The trick to a perfect manicure that will last is a great base coat and top coat. I love Barry M, OPI and Models own nail varnishes, they are vibrant and the colours are always popping or standing out!
Step 1: Great Base Coat
I have recently invested in the best base coat ever (seriously). OPI Nail Envy is one of the best purchases I have ever made, it strengths your nails and I use it as a base coat before I apply any nail varnish. Constant use of acrylic nails damaged and left my nails thin and brittle. I have been using this for 3 weeks now and my nails are in great condition. Its pricey at £18 but defiantly worth it!
Step 2: Apply First Nail Colour
When using a bright neon colour I find its best to always use a white base coat. I used Barry M Matt White, it’s great and you only need one coat.
(ignore the fading henna…. any errors can be corrected at the end with a cotton bud)
Step 3: Apply two coats of Models Own Luis Lemon
This needs two coats to ensure the colour looks popping.
Step 4: Apply the Gold glitter Barry M Polish
I normally apply 2 coats of this because its so light and the more glitter the better!
Step 5: Apply A HIGH GLOSS top coat
Voila!
