I'm not working much at the moment which means I finally get to spend time painting my nails. It's usually my go-to procrastination activity at uni so it was nice to take time and try something new now I'm at home. It's not exactly inventive but it was seriously simple and makes my nails look longer than they are. 2 birds, 1 stone!

I wanted to make the traditional french manicure a bit more summery, so a few splashes of the Sour Apple confetti worked a treat over the top.

 

 The 3-in-1 base coat, top coat & hardener is probably one of the best things I've bought and I've got into a routine of applying it both before and after any coloured varnish I'm using. My nails have definitely strengthened recently because of it but the real challenge will be if I can keep my nails long and strong during my upcoming final year at university!

Today I started with the base coat and then painted the white tips as usual. Then after waiting for them to dry, I applied 2-3 layers of the confetti varnish over the tips and voila - a fruity french manicure! If only it smelt of apples too..



Anyone else a fan of the confetti polishes?
