BEAUTY TIP OF THE DAY: removing glitter nail polish



As the blog name suggest im a sucker for anything sparkly or glittery and with all the summery weather I’ve rediscovered my love for glittery nails. Barry M has recently rebranded their glitter range and have started selling in the smaller superdrugs too, which is great for my nails but not so great for my student budget :(


HOWEVER..

Last weeks glittery nails - trust me they did look less ugly scruffy when first done!
If there is one tiny tiny crisitm I have with glittery nails is that they take FOREVER to come off and I find that the glitter acts almost like sandpaper puling against my nails which could only be bad for them. It was only until a friend saw me struggling to remove my Barry M Pink irredecence last week that she decided to tell me an amazing way of removing glitter nails in less than 5 mins!

You will need:
Nail polish remover
Cotton wool pads
 Tin foil
    
      1. Cut pads into quarters and soak in polish remover you will need one for each nail
            2. Place pads on nail and wrap around a strip of tin foil to hold in place

      3.Leave nail wrapped up for about 5 mins (3 would do but I use 5 just to be safe!)
4      
      4.  Wiggle each “nail package” and slide off
     
           5.  Your nails should now be clean and ready for a new coat of polish!

I know It does seem like a long process but trust me it’s so much easier and less frustrating than scrubbing at your nails for hours.
Once again comment any question and feedback you have – I love hearing from you all.
I’ve been having a pretty lazy day here today and am just about to get ready for a girly evening with my best friend.

Have a lovely day,
<3 Tiff xxxxx
