Deborah Lippmann Across the Universe with gold star studs

Deborah Lippmann Across the Universe was one of my rare polish splurges and when I got the 3mm gold star studs from KKCenterHk, I decided to put them together for a starry night kind of look :)

Please click read more for more pics.
I started with 1 coat of Essence Date in the Moonlight (a dark blue with shimmer) and added 1 coat of Deborah Lippmann Across the Universe. It is really a gorgeous polish with blue and green hexes and tiny glitter in black jelly polish and no fishing for glitter required.

I then added a little of Essence Make it Golden to create nebula-look and the 3mm gold star studs from KKCenterHk which comes in a ziplock bag below. I did not use nail glue, just clear non-fast dry polish to stick them on, which I found to be sufficient, especially after adding top coat.

As the studs are not that big, even though my nails are quite curved, the studs do not stick out very much and feel pretty secure on my nails.

Here is a pic in natural light.

I always love the added interest that studs add to manis and if you are interested to get these, click on this link and use "barenailsnomore" for 10% off purchases ;)
