MUA Nail Constellation - Gemini

MUA Nail Constellation - Gemini
Paired with 'Pink Friday' by OPI
Now, I am no artiste but I know a thing or two about creating fabulous works of art for my nails and this week is the turn of MUA's recent take on the Ciate 'Caviar Manicure' - 'Nail Constellations'. I haven't tried a Caviar Manicure, and I would very much like to, so I was very excited when MUA brought out their magically colourful beads earlier this month. MUA say, 'Be inspired by the stars and get creative with your nails'. 

Named after star signs, I might go so far as to say that Nail Constellations are out of this world (poor, I know, but you laughed didn't you?!), I really love the colours of this particular selection, metallic gold, green and purple. Even the application, although a little messy, is a little bit of fun for your average Wednesday afternoon (and not too difficult either, I went for the pour-it-on-and-hope-for-the-best approach). 

MUA's Nail Constellations won't break the bank, they're £3 for the little bottle which doesn't hurt me when I can't find the time to pop the remaining beads back into the bottle (you can though, I tried). Superdrug are having a meltdown, well they are near me anyway, and can't keep restocking the stands quick enough to cope with the demand for these beauties, so I say put your best elbow forward and hunt out a Superdrug that might be a little quieter than the massive shops, they should have some left!

Are you a fan of the idea of 3D nail art? I didn't think I would be, but these little beads are tastefully sweet!

  1. I really love the look of these, I would never pay ciate prices but I LOVE that MUA have come out with their own version for such an affordable price! I love the colour combination you used here, it's so polished but fun at the same time! <3

    1. I love them too! It's so hard to try and not wave my hands around so wildly in doing things though in case I knock the beads off! But they all did stay on overnight so that's a bonus :-)

  2. I bought myself the black constellations pot but now I'm thinking I need to go back and get this shade to wear with light pink! :)

    1. I bought the black one too, purely because it was the only one left on the shelf at the time, and then I went back and they had this, definitely worth snapping up!
