GOSH Nail Glitter

I had a lot of tip wear so I but the glitter on the tips only. I did as it says on the box:

1) Put clear polish where you want glitter to be.
2) Dip the nail in glitter pot.
3) Brush off excesses back into pot.

I haven't added top coat yet but the scratchy glitter is attracting fluff from everywhere so I may have to put one on...
