I am not usually a "girly girl" but recently I have been loving doing my nails!!
Now my nails never grow nicely, they are thin and weak and break very easily. I have now taken a liking to wearing false nails, which are probably not helping my natural nails to strengthen, but hey I am impatient.
I am not so much into the square style nails or really long ones either and I am not a fan of going to the salon when you can get the same effect at home. Cheapskate!
I have been reaching for mainly oval falsies but I thought this time I would try out the 'stiletto' style nails.
I suck my thumb when I am tired so I had to cut the one thumb down as it was stabbing the roof of my mouth. Pain in the arse.
I went for a nude base with faded glitter tips for this look as it goes with everything and I fancied experimenting. :)
For this look I used Elegant Touch 'Totally Bare' Stiletto false nails in 003 short.Barry M's 'Sunset Daylight Curing' nail paint which teamed with the topcoat creates a salon worthy gel sheen without the UV lamp. The daylight sets it. The base is shade is 509 'Like A Nude' and the topcoat is 512. For the tips I tried out Collection's 'long Lasting Nail Effects'in shade 31 'Touch of Glamour'.
This is the end result and I love it. With a little bit more practise I think it would look perfect.
Go on try it yourself, it's easy peasy.

P.S. I used my phone cam for these pics (I was being lazy and didn't use my DSLR)
