Christmas Sweater

Hello ladies!

Today I made a christmas sweater skittlette that I would like to show you guys.

For this manicure I started off with a red base of By K. The Sky is the Limit on all my nails. Afterwards I stamped the sweater design on my middle and ring finger using MoYou London Festive Plate Collection 02 and Mundo de Uñas White stamping polish. To finish off the skittlette I added the silver holographic glitter China Glaze Fairy Dust to my pinky.


Even though the stamping is not perfect, I really, really love how this turned out!

Icicles

Hey guys!

Today I have some more christmas nail art that I made for the Danish nail polish brand By K. to share with you - icicles nail art!

For the manicure I started off with a dark blue base of By K. Ink. Afterwards I used a small nail art brush and white acrylic paint to freehand on the icicles coming down from the cuticles. Lastly I added the silver details on the icicles with the brush and the silver nail polish By K. Moon Dust.


This manicure is so simple and really easy to make!

Rudolph

Hello ladies!

Today I made the cutest christmas nail art ever - little reindeers with Rudolph as an accent nail!
I was inspired by TrendyPolish on Instagram.

For the manicure I started off with a light blue base of Deborah Lippmann Blue Orchid. Afterwards I made the reindeer heads with the brown OPI Ice-bergers and Fries. Then I painted on the antlers with the dark brown Essie Partner in Crime and a small nail art brush. Lastly I added the eyes and noses with white and black acrylic paint and dotting tools in various sizes, except for on the Rudolph nose which I dotted on with the red shimmer piCture pOlish Bridget.


I think these are so cute!

Fancy Friday: Christmas Food

Hello ladies!

Today it is time for some more Fancy Friday nail art. This week's challenge is christmas food, so I decided to make some cute little gingerbread men inspired by nailsbydaniellet on Instagram!

For the manicure I started off with a maroon base of Essie Dress to Kilt on all my nails except for my pinky which I painted with the burgundy glitter Essie Leading Lady. For the nail art on my middle and ring finger I painted the gingerbread man shape in white followed by a light brown. Lastly I added all the gingerbread man details with a small dotting tool, a small nail art brush, black and white acrylic paint, the green Essie Pretty Edgy and the red Essie Lollipop.


I love how the little fellas turned out!

Santa Hats

Hey guys!

Today I have some more christmas nail art to show you: a french santa hat manicure!

For the nail art I started off with a red tip of Essie Lollipop. Afterwards I used the white nail polish Essie Blanc and a dotting tool to add the fur details on the santa hats. Then I went in again with Essie Lollipop and a small nail art brush to draw a triangular shape down the nail to make it resemble the top of the santa hats. Lasty I added more fur details with Essie Blanc and a dotting tool and outlined the top of the hats with black acrylic paint and a small nail art brush.


This is one of my all time favorite christmas manicures!
