Lacquer up: The Self Made Nail Artists.

From LuciesLocket
It's not a secret that I love nail polish. I talk about it all the time. I take pride in painting my nails weekly and can often be found spamming my instagram feed with images of said handiwork. 

I am not the only one either. I found out quite recently that the sales of nail polish outstripped sales of lipstick, the first cosmetic for an instant pick me up. 

I know why I am buying three nail polishes a month, and one lipstick a month; but why is everyone else?

Lacquer Up: Glitter Fade

So, spring has sprung and I fancy some neon glitter nails. 
I love a good glitter fade. They are so much easier to do than an ombré and are just as beautiful. I thought, as it has AGES since my last Lacquer up  I thought I would go for this easy tutorial to get your ready for spring. 

First, after filing and prepping your nails ready for your polish apply your base coat. 
I have used the Save The Nail 'Bridge The Ridge' filling base coat. Apply two coats and allow to dry fully before continuing.
