| Speckled and Freckled |
I love the speckled look of the Illamasqua Limited Edition 'I'mperfection Nail Polish - link, but at £14 a pot, I thought it would be fun to have a go at creating my own version, with one of my favourite high street brands; BarryM.
I used the Gelly Hi-Shine pot, in Lychee as my base, and Ruby Glitter on most of my fingers, with a signature pop of Amethyst Glitter on the signature finger of each hand. I think the effect is really pretty, it reminds me of a little speckled egg, which got me thinking that it could be a really cute mani for Easter!
To get this look, it's really so simple, you just need a more nude or neutral base, and a transparent glitter polish, ideally with big and small bits of sparkle.

Definitely! I'd say you would probably have to do around 3 coats, but I was actually careful not to apply too much as I purposefully wanted the base colour to peek through quite a lot! For £2.99 it's such amazing quality!!
