Shake Your Tail Feathers On Your Nails!!

Feathered nails..not the most practical nail art but it got me in a flap!

'Feather Nails- Full Set'

So ,after my dear friend Becca told me she'd seen it on E!, I was keen to give feathered nails a go. Although she made it sound simple- it was very messy! Basically, you paint your nails with a base colour (I used a nude varnish from Dior), then stick a feather on, trim to fit the nail and then seal with a clear topcoat. 

Sounds dead easy but it was actually pretty tricky! The painting and sticking bit was a doddle but when I came to trim the feather, it kinda went a bit sloppy so I think i'll need another go to perfect this! Once I'd finished, I had an unusual set of nails but not all of the feathers stayed flush to my nails and started to peel which was very impractical and I ended up just peeling them off!

 'The only one that came out perfect!'

 As far as nail art goes I'd give it a 6/10 for ease but a 10/10 for uniqueness..its the thought that counts right?
