Merry Christmas!!

Hey guys!
Merry Christmas!
Just a quick post before Christmas officially ends haha.
So I played around with some Christmas-y colours: red, white, green and gold (for that extra sparkle) and I came up with this:

I alternated with OPI Alpine snow with OPI Red Shatter and Sally Hansen XtremeWear in Emerald City with OPI White shatter on my fingers and I put Orly Luxe on my thumb.

To make it extra sparkly (what's Christmas without sparkles right?) I topped it off with Maybelline Express Finish in Pot of Gold and some extra gold glitter on my thumb!

Oh and here's what I did with my sister's nails!
I made the candy cane stripes with OPI Alpine Snow and Maybelline Wet shine Diamonds in Cherry Carats. Then I added red and silver glitter on top and sealed it with a top coat.
I really like how this turned out! I'd probably wear this on non-Christmas days too!
and it kinda reminds me of one of Katy Perry's dresses haha.

Hope you've all had a lovely Christmas!!

A V-ery Nude French Mani

Please excuse my lame title..i couldn't help myself hehehe =)
I've been wearing a lot of dark colours on my nails lately, so i decided to change it up a bit and give my nails a bit of a breather.
So here's what i came up with..

Maybelline Colorama Ballerina and Cold as Ice, Essie Topless & Barefoot

A V-Shaped french mani! I used Maybelline mini Colorama in Ballerina for the base. Ballerina was really sheer so it didn't really add any colour to my nail. Then i used Essie Topless & Barefoot and a striping brush to create the V shaped french tips.
Finally I used Maybelline Colorama Top Coats in Cold as Ice to add that extra sparkle!

As usual, I got bored of it after a few days and decided to spice it up with OPI white shatter. I kinda did it in a rush so the V's aren't that straight.
OPI White Shatter

I think i might do more french mani's with shatter. What do you think?
