Morning!
Are you all surrounded by snow? I am, it's like living inside a snow globe! Completely going against the Christmassy/snowy theme, I have some seriously scary spiked nails to show you today.
I used dark red nails for this mani.
I used nail glue, a wax pencil and gold metal spikes.
Each nail on one hand has the spikes applied in different places. Each design is replicated on the nails for the other hand.
I tried picking these spikes up with my fingers, my tweezers and a wax pencil and the wax pencil works best. Flatten the tip of the pencil on a piece of paper, then push it onto the pointy part of the spike.
There's no topcoat on these nails.
They do stick out from the nail quite a lot!
Luckily the points are not too sharp.
I got these spikes in silver too, I'll try those on black nails soon!
I think next time I use these spikes, I'll do an accent nail COVERED in spikes! Scary but I'll still be able to put in my contact lenses :D
Get Nailed spikily! ;) (I know it looks like I spelt that wrong but it really is spikily and not spikeily like I first typed!)
P.S you have a couple of days to get in some entries to my giveaway! You can enter here, good luck!
Ooh where did you get these from?
ReplyDeleteGood old eBay! They had silver and gold in stock :-)
DeleteI injure my boyfriend enough with the sharp corners of my nails, I don't think he'd be impressed if I wore these lol. They're certainly striking though!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I can imagine the look of terror!
