Ombré Glitter Nails

I see a lot of tutorials for nails on pinterest and it's been a long time since I did my own. I thought I'd do something different (and girly) for the weekend away with my family.

Here's my Pinterest Inspiration:

I just had to add this too (no I would never do this) but you have to admit, its pretty artistic:

My Ombre Glitter Nails:

First I picked a base color (pink), a glitter (silver), and fast drying coat (yes it works great!):

Did the first coat (2x):

Then I added the glitter:

The "ombre" effect (which I clearly haven't mastered) is done by putting more on the top (or bottom- depending on which way you want it)...and working your way down. The idea is to have more on the top and on sprinkles of glitter going down the nail. Leave the bottom without glitter.
