Instagram Nail Art Collab — Ice Nails ❄️🧊

Good morning lovelies & happy 2025! I hope everyone had a lovely end to 2024 & are excited for whatever 2025 has to bring. Today, I’m starting off my new year by joining in on a fun Instagram Nail Art Collab.

The theme this month: Ice Nails. So I went with an icy waterfall look that (to me) resembles icicles.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: NailStuff Essentials Base Coat *
  • Top Coat: Nail Stuff Essentials Quick Dry Top Coat *
  • Pahlish Seto Taisho (Teacup Soldier)
  • NailStuff Essentials Holographic Top Coat *
  • Starrily Space Debris
  • Starrily Cobalt (Co)
  • China Glaze December to Remember
  • Essie Making Spirits Bright
  • Dam Nail Polish Sapphire
  • NailStuff 4mm Micro Detail Brush

How beautifully chilly do these nails look? Are they not giving Elsa? They turned out exactly how I had pictured in my head, & I’m so happy about it. I just adore them!

If you pop on over to Instagram, you can view all the designs for this collaboration using the hashtag #icenailartmanicollab2025.

Even though things are about to get very very busy for me outside my nail life, I’m really excited for what is to come with this blog! I’m excited to continue to create fun nail art looks, & I hope you’re excited to see what I do!

Happy Friday

Happy Birthday Waterfall Nails 💖🧁💅

*includes PR

Hello lovelies & happy Tuesday. & happy day after Canadian Thanksgiving. I’m sure my fellow Canadians are also feeling the post-holiday food coma.

Today is my birthday, so I wanted to do some special nails for the occasion. & when thinking about what nail polish I wanted to wear, there was only one that came to mind: Cadillacquer Lavender Sunset — the NailStuff exclusive shade released earlier this year. & I finally tried layering it over a darker base, which I’ve been meaning to try for a while & it looks absolutely spectacular!

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: NailStuff Essentials Base Coat
  • Top Coat: Nail Stuff Essentials Quick Dry Top Coat
  • Cadillacquer Lavender Sunset
  • OPI Infinite Shine Mariachi Makes My Day (layered under Lavender Sunset)
  • NailStuff Essentials Holographic Top Coat
  • Essie Nail Art Studio Cosmic Chrome
  • Essie Separated Starlight
  • Essie Birthday Girl
  • Quo by Orly Black Striper
  • Nailstuff Mermaid Tail 7mm liner brush

So, with full disclosure, this was not originally the design I had planned for my birthday nails. I saw a cool manicure online that I loved, but apparently when I went back to find it… I had forgotten to save it. So when I attempted it from memory… things did not turn out the way I planned.

This was actually design attempt #4… maybe #5. I’ll be honest… I lost count.

But you know after all the hassle & frustration, I actually love how these ended up looking! So I guess it was all worth it. When all else fails, pull out some sparkly polishes & create a fun waterfall look!

What do you think of these birthday nails? Would you wear this sparkly waterfall look?

Let me know what you think! & have a beautiful day.
