Christmas Manicure #11

Hey guys!

Tomorrow is christmas (at least in Denmark), so I made yet another christmas manicure for you.
Today it is an Icicle Manicure!
For the base I painted all my nails royal blue with 2 coats of Essie Mesmerize. Then I used a small nail striper and white nail polish for the icicles. Lastly I painted details on the icicles with some silver nail polish and the same small nail striper as before.


Merry christmas girls!

Christmas Manicure #10

Hey girls!

Today I have the cutest christmas nail art for you guys.
It is a Santa Hat French Manicure!
This manicure was inspired by the amazing nail artist keshialilly.

I started off by painting the very tip of my nails with two thin coats of Essie Lollipop. Afterwards I dotted on some white polka dots along the red tip for some details. Then I painted on the top part of the hat with a striper and some red nail polish and once that was dry I outlines it with a striper and some black nail polish. Lastly I used the same dotting tool as before and added the very last detail - a dot at the end of the hat.


It may seem and look very hard to do, but it is so simple and easy!
I really love this look. It is so cute and perfect for christmas.

Christmas Manicure #9


Hey you guys!

Another day - another christmas manicure.
Today it is christmas presents accent nails!
I started off by painting all my nails red with two layers of Essie Lollipop, except for my ring finger, which I painted green with two layers of Essie Pretty Edgy. Those two colours matched together are perfect for any christmas manicure!
For the two christmas present accent nails I used some gold striping tape and a lot of patience!
You can check out ErinZi's tutorial on how to do them here.


I really love this manicure - so cute and simple!
What do you think?

Christmas Manicure #8


Hey girls!

Today I have some more christmas nail art for you.
This time it is another christmas tree manicure!
For the base I painted all my nails green with two coats of Essie Pretty Edgy and one coat of Essie Set in Stones for some sparkles. Then I used a little dotting tools to paint on the gold tinsel with Pieces 24 Carat and a big dotting tool to paint on the christmas ornaments with a white base and red nail polish on top of it.


Do you like it?
I think it is kinda awesome!

Christmas Manicure #7

Hey girls!

Sooo I got another christmas manicure for you guys.
Today it is two dotted christmas tree accent nails!
I started off by painting all my nails with two layers of Pieces 24 Carat, except for my two accent nails, which I painted white with OPI Alpine Snow. Then I simply dotted on the two christmas trees. For that purpose I used various sized dotting tools, two green nail polished for the tree, a gold nail polish for the star and a red nail polish for the christmas ornaments! So easy and pretty!


This christmas manicure is definitely my favorite one after the Santa and Elfs Suits one!

Christmas Manicure #6

Hey guys!

Today I have another christmas manicure for you.
This time it is a Gingerbread Man(icure) - Get it?
For the base I painted all my nails red with two coats of Essie Lollipop, except for the two accent nails, which I painted brown with La Femme Beauty Brown. Then I used a striper, a medium dotting tool and some white nail polish for the frosting. Lastly I dotted four smarties in two different colours on top of the white frosting, two red of Essie Lollipop and two green of Essie Pretty Edgy.


I am not sure if I like it, given that the frosting stripes are so thick and the two accent nails does not look alike - But then again, there is not two Gingerbread Men who look exactly alike, is there? Maybe it is part of the charm.
Merry Christmas!
