There was some spark going on and if you, like me love to shine, here’s the bit-by-bit:

oh! oh! Not so fast. First, here’s what you’ll need:

  •  Love & Beauty clear/silver (at Forever 21)
  •  Royal blue matte finish polish (I used lapis lazuli by Brazilian Risque, but this O.P.I matte finish is a great replacement)

Here’s how:

Step 1: royal blue all the way on all nails and wait for it to dry

Step 2:  apply a little “sparkle” on the very tip of the chosen sparkly nail

Step 3: continue on, applying more of the silver polish onto the rest of the nail. Make sure not to apply any near the cuticles. Don’t worry about uniformity: the less even, the better.

Step 4: after letting it sit for a few minutes, strike on another layer of silver polish (only to the nail tip), let it try off and you’re all set to shine!
