Hello lovelies & happy December! Yep… that’s right. It’s December! Which means the countdown to Christmas is officially on! & the abundance of Christmas designs can begin! As promised, I’m participating in GlamNailsChallenge for December, as I love a holiday themed nail art Challenge.
& the first prompt for the month: Jingle Bells.
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
- Base Coat: Essie First Base
- Top Coat: Seche Vive
- Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Red It Twice (2021 Joy of Colour collection)
- Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Gift For Blue (2021 Joy of Colour collection)
- Starrily Vantablack
- Essie Muse Myself
- China Glaze Ever Glaze Cashin’ Out
- NailStuff.ca Clear Stamper
- Born Pretty Store Stamping Plate (no longer available)
- Small detail brush
How cute did these turn out?
I started over with a base of my two colours which are both shades from the new Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Joy of Colour collection for Holidays 2021, that were so kindly gifted to me from Sally Hansen. I really like the soft grey with sparkle of Gift for Blue against the more poppy brightness of Red It Twice. Next I stamped the bell image onto my nail using my Nailstuff stamper & Starrily Vantablack. I knew that it needed some kind of colour, so with a very tiny detail brush, I went in with my Essie Water-colours shade Muse Myself… which, over the sparkle, totally comes across as gold! I finished with some red & green accents, just to tie everything together, & topped everything with topcoat to seal the look in.
