SIMPLE, EASY & QUICK GLEQUIN NAILS & REVIEW, TUTORIAL & DISCOUNT CODE FOR VIVA LA NAILS

Hi guys, long title! If you follow me on instagram you know that I shared a sneaky peak of a gorgeous polish yesterday which I said I'd show you today but I completely forgot that this was still waiting to be posted, so you'll have to wait until tomorrow to see that!
Ok, so I recently got some square glequins and other bits from Viva La Nails to review and here's one of the designs I created with them. I was particularly interested in the square glitter because you guys know I've been on a quest to find the perfect square glitter and their pictures looked promising!
So I receive the blue, pink, red and gold holographic squares, these are on the small size which is why I didn't do a full glitter placement with them because I wanted to create something that was easy and quick for you guys to recreate,  I think they're 1mm.
 I started off with two coats of OPI Sweetheart and then I applied the glequins, I have a tutorial for you later in the post so be sure to click the read more button.

Ok so, here's the tutorial 

What you will need

Base coat (not pictured) 
Base Colour (I'm using OPI Sweetheart) 
4 different colours of small sqaure glequins.
Top coat 
Toothpick/wax pencil to pick and place the glitter with


STEP 1 - After base coat apply base colour


STEP 2 - Apply a small amount of topcoat where your going to apply the gluequins. Then apply one small glequin


STEP 3 - Apply another glequin next to the first glequin you've applied, leave a small gap between the two


STEP 4 - Apply another glequin below the one you've just placed, again leaving a small gap


STEP 5 - Next apply the last glequin to complete the square.


STEP 6 - After applying all the glitter you want apply a generous layer of top coat.


Ok, so that's it, super simple, super easy and fast! And it doesn't have to be perfect because from a normal distance it looks awesome!
The packaging was really great, the pots have a plastic lid thingy under the pot lid to prevent any glitter from leaking out which I found really handy. Each pot contains 5g of glitter and the pot is stuffed with glitter, I don't think anyone can finish a whole pot, haha! Delivery is next day which is great and they ship worldwide.
Whilst the glitter looked promising I was slightly disappointed with how small the glequins were but I guess it's not that big a problem. The other thing is that the glitter pieces are slightly uneven and more rectangular than square which again isn't that big a problem but if your a bit of a perfectionist like me then it might bother you which in that case I probably wouldn't recommend this for you.
However this is a good quality glitter which comes in a variety of colours. I guess they just weren't what I was expecting which is why I feel a tad disappointed with them but I still recommend them because they're great quality and good value and I think this might be the best of what's on offer to UK ladies. I will be using the glitter in other designs too and will report back. 
You can find the glitter pots here and I even have a discount code for you, just enter 'OFF10' in your basket to receive 10% off all products and it's valid for the whole year, which means you can order a pot or two to try them out if your not sure !
