Christmas Present Mani

Hi all. It would not be Christmas without a Christmas present mani so that's what I'm showing you today!

The base colors from L to R are: China Glaze Mistletoe Kisses, Wet n Wild Burgundy Frost, China Glaze Starboard and China Glaze Stroll.  The bows were just made by mixing different acrylic paints and using a striper brush.

CURSE THIS MANI!! It chipped like none other and I have no idea why. I used Seche Vite on it. Burgundy  Frost always chips on me in less than a day, but this entire thing went crazy after like one single day. Behold:

Oh well. It looked cute for the day that it lasted :)

Hope you all are doing well! See you later :)

Wintery Penguins

What would winter be without adorable penguins! That's what I decided to do for today's post.

I started with a base of Zoya Jo and freehanded the penguins with acrylic paint. I like that they are peeking out from the side! I think it gives them a cool perspective.

Not much to say about this one, but I love em! I also took pictures for a tutorial, so let me know below if you want to see that. What do you think of my little peng'inns? Have a great day!

Christmas Mani -- Cute Santa

Hi all! I'm so excited to start Christmas manis EEE!! I played around with my nail wheels last night and came up with some cute ideas so I sat down and did this one for today. It's an adorable chunky Santa!

I started with two coats of China Glaze Starboard. This is an awesome Christmas green in my opinion. Maybe a little light, but it worked for this mani :) Here is a swatch of Starboard in case you've yet to see one....unlikely.

Then I painted all nails except for my middle fingers with China Glaze Party Hearty. I told you I was going to make up for lost time by using this all the time! I love it. It's just so festive!

Chunky Santa was made with acrylic paints and that's it. Pretty simple really. Voila!
