Festive Holiday Nails

Welcome to the 12 Days of Blogmas - Day 4

I wanted to share some Festive Holiday Nail inspiration with you today. These nails got the stamp of approval from my 4 year old cousin so I know you're going to like them. If you want to check out the festive nails I did for Blogmas last last year, you can find that here.

This is a really simple way to make your nails look a little more festive. I painted my nails green (I just used some dollar nail polish because it was my only forest green one). I then took a tooth pick and cut a bit of the end off to give it a flat surface for dotting. I then dipped the toothpick into some sparkly gold nail polish from Maybelline and did 3 vertical dots on my nails. I let it dry a little and finished with my Formula X top coat. I was very happy with how it turned out.

Let me know what you think! Remember to come back tomorrow for more of the 12 Days of Blogmas!

Merry Christmas Eve!

I hope everyone has a very happy holiday whether you celebrate Christmas or not! I won't be posting a blogmas post tomorrow as mentioned earlier however I'll be back boxing day and every weekday until New Years.

Here is a Christmas Inspired Nail Polish idea. The exact shades of nail polish is not that important and can be changed depending on the desired look. I used a red and gold nail polish by OPI.
I started by applying two pieces of tape at the base of my nail leaving a space in the shape of a triangle exposed. I filled in the triangle with gold polish. It is important to wait for the polish to dry before removing the tape. Once the triangle is dry and the tape is removed you can paint the rest of the nail being careful not to paint over the triangle. If you apply a top coat it is very important to wait for the polish to dry to avoid smudging the two colours.
