Beauty Tips for Women: Mistletoe Manicure

Recently I shared a swatch of Venique Lighten Up Ebenezer, a gold glitter polish that I have fallen in love with.  I decided to use it for my Christmas manicure.  The thought of mistletoe came to mind.

Here are the products I used to make this manicure: Nail Art Polish Beauty tips for Women 512
Venique – Wingtip White
Venique – Lighten Up Ebenezer
Maybelline – Bold Gold
Striper – Green
Seche Vite
Rhinestones

For the middle and ring finger I did one coat of Bold Gold then placed two coats of Lighten Up Ebenezer over that.  Used the rhinestone and green striper to make the mistletoe. Rest of the fingers got two coats of Wingtip White.  I tried to do a glitter gradient using Lighten Up Ebenezer.  This was my first attempt at a glitter gradient and it came out ok.  I have to practice the technique.
