Pigment nails


Hello lovelies!

Today I am sharing one of my favourite nail art looks.. pigment nails! 
I first saw these on Bec from Nail Gun XS, and fell in love.  She wrote a tutorial for Lacquerheads of Oz about it, so I followed that.




I used a black nail polish as a base, then pink, purple and gold eyeshadow pigments. These are so easy to do, and actually quite fun!
Have you ever done this style of nail art?

Till next time!

Happy Mums Day!

Hope all the Mums out there had a great day!  Mine was nice and quiet, lunch with my Mum then just relaxing at home. I received some lovely pressies from my 2 guys...

I of course had to have some special nails for Mothers day, so I decided to try a look I have been wanting to do for a while..  pigment nails!  I first saw these on Bec from Nail Gun XS, and fell in love.  She actually just wrote a tutorial for Lacquerheads of Oz about it, so I followed that.  I am so so happy with how they look!

*pigments a go!*

I added a few photos so you could get the idea of how they look.  I used mainly pigment eyeshadows from Pretty Serious Cosmetics, and a random one from Essence.    The only thing I did different from the tutorial was put my first pigment colour straight onto my wet nail polish, instead of a top coat.  Next time also, I will hold the brush closer to my nail, I think I held it too far away which is why it's more scattered.  
I love this look so much, I went right onto Ebay and bought a bunch of different coloured pigment eyeshadows.  ;)

Have you tried pigment nails yet?
