Purple Glitter Nails

A few weeks ago, I tried a purple glitter nail design. I wanted each nail to fade from lots of glitter at one end, to less glitter at the other. I started with plain nails...

Then I did a coat of my favourite glittery nail polish (Revlon in Whimsical)...

Next, I added a line of purple glitter at the end of each nail (Sally Hansen Gem Crush in Bejeweled)...

I then alternated layers of the Sally Hansen Gem Crush and Extreme Wear purple glitter, making the stripe a little thicker with each layer - to make it look like it sort of faded down the nails...

I ended up making a bit of a mess...

But after I tidied up the edges and added a clear shiny top coat, it didn't look too bad =D
