Ruby Slippers Jelly Nails

Hello!
Today I have another nail tutorial for you. This time it's a kind of jelly sandwich, it's pretty simple to do.
I used Louise Gray for Topshop's 'Pinch Punch', Barry M's 'Red Wine', a glitter topcoat from Rimmel and a clear polish to finish from 17's Lasting Fix range. The steps are as follows:
1. Apply base coat as usual.
2. Apply an even coat of 'Pinch Punch'- I usually dab it on to spread the silver glitter evenly.
3. Now put a good coat of the glitter topcoat on top. This way you get to see both types of glitter at once!
3. Next apply a thin coat of 'Red Wine' on top of this- this is great because it tints the glitter underneath red, but still lets it sparkle in the light. You don't need much at all to cover your nail and it's a lovely, semi-sheer jelly red.

Below you can find a step by step photo guide to this process and some pictures of the polishes too.










Rimmel's Glitter Topcoat in 'Disco Gold', it's about £4-5 if I remember correctly.
'Red Wine' by Barry M, this was £2.99 from Superdrug.
'Pinch Punch' by Louise Gray for Topshop, this was about £5 or £6 I think.
