Barry M have cracked our nails

For years we had the same nail styles circulating around, its was either: bare nails, false nails, acrylic nails (with detail and design), one colour nails, multiple coloured nails, or arty nails. But now beauty gang 'Barry M' have made 'crackle' ('black crackle' is most common right now) which gives us another fashionable way to keep updating our look. 'Crackle' is so easy to use. Personally I prefer to see 'black crackle' painted over a single solid colour, here's 5 easy steps to how its done:

1. file nails down to a comfortable size and paint with a clear (or light colour) base coat, to protect your nails,
2. choose a bright solid (none gloop) colour thats bang-on-trend and paint all of the nail, leave 10-15 minutes to completely dry (apply a second coat if you feel the first isn't strong enough, and leave the same amount of time to dry)
3. paint over the top of your bold colour with a brush filled with 'barry M black crackle' cover the whole nail,
4. leave to set, do not touch or pick at the black crackle. Leave 15 minutes to completely dry
5. (optional) take a clear non chipping nail polish to protect your new glam leopard print nails.
done :)

Look for 'barry M Black crackle' at your local beauty store, they also do a variety of colours

About me

I’m Vicky, a young girl (16) with a passion for style. I love clothes, fashion, hair, beauty and all things girly. I absolutely love all things celebrities and I love speculating on their style, if I love it, I want it, but I also love making styles and trends my own!

One of my favourite things to do is buy magazine, don’t get me wrong I like the gossip, but most of all I buy them for the pictures, I love taking time to study a style. If I love the image, I often cut it out and stick it on my ‘Fashionista’ wall in my room. There is method in my madness though, even though I love clothes and admittedly I have a lot of it, some days I just cannot find anything to wear (or anything suitable) so when these days occur I refer to the ‘Fashionista’ wall for inspirational styles.

My blog doesn’t just cover styles (fashion) it will cover everything from in season nail varnish to bang-on-trend hair styles. My blog also gives readers a chance to voice their opinion and I believe it’s absolutely OK to say that you really don’t like a style! Hey, we can’t love everything! Lastly, I really hope you enjoy my blog, feel free to comment. J
