GLAM NAILS CHALLENGE DECEMBER (2024) — Party Ready ✨🥂

Hello lovelies & happy last Monday of 2024! How is everyone surviving this in-between week that exists between Christmas & New Years? I’ve been surviving on coffee, crackers & hope at this point. BUT! I did manage to get one more manicure done for the last prompt of Glam Nails Challenge December: Party Ready!

& if these nails don’t scream party ready, I’m not sure what else could.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: NailStuff Essentials Base Coat *
  • Top Coat: Nail Stuff Essentials Quick Dry Top Coat *
  • NailStuff Essentials Raven
  • Joe Fresh Gold Rush
  • Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Feeling N-Ice
  • Essie Making Spirits Bright
  • Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Goldie Rocks
  • Starrily Space Debris (c/o: NailStuff.ca)
  • NailStuff.ca dotting tool from Dotting Tool Trio
  • Latex Free Make Up Sponge

*PR/Gifted

Is it even a New Years Eve party if you don’t go all out on the glitter, silver & gold? My New Years Eve celebrations are much tamer nowadays than in my 20s, & usually at home, but I still always have to make such there is some sparkle on my nails. & this nail art look is absolutely perfect for ringing in 2025, no matter what you have planned.

& they were so easy to do! Started with my glitter gradient, then added some dots of more sparkly polish on top until it looks like glitter in exploding from your cuticles.

& that is a wrap on Glam Nails Challenge for another month… & another year! This has been an up & down year for nail polish for me, but I feel really good about what 2025 has to come!

I hope everyone has a lovely & safe New Years Eve… & I will see you next year!

Glam Nails Challenge December—Let’s Party 🎉

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday! The last Wednesday of 2021. Can you believe it?

With Christmas over, it’s time to start thinking New Years Eve nails. & the last prompt of Glam Nails Challenge December is Let’s Party! & when I think News Years Eve, & partying on New Years Eve, I think silver & sparkle. So that was the theme I went with for my party nails.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Essie First Base
  • Top Coat: Seche Vive
  • Dimension Nails Kronosaurus  (gifted c/o: NailStuff.ca)
  • Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Buffalo Nickel
  • Essie Ignite the Night
  • Starrily Eclipse
  • OPI I Snow You Love Me
  • NailStuff.ca Dotting Tool Trio

I had this idea in my head about how I wanted this design to look, with silver/sparkly dots, & then a few scattered glitters from OPI I Snow You Love Me — but wasn’t sure how it was going to turn out until the very end. But I think it turned out exactly like I pictured in my head! Just the right amount of sparkle.

If I wasn’t working New Years Eve & New Years Day… & if the world wasn’t a very scary place, these would totally be the nails I would wear to dance & celebrate New Years Eve! Of course, my New Years plans involve kombucha & probably falling asleep on the couch before midnight (& the biggest veggie platter I can find!) but it doesn’t mean I won’t do it all with sparkly nails.

Because we all know, sparkles make everything better!

What do you think about this sparkly party design? Do you have a fun design planned for New Years Eve? Let me know what nail trends/colours you’re excited for in 2022.
