I searched for some videos on YouTube, but for some reason all the ombré nails tutorials I saw used really bright colours which I’m not too keen on at the moment (maybe I will in a couple of months, who knows! ;D) Anyway I stumbled upon this video, extremely simple and straight forward. I didn’t have anything similar to the 2nd glitter nail polish she used, but…

Deborah Lippmann introduces her first lipsticks in an exclusive to Barneys New York gift set! “My Love Notes duet is for your sultry side, with a sheer, sexy pomegranate red lip colour called Let’s Do It, paired with My Old Flame, a classic red lacquer from my core collection.” “The lip colour offers a subtle approach to wearing a red lip – It’s sheer, with a beautiful glossy finish that is more approachable than other bold lip shades.

Tweet Easy! All you need is cotton balls, Strips of aluminium foil and of course nail polish remover!
