Crystal Half-moons & Illamasqua Pink Raindrops for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

*PR sample

Hello lovelies,

 

I've decided to post another pink manicure to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For this simple look I've used Illamasqua Pink Raindrops and Swarovski Crystals from Stephen Arnold e-shop.* I've used topcoat and orange wood stick to put the crystals on the nails and I've arranged them in half-circular pattern (half-moon).

 

When I was done wearing the nail design I wanted to keep the crystals. By not using a nail glue I could remove them and clean them with acetone and subsequently re-use them for another manicure. I wouldn't recommend doing that with the 'cheapo' plastic rhinestones :)

I really liked this look, probably because I have wedding thoughts in my head and these would look very pretty as wedding nails :p

 

Here's an official guide on how to use these Swarovski crystals in nail art. I've enjoyed using them because they are just so much prettier than the plastic rhinestones and you can expect another design soon!
