Good morning darlings & happy Sunday! & happy December 1st! I hope you’re having a beautiful start to the month. & happy belated Thanksgiving to my American friends.
Today I’m so excited because Victoria at NailStuff.ca has once again released some new beauties as part of her NailStuff Essentials line. This time, we have 3 beautiful cream shades; White Dove, Raven & Cardinal. & I’m lucky enough to be able to share swatches of all three with you today!
Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday! Halfway through the week, & only 4 days away from December 1st. Who else hasn’t started their Christmas shopping yet?
Today I’m showing off more glittery nails on my shorties. I was feeling some handprinted snowflakes, since they’ve been all over my Instagram feed, so I decided to give them a go. & obviously, I needed a good base for them to pop over, so I picked some more sparkles. After all, ’tis the season for sparkle!
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
Base Coat: NailStuff Essentials Base Coat *
Top Coat: Nail Stuff Essentials Quick Dry Top Coat *
How pretty did these little snowflakes turn out. I’ve never been the most comfortable free handing my snowflakes, but I was feeling pretty confident after watching way too many tutorial videos. & they turned out absolutely beautiful, & I’m very proud of that.
I’m trying not to get too Christmas-y on my nails yet, as Glam Nails Challenge December starts next Wednesday, & I’m going all in to end this year! There are so many great prompts, so I’m really excited for some fun designs to end this year strong.
What do you think of my twinkling snow flakes? Has it snowed where you are yet? We haven’t had anything more than a couple flurries, but they are calling for a potential snowstorm at the end of the week which is crazy!
Hello loves & happy Wednesday! A chilly, icy, windy Wednesday here. Winter is quickly approaching, so I feel like some snowflake nails aren’t completely out of the realm of possibility.
I’m officially going all in on the holiday nails so if you have any requests for fun nails, let me know! I’m always up for creating some fun holiday looks to inspire people.
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
Base Coat: NailStuff Essentials Base Coat *
Top Coat: Nail Stuff Essentials Quick Dry Top Coat *
Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Living in the Presents
OPI Pirouette My Whistle
NailStuff.ca Snowflake stickers

Don’t these just remind you of a snow globe? I love how they turned out. These were so super easy to do, & I love how beautiful they look. Plus the thick glossy top coat from NailStuff Essentials really sealed in the stickers so you don’t have to worry about any edges sticking up.
They just turned out so beautiful, & I love how that the colours are more subdued but then you also get the fun glitter.
What do you think about these glittery snowflake nails? Sadly, this was the last manicure I did with long nails — I had a pretty awful break after I wore them, & am now rocking some serious shorties. But they’ll be fun to do some Holiday nail art looks on my shorties, & also inspire those with shorties as well!
Good morning lovelies & happy Monday! Trying to get back into my regular posting schedule again, with a Monday post. I feel like things are getting a bit crazy, so it’s been harder lately. But here’s hoping with the holidays coming (& holiday nail art) I can find a more consistent routine!
Today’s look is a classic holiday nail art look — candy cane stripes! Again, this is one that I repeat year after year, but I decided to spruce it up a bit with a little more sparkle ✨.
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
Base Coat: NailStuff Essentials Base Coat *
Top Coat: Nail Stuff Essentials Quick Dry Top Coat *
Holo Top Coat: Nail Stuff Essentials Holographic Top Coat *
Essie Making Spirits Bright
Essie Off Tropic *
Essie Bordeaux *
Essie Blanc
NailStuff.ca 16mm Striper Brush

Are these not giving serious Christmas vibes? I always love a good candy cane stripe design this time of year, because it’s just the right amount of holiday vibes. & they pair perfectly with the holly bush in our front yard.
What are we thinking about this candy cane stripe look? Sometimes I like to go more subtle with this design, but the glitter was just calling to me!
So when do you start your holiday nail art looks? Let me know in the comments below.
Good morning lovelies & happy Monday! It’s a beautiful but oh so chilly morning. It’s also officially the countdown to Halloween, so my goal is to share a Halloween themed nail look every day leading up to Halloween.
& my first Halloween look to share are some freehand drippy blood nails!
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
Base Coat: NailStuff Essentials Base Coat *
Top Coat: Nail Stuff Essentials Quick Dry Top Coat *
I always love when people post their drippy blood nails, so I had to give it a try. The red on red also looks very cool! These would be an awesome manicure to wear if you were doing like a vampire costume. Kind of reminds me of Drusilla from Buffy!
What do you think of my drippy blood nails for Halloween? Have you picked your Halloween nails yet? Let me know all your thoughts & let me know what you’ll be wearing.
