If you told me five years ago that I would be into nail art I would have laughed in your face and said, "Taaaa-ckyy."  But here I am. Totally into it when executed correctly and worn with the right look.  Here's a little peek at one of my latest attempts at fun/ky nails:

Inspired by these nails I saw on Pinterest, I decided to try my own take on them.You can see what polishes I used and basically how I did it in the pictures above.

result:  meh, i didn't love them

I think they would have been better with glitter on top, like the inspiration nails had, but I have an aversion to glitter because it's so freakin hard to remove! 

What do you think? Do you use glitter polish, and if so what is the secret to getting it off?
