Holographic Christmas Manicure

Posted on by

Here is another Christmas theme manicure.

Products used:
Fresh Paint – Splash of Cran
Born Pretty Store BPL-032
H&M – Space Race
Seche Vite

I started off with applying two coats of Splash of Cran from Fresh Paint. This is a deep red/burgundy polish. The formula was good. I sealed everything with Seche Vite. You can find Fresh Paint polish at Five Below stores.     beauty-tips-for-women-721

To continue with the Christmas theme, I decided to use Born Pretty Store stamping plate BPL-032. The design that caught my eye is on the upper right hand corner. I’m not sure what it is supposed to be but I liked it. It reminds me of the lights hanging on my tree.  beauty-tips-for-women-722

I stamped the image using Space Race from H&M. Space Race is an amazing holographic polish that stamps very well.

I applied Seche Vite to seal the design.  It is hard to capture the holographic effect in pictures.

I started off with applying two coats of Sandy Toes from Fresh Paint. This a bright, almost neon, red coral polish. The formula was good. You can find Fresh Paint polish at Five Below stores. I sealed everything with Seche Vite.  beauty-tips-for-women-718

I wanted to do a Christmas sweater look. I decided to use Born Pretty Store stamping plate BP-108. This plate has a cute array of Christmas style sweater patterns. Unfortunately, getting a clean image of this plate was challenging.  beauty-tips-for-women-719

I stamped the image using Whiteout from Rica. I applied Seche Vite to seal the design and while my nails were still wet, I applied the pearl rhinestones.  beauty-tips-for-women-720

Halloween Happy Pumpkin Manicure

Posted on by

My youngest kid wanted a Halloween manicure. The request was for a gray background and orange happy pumpkins.

Products used:
Essence Colour & Go – Grey-t To Be Here
Sally Hansen – Lightening
B.M.C. – Teepee Tipping
Bundle Monster – BM-H06

I started off by choosing a pumpkin image that would fit my kid’s nail. I found a cute pumpkin on plate BM-H06. I made decals of the pumpkin using Teepee Tipping to get the orange and for the yellow color to mouth and eyes, Lightening.  beauty-tips-for-women-716

Once I had a set of decals made, I got the nails ready with base coat and one coat of Gey-t To Be Here. Waited for the polish to dry and then applied the pumpkin decals and sealed with Seche Vite.
