12 Days of Christmas Challenge: Minion Santa!
Hey all! Today's prompt is Santa of Elves. I was sure I wanted to paint Santa, but I did not really want a reaaal Santa. So I randomly start searching on Google when I stumbled upon Minion Santa! If you want to see some detailed pictures or know what polishes I used, then there is more after the jump.
For this mani, I was inspired by Nailstorming. I thought it was so cute and I just could not resist re-creating it.
Polishes used for this mani:
Sinful Colors - Snow me white
Catrice - Black to the Routes
Catrice - Birdy Reloaded!
Only You - Diabolique
Kiko - 328
Cadillacquer - Glowing Christmas
As always, make sure to check out some more Santas or Elves below. And let me know what you think in the comments!

12 Days of Christmas: Snowflakes
Another quick post! Today's theme of the Christmas Challenge is Snowflakes. I used this Youtube tutorial by IndigoNova1, make sure to check out her channel! Hers are way more beautiful, but I am quite pleased with mine too. No, I actually really love them. They came out waaaay better than I had expected, yay!
So I used Bourjois Blue Water as a base colour, I drew the snowflakes with a white polish: Only You White French and these nail art brushes from Born Pretty Store. After that I added some ILNP Matthew Peri glitter around the snowflakes and I topped it all with my all-time favourite topcoat: Essence Top Sealer.
You can buy your own I Love Nail Polish bottles here! Barbra just released a new collection: the New Year's Collection, so make sure to check it out!

12 Days of Christmas: Candy Canes
Today's challenge is... Candy Canes! Really excited about this one, because I used my first Essie EVER and because I used a superstunning indie Polish: Moon Shine by Forever Polished. The lovely Ashley from Forever Polished sent me a few of her gorgeous polishes and I will post a swatch every week, and that for FIVE WEEKS!
Alright, onto the Challenge! So today's Candy Canes and I was so happy with this theme. I wanted to do a candy cane pattern for so long, but I never got to it. So today was the perfect day!
As I already mentioned, I used Essie's Leading Lady on my thumb and my pinky. It's my first Essie and it didn't dissapoint me at all. Great application, great colour, quick drytime and I only needed two coats. Then for my index finger and my ring finger I used Only You - White French, H&M - Cherry and nail art brushes from Born Pretty Store. Then for my middle finger, I painted on a layer of Only You - White French and I topped it off with 2 coats of Forever Polished - Moon Shine.
Who of you likes candy canes? Everyone? Duh..
