OPI Alpine Snow & Ulta-mate Berry Beautiful
Konad M12 (Candy cane), M14 (Lollipop), & M59 (Bow)
Good day! I finally finished up this manicure which I started Friday (I think)... I find it quite adorable! (Except the thumb. It's too busy. I kinda hate it) There's a bow on every nail! I bet this would be cute with pink!
By the way, I'm posting pictures for each step to show you how much of a difference each element adds to the design :)
I painted 3 nails in white (OPI Alpine Snow) and 1 nail in red (OPI Ulta-mate Berry Beautiful) to mix things up a little! I stamped the bow (with Konad Special Polish) on an angle so it would fit on my nail. To make the other designs cohesive, they were stamped on an angle as well. I didn't want my nails to be monotonous so I used 2 different candy stamps. After the stamping, I added a red tip to the white nails.
And to finish off the manicure, I painted the silver stripe with a Stripe Rite.I hope you all enjoy it!
This is really cute!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely gorgeous! And so cute, too.
ReplyDeleteI love these nails! Thanks for breaking down the steps :)
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the full red nail, it's a striking contrast next to the white ones, I am getting all festive looking at the Christmas nails, may have to try a Christmas Mani too. Great pictures and gorgeous mani xx
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this is perfect!!! I LOVE the huge bow!! I want! and the lollipop is adorable. What exactly is Stripe Rite? I've never heard of it. Can I buy it at any old drugstore, or is it something special? I LOVE how neat and tidy your stripe looks!
ReplyDeleteSo cute!! I love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you all for the nice comments :)
ReplyDeleteBrooke- Stripe Rites are polishes for making stripes! I get mine at Sally's Beauty. I've never seen them at drugstores. Here is a link:

Oh, this is so cute! Well done, sweetie! =)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I really love this. I want to copy this one =))))
ReplyDeleteFabulous mani!!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! That goes without saying. I think you're becoming an inspiration to me for my foray into nail art. I may go to my Sally's and pick up a few Stripe Rites myself.
ReplyDeleteNihrida- Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteTrincess- Copy away! Just don't copy my thumb... it's so ugly, to me at least :( Haha
Arie- Thank you :)
Silver Diva- Thanks! I'm so glad when people like my nails! Stripe Rites are awesome! Make sure you check that they aren't dried out (at Sally's)... I've found some bottles with hardened polish before.
Gorgeous and utterly cute manicure. A perfect Christmas manicure. Have a very Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteEven though Christmas is over, your nails still made me smile.. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute!
I love your designs. They aren't random, too busy or over the top but they are very cohesive and well planned. I don't think that degree is going unused completely. ;o) I'm working my way up to the present after finding your blog today and am really looking forward to the other pretties yet in store in the next 18 months worth of posts.
