In a galaxy far, far away...

I painted my nails. ;)

Last night I decided I wanted to try out galaxy nails, so I found a tutorial here: BeautyLish.com.

It is a really great tutorial and totally easy to do. You just need a few different polishes.

I used Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear in White On, this blue shade of Ultra Pro (the label with it's name has fallen off, sorry), Revlon in Cherries in the Snow, Sally Hansen InstaDri in Uptempo Plum, and Pure Ice in Spit Fire. Just some colors I already had around. :)

Weekly Nail!

Snappy Sorbet and smokey quartz glitter!

Here are my nails this week.  So as far as cheap nail polishes go, Sally Hansen Insta-Dry is by far my favorite polish.  Every color I've tried has been so opaque that I only need one coat, plus it really does dry fast.  It's awesome, haha. And it's only about $4!!

Anyway, what I did here was a coat (only one!) of this polish in Snappy Sorbet and let it dry.

Then one nail at a time, I applied a coat of clear polish and, using a paint brush, added the gold glitter to the wet clear polish.

(You could also use a glitter polish, I just didn't have any at the time.)

Then just apply a final coat of clear polish and you are done!
