You might've seen the Instagram {over in the right side of the blog} of my holiday manicure. I layered OPI San Tan-tonio with two glitters. I'm not sure of the names but they were something like Crown Me Already and Spark de Triomphe. It looked like this:
Well I loved the look until it came to removal. If you've tried taking off a glitter polish you now how the cotton gets all stuck in the glitter and it is a pain! I saw a solution on Pinterest and tried it out. It was amazing!
Ingredients:
Nail polish remover
2 cotton swabs {I prefer the round}
Aluminum foil
1. Cut the swabs into 10 pieces, 5 per swab
2. Cut the foil into 10 pieces
3. Dip a swab in polish remover, stick it on top of the nail and wrap in foil
4. Repeat 9 times {careful - it gets tricky on the second hand }
5. Wait. The pinterest post said 5 minutes, I waited about 3 {impatient} and it worked really well on the first 7 nails, the last 3 could've used more time.
6. Remove foil and swabs and voila! No more glitter! Use another swab just to remove any leftover polish.
