Welcome To The Dark Side

Black nails are just one of those things… you either love them or you hate them!

I love them, but I hate it when they chip! They end up looking very goth, but not in a good way! And let’s face it, good ‘ol fashioned nail polish doesn’t last long, and who really has time to paint their nails daily? There was a time when I did, but not anymore.

On Friday I went to change up my Shellac from my fun Polka Dotty Nails and decided to go over onto the dark side!

Shellac Black Pool is the one colour of Shellac I had been dying to try! Black, glossy, chip-free nails for over two weeks! Now that’s what I’m talking about.

As I’m going to the Converse #GETDIRTY event on Saturday, I wanted something a little rocker. Something a little bit edgy and I definitely knew I wanted to use one the skull nail art from my  Nails inc Leather Effect Bling it on Rebel selection.

This is how the final look came out.

On my right hand, we blinged up only the ring finger with some of the crystals from the Bling it on Rebel selection, and on my left, Jo-D added a skull to my thumb. Jo-D herself, was wearing the most amazing red Shellac on her nails, Ruby Ritz and she used this colour on my ring finger!

Ruby Ritz is beautiful! It has this almost glassy type sparkle effect that has so much depth it will drive you nuts!

Abi Ray, from East Coast Radio – who also loves her Shellac, had her nails done just after mine. She also went over to the Dark Side!

Take a look…

Love this! Each nail a different effect – loving the gold on black detail!

And now, for the inspiration behind The Dark Side… Jo-D’s nails…

    Dimi, who do you go to for your nails? I love black, but I also get rather bleak when they chip after two days. It’s all the typing.

      Hey Kathy! I know hey, these online jobs are so bad for our nails 🙂
      The black Shellac is amaze. I love it to bits! Three days and they still look the same as day one! It’s the blackest black and super shiny!

      Jo-D does my Shellac nails for me. She is the Shellac Regional Manager so I’m sure she can help you out or point you in the right direction! Her number is 073 364 3160

      Would love to hear your thoughts after you’ve tried it!
      Once you go Shellac, you just never go back 🙂
