Black and gold

Barry M Black OPI Goldeneye sponged gradient

I was streaming with cold when I did this (well, still am) and just wanted to do something simple.  So I did 2 coats of Barry M (a really nice glossy black) and instead of sponging the tips, I sponged the base of my nails with OPI Goldeneye.

Of course, this backfired, as I now had fingers COVERED in gold glitter which was a complete pain in the arse to get off!  Nevertheless, I do like the combination of black and gold, and may still do my original idea soon, which was a black and gold skittle mani.  Just need to get rid of this damn cold first!
