Nail Diaries #4 - MUA Fur Effects!

Eyyy sexy ladies

I cannot stop signing gagnam style all over again, so annoying. However if you want to kick your own ass at the gym, this song helps me get through, i really want to do the dance while on the treadmill but i know how embarrassing that is going to be so instead i just run, haha! 

Anyway, the point of this post is not about gagnam styling on the treadmill, it is about my nails!

So a while ago i bought MUA's Fur Effects in 'Fuzzy Fluff'. In all honesty, i didn't even know if i was going to like this product or not but the creativity of it and the thought of having fuzzy nails appealed to me and i bought it! I decided today to put it on and see what effect it gave, not really expecting much, but i have to tell you, i am in love. My nails feel so soft and fuzzy and..and..strokeable!

Here's what happened:


On the back, the instructions tell you to paint nails with two coats of polish then sprinkle fluff over, or remove  sifter from pot and dip your nails in. I found it easier to pour some fluff into the lid of the pot, then sprinkle this over my nail, give the nail a tap into the lid to get rid of excess, then roll my finger nail in the fluff to cover any missed spots.


So, using Models Own in Raspberry Crush i painted my nails, on my second coat i did one nail at a time and while it was still wet i quickly sprinkled the fluff over it.


Then, doing one finger at a time i covered them all in fluff! Here's a few pictures to show you the difference between the nails with the fur applied, and those without, then my full hand done:


And when i was completely finished this was the final look:


Overall, i really love the effect. I can't stop feeling my nails! So far they have not chipped at all, some fluff does come off after a while though! I would say, i was worried about getting them wet and sure enough the fluff does look pretty weird after you've just washed your hands! It does dry and go back to normal after a few secs though!

I will probably would purchase the MUA fur effect nails in different colours as i like how my nails look, i love how creative you can get with this product and i love how different this is to other types of nail art! Not something I'd wear all the time but fun to get creative with!

Have you tried fur nails?
What do you think of them?
