shades and applied it on 2/3 of the lid.
• 5, Lastly I applied this dark gold/brown shade on the the outer part of the lid and then I blended everything out.

What do you think of this look? How do you like to do your makeup for parties?
