12 Days of Christmas: Christmas Tree

Hey guys!

Today I have another christmas manicure to share with you - shattered glass christmas trees!

For the manicure I started off with a black base of Essie Licorice on all my nails. Afterwards I used some duochrome foil cut into different sized triangles to make the shattered glass christmas tree on my middle and ring finger. To finish everything off I applied gold star studs to my middle finger, ring finger, and pinky.

I am definitely on board on this shattered glass trend!

Hey guys!

Today it is time for another 12 Days of Christmas manicure!

This time I made a snowman skittlette. 

For the manicure I started off with a white base of CND Cream Puff on all my nails except for my pinky which I painted red with Essie Happy Wife Happy Life. Afterwards I freehanded the snowman's face on my middle finger with black acrylic paint, the orange L'Oréal Lush Tangerine and a small nail art brush and the snowman's body on my ring finger with black acrylic paint, the red Essie Happy Wife Happy Life, Mundo de Uñas Green and a small nail art brush. I finished off by stamping the stripes on my pinky with MoYou London Festive 06 and Mundo de Uñas Green stamping polish.

This snowman is so cute!

12 Days of Christmas: Presents

Hey guys!

Time for another manicure for my 12 Days of Christmas series - 3D presents!

For the manicure I stamped different christmas designs from the MoYou London Festive 06 plate in different colors. On my pointer I used the white CND Cream Puff stamped with the red By K. Oy-Mak, on my middle finger I used the dark green Essie Going Incognito stamped with the holographic green Literary Lacquer Green Gables, on my ring finger I used the red Essie Head Mistress stamped with the gold Essie Good as Gold, and on my pinky I used the light blue Deborah Lippmann Blue Orchid stamped with the silver Essie No Place Like Chrome. To make the presents I used striping tape in different colors.

I used my new MoYou London sticky stamper to make this nail art and it is A-MA-ZING!

12 Days of Christmas: Santa Suit

Hey guys!

Today I have some simple christmas nail art to show you for my 12 Days of Christmas series - a santa suit accent nail inspired by Laura of @laublm!

For the manicure I started off with a red base of piCture pOlish O'Hara on all my nails. Afterwards I used a big dotting tool and white nail polish followed by watered-down black acrylic paint and a small nail art brush to make the suit and the belt. To finish it off I added small black studs as the buttons and a gold square stud as the belt buckle.

I think this accent nail is so cute and simple!

piCture pOlish Saphira

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of the beautiful piCture pOlish Saphira that I got at Nail the Mail to share with you! 

Saphira is a dark blue crelly with holographic glitter and scattered holo.

The formula is great - not to thick and not to thin and it is easy to apply. It was opaque in two thin coats so the opacity is great too.

Close-up!

I am loving blue shades right now - especially the darker ones and this one is no exception!
