Hello,
I began my doing a simple red glitter french tip, and underlined that with some gold glitter. After that I used a dotting tool and some brown nail polish to draw a ginger bread man and add his decor. I then drew some holly on the thumbs and added my top coat. It is very simple, fun, festive and super simple. I hope you enjoy it!

Products used:
The Color Workshop base coat
Sally Hansen Red carpet
KleanColor Gold
La Colors Gold Glitter
Maybelline Walnut
La Colors white
La Colors green

Passion Purple Manicure

So, after I did those Anti - Cupcake nails, I used a purple in those. Purple fairy by Klean Color and I instantly remembered why i bought that color. It was an amazing purple. So, I instantly thought of a slanted french tip. Call me crazy, I decided to do my nails for the weekend and came up with this design. I absolutely loved it and was sad when it chipped a few days later. I really wanted to keep it on. I mean, i could always redo it....but I have other polishes to use too haha. After I finished the look, I decided it needed a little something extra and added a konad design. So , all in all it was my favorite manicure yet, and probably cuz it was all purple.

Seche Clear- BaseCoat

LA Colors - Black
Seche Vite - Top Coat

Also Used:
Dotting Tool
