Hello lovelies,

 

It's Movember again! I can't remember if I've done a moustache manicure last year but this year I'm prepared :) I love seeing all the funky moustache manicures all around the blogosphere so I wanted to add my bit. I've done just a classic black moustache accent nail in a 'skittlette' manicure.

For this manicure I have used CND VINYLUX Lilac Longing, Nubar White Polka Dot and OPI Alpine Snow.

 

For the moustache I have used black acrylic paint and nail art brush from the set below*. This set of brushes is from Tmart.com and it has proved to be good for intricate nail art designs. I have been using them for a while now and they are great value for money. You get four brushes for £2.56 (approx. $3.94) and the shipping is free.

 

I am using one brush in its original condition and one that I have cut few bristles off to make it even thinner.

I hope you liked my simplistic moustache skittlette manicure and see you soon ;)

 

Have a lovely day everyone! xoxo

Hello lovelies,

I had an idea of how to do DIY Speckled Nails in case you don't want to buy Illamasqua Speckled nail varnish or you just want different colours than they offer. You can create this look with any nail polish but I would recommend you to choose less pigmented ones.

For this look I have used Models Own Fruit Pastel Collection shades (all five), Nubar Black Polka Dot and Seche Vite topcat.

If you recreate this manicure please credit back to me. Thank you lovelies!

This is the original Illamasqua Speckled nail varnish in Mottle, picture is by AllYouDesire. I am showing it to you so you can compare the final finish because I don't own any Illamasqua Speckled polish yet. If you want the black glitter less visible as it is in the Illamasqua polish you can just add more nail polish over the glitter.

I've prepared a video tutorial for you as well, hope you like it!
