NOTD: Funky Glitter Tips

Bonjour!

It's been a while since I've posted a NOTD (nail of the day) or anything related to nails really, but today I have a nail-art look for you guys! I was inspired by ThePoshPolish who did a funky french glitter manicure (you can have a look at her post here). I loved this idea so much that I wanted to give it a try. It's a great way to use glitter without it being too much and I love nail art that I can easily do on my right hand (using my non-dominant left hand).
Definitely check out her blog, she has gorgeous nails, posts really nice pictures and had great nail art ideas!

Here are my pictures:

I used China Glaze - Below Deck from the Anchors Away collection. This was limited edition but I'm sure you could find a dupe for it. It's very similar to OPI - Metro Chic, Essie - Merino Cool or Catrice - From Dusk To Dawn. The glitter I used is OPI - Show It And Glow It, from the Burlesque collection. 

I don't like it as much as I liked her combination. She used Essie - Master Plan and OPI - Mad As A Hatter (which I wish I owned :( !! ), but any combination you like is possible. 
Overall, I don't think this came out too bad for a first try.

Hope you like it too and until next time!

Nailart: Pokemon, gotta catch em all!

Sometimes when I'm bored and don't know what I'll put on my nails next I just ask a friend, boy or girl, doesn't matter. So that's what I did the other day. I asked Chris (who insisted on mentioning his name lol) and he said Pokemon. First I was like meh, I'm not really a Pokemon fan... But I figured it would be fun so I went ahead and painted some Pokemon on my nails. And these are pretty much the only ones I know lol (cause my little brother used to watch it quite often).

So here they are:

I used a bunch of different colours but mostly Catrice polishes. The background is a polish I made with MAC's Blue Brown pigment. I originally wanted to have a white background, but I had just painted my nails and the only white nail polish I have needs like 4 or 5 coats to get it opaque so I couldnt be bothered to do that first.

I actually had fun doing these. And I thought Pikachu was gonna be the easiest, but actually turned out to be my least favorite. Anyone got any request or ideas for what I should paint on them next?

Hope you enjoyed!
