Green Tips This Christmas

French tips with mistletoe! :D This set of nails is pretty easy to create. Coat a layer of OPI Isn't That Precious, followed by a few coats of transparent minute gold shimmer. This would give it a slight shimmer under the light. Use CG Glittering Garland on the nail tips and use a stripper brush to draw a line across, below the green tips. Using a dotter, dot three red dots for the mistletoe. For the leaves, use a small brush to paint it on. And there you go! 

Christmas Nails!

Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year. There's something so festive and joyful about it. :)

Anyway, this year I had requests from my friends to do their nails for them, so I came up with a few rough designs, some with reference to online sources. 

This design is based on a snowy theme. There's a snowflake on the thumb, a snowman on the middle finger and icicles on the pinky. The alternate dark and light blue was my friend's idea, and it turned out really nice! I feel that the dark blue does give more contrast to the design. 

This set of nails was inspired by a photo of reindeer nails I saw online. I thought having the reindeer face on the nail was really cute. But I didn't want every nail to have a reindeer face, so I added the antlers. Initially, I left the middle nail a plain white, but my friend wanted the silver glitter stripes. Turned out it really looked more festive after adding the stripes. Both the pinky and thumb are just a plain brown (OPI Wooden Shoe Like To Know).

DAY 11: Polka Dots

It was my bestie's 21st birthday yesterday, and her theme was polka dots. So I did this set of nails, for her birthday and it falls in line with the theme for DAY 11 of the nail challenge.

I first painted two coats of OPI's Isn't That Precious?, followed by a blue polish from faceshop on the tips. Using a dotter, I used OPI's Mummy Knows Best to create the dots. With a stripper brush, I used OPI's Last Friday Night (Katy Perry Collection!!) to line the tips. And TA-DA!! Polka dotted tips are born!
