NOTD - Gorgeous Galaxies

I've been pondering this look for a little while now, but seeing the lovely job Lynnie made of it this week over on Beaut.ie I was inspired.

As ever, I've kept things simple though hopefully the end result belies that fact.

Don't let the amount of colours I've used put you off, there's no doubt similar to these in your own collections or you can leave out the yellow & pink on the nebulas. The makeup sponge is one of 20 picked up in Dunnes for €5 but readily available in chemists etc. The paperclip is pilfered from my desk. (sshhhh). 

Start with 2 coats of black, I've used Catrice I Wear my Sunglasses at Night
because of the micro red & green glitter (that you can't see here)

My choice for galaxy colours, be sure to dab the sponge before placing on the nail

Using the makeup sponge place your nebulas on the nails bed. White first, then yellow & pink
with navy to buff along its edges

With the end of the paperclip (or a toothpick) place small white dots to represent stars.
Include some larger dots for planets

A swish of glitter adds to the effect. I've used Bourjois (my all time fave)
but any glitter will do, even several sized glitters

A quick clean up & A shiny topcoat to protect your design & Spock's your Uncle!

Would you be giving this one this one a lash? Unfortunately as I've meetings all this week I'm going to have to paint most of 'em black & just keep the accent nail but its still a great effect.
