DIY Micro Bead Manicure

Whether it's fashion, hair or makeup, certain trends either tend take off or they become complete flop. I've definitely realised I'm not as fussed when it comes to the latest nail trends as I once used to be, however, a certain trend in the nail world seems to have proven quite popular and has definitely caught my eye. 


I now recall seeing wheels of these in my local beauty wholesalers, but completely over priced which is probably why I've never purchased them. After the recent hype and seeing various different ways of creating this look, I decided to hit the internet in an attempt to find these beads much cheaper than anywhere else.

I stumbled across one eBay seller, who had the micro beads for sale in a variety of colours. I took an instant liking to the gold as I love it paired with nude, and for less than £2 it wasn't going to matter if I do only use them a few times and so as soon as they arrived in the post, I began to experiment!

Polish: OPI 'Dulce De Leche', micro beads covering the nail

Spread out slightly 

I think my preferred way is to do this is only on my accent ring finger instead of adorning every nail in them, with the gold that might look a tad 'bling bling'. It may be something I'd consider for a different occasion, but I find this is a lot more subtle and I really, really love it!

Do you think this trend will be a big hit? Will you be trying this manicure?
