Rhinestone Nail Art

I rarely do my nails, but I was excited to try out these nail art rhinestones. I didn't know what designs to try, so here's what I came up with.

My favourite design is the mint green  nail polish with 2 strips of the purple rhinestones down the center. I chose to do this on my ring finger & I love how the purple stood out on the mint.
The red rhinestones all over one of my nails is an idea that I pictured would look better just on one an accent nail with the rest of my nails painted red, but I definitely didn't like it.
The other design that I wasn't a big fan of was the huge snowflake that I jazzed up with rhinestones.
The last design I tried was inspired by a string of colourful holiday lights.


I was given the opportunity to try these 12 colours 2mm rhinestones ($3.88) out from BornPrettyStore.com. I've used them for makeup looks before as well. The one makeup look that I've posted on this blog is the Spunky Bright Magenta Look & I used the hot pink rhinestone in the inner corner for it. I really like the size of these rhinestones because they are great if you have short nails & for the inner corner/tear duct area of the eye as well. The colours are great too, but I wish they had dark green rhinestones instead of the pale green ones (besides the dark blue). 

I'm most likely going to use these for makeup more than I will for nails. You could also use them to decorate all sorts of things or for scrapbooking. I think I'm going to try that soon. For now I'm loving using these rhinestones.
