French white with freehand black and silver detail nail art

I did my nails in a french pink and white style but used white tips.  The tips didn't look right just white - there was too much white! So I added black and silver sweeps with my nail art pens. It broke up the white and made the design a bit more interesting.

 What do you think?
I will do it neater next time, this was just an experiment to see what it looked like.

Purple and silver glitter gel nails

Ok so for my Brother's Wedding I decided to wear a purple dress, but my shoes and bag were silver so I wanted my nails to have a bit of both.  I just left some silver at the tips but filed the smile line down and put the purple glitter there, leaving the tips silver.  I think they looked pretty good, my technique is improving!

The wedding went well and my Nails looked fab!

Silver glitter tip nails

I decided to do some party nail looks as my Brother's wedding was coming up, I couldn't decide to wear silver or purple so I went for silver a few weeks before to see how it looked:

I loved them!

Purple transparent gel with purple glitter

These are my favourites so far.  The colour is much deeper and the glitter makes them really stand out, it helps that purple is my favourite colour!

Sculpted gel nails with large pink glitter

I tried a similar effect as before but I wanted more glitter, so I mixed some large glitter with clear gel so I had more control of how much glitter was in the gel.

Clear sculpted gel nails with pink glitter

Here are some gel nails with pink transparent glitter gel.  The gel was clear with added glitter and so the colour is not very strong, but perfect if you want a more subtle effect.  I sculpted the nails on a form so that there was no tip visible.

I apologise for the picture quality, they were taken on my phone!

First attempt at water marbling on my own nails

Here is the my first attempt at water marbling on my own nails.  I made a huge mistake though and smudged them when I put on my topcoat!

Not bad for a first try, but will do better next time.

I put vaseline on my fingers to help clear the mess up which worked well but I might try taping my fingers next time to make it even easier.

Any tips about using topcoat after water marbling would be appreciated, I really don't want my designs to be smudged again!

I did some marbling on some tips which I will post in the next few days, they didn't smudge so should look much better than these pics.
