Bestie Twin Christmas Nails with @mynailpolish_addiction

  
It’s all about Christmas on my nails lately, and I was lucky enough to get to team up with Jessica from @mynailpolish_addiction! We went with a mani originally by @cocoasnailss. 

   

The Polishes used for my mani were:

  • China Glaze For Audrey 
  • OPI Pink-ing Of You
  • Essie Tuck It In My Tux
  • Sally Hansen I Love Nail Art Pen in White 
  • QUO by ORLY Nail Art Striper in Red. 
  • Essie Good to Go

 
You can check out Jessica’s page for a tutorial on how she created her version of this mani!

I just love the combo of the blue with the polka dots then the Candy Canes. I’m having fun coming up with new Christmas designs this year!

A little Christmas inspiration. 

Christmas is quickly approaching and Christmas morning is only 10 days away. I’ve been on a Chrisymas mani kick the last couple days, so I thought I would share a few manis for Christmas inspiration. Let me know if you want any information on the polishes used–all details can also be found on my Instagram page!

Mani swap with @armstrongnails

 

I was lucky enough to partner with @armstrongnails  on a mani swap! I always have fun swapping with others–it’s exciting to try out someone else’s brain for a mani! Amber has some amazing manicures to chose from, but in the end I had to chose her patterned nails to recreate. The holo accent just sold me!  
 
The polishes I used for this mani were:

  • Sally Hansen Big Teal
  • L’oreal Holographic Pearls
  • Art Club Nail Art Duo in White
  • Seche Vite 

I love this mani so much! From the sparkle to the herringbone pattern it’s just perfection! 

If you’re not already following @armstrongnails on Instagram, you definitely should be!

Easy glitter gradient featuring OPI Starlight collection. 

 Last month, I was lucky enough to to be sent some gorgeous OPI polishes by Preen.Me from the 2015 Holiday collection. If you follow my Instagram, you’ve probably seen a few designs I’ve posted using the six gorgeous polishes I was gifted with. Today I have another fun manicure using these pretty holiday polishes to share. 

  
 
The two polishes I used for this manicure were In The Moon for Love and Infrared-y to Party. To accomplish this look I started with a base of In the Moon for Love, and applied a coat of Seche Vite to speed up the drying process. Then, using the brush in Infrared-y to Party, I applied the beautiful glitters at the base of my nail, spreading some glitter upwards lightly. Let dry slightly, then seal everything in with your quick dry top coat and bam! You have pretty sparkly nails to love and enjoy.
