[Nail Art] Wintery Blue & Silver Glitter



I will be the first to admit that this manicure hardly qualifies as nail art!

It's just Illamasqua- Noble updated; I layered Essie- Set In Stones over it, and then added a layer of Essie- Matte About You on top of that.



But...layering counts as nail art...right?  Right?

I love the look of mattified glitters, and this is my favorite nail look in quite a while.  It's so blingy, but has that cool Winter feel at the same time.

Another thing I enjoy is that matte topcoats are also generally quick-dry, so it's easy to change up your nail look and then run out of the house without worrying about dinging it up!

    Looks great! I didn't know I'm doing nail art all the time, but in that case I'd say layering totally counts ;-)

    It counts when your layering option is AWESOMESAUCE. Like this one is! :D
