12 Days of Christmas: Santa and Elves

Hey guys!

Merry christmas!
Time for my last manicure of my 12 Days of Christmas series - santa and his elves.

For the manicure I started off with a green base of Essie Pretty Edgy on all my nails except for my ring finger which I painted red with Essie Happy Wife Happy Life. Afterwards I freehanded the details on santa's suit, the belts and belt-buckles with watered-down white, black, and gold acrylic paint and a small nail art brush.


This is my favourite christmas manicure every year!

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!

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!
