Winter Holly Christmas Manicure

Posted on January 9, 2017 by admin

I am behind in posting this last Christmas manicure.

Products used:
China Glaze – Winter Holly
Born Pretty Store Celebration BPX-L008
Maybelline Bold Gold
Seche Vite

China Glaze Winter Holly is more of a glitter topper than an opaque polish. It has very fine glitter pieces and you do get a holographic effect. I started with one coat. To get it opaque, I sponged the polish on. I had to do this about 4 times.

I stamped the images from Born Pretty Store Celebration BPX-L008 plate using Maybelline Bold Gold. Sealed the manicure with Seche Vite.

Let It Snow Christmas Manicure

Here is another Christmas theme manicure.

Products used:
China Glaze – Define Good
China Glaze – Dancing & Prancing
Born Pretty Store Plate -01
Clear Jelly Stamper plate CjS C 03
Rica – Whiteout
Seche Vite

I started off with applying two coats of Define Good from China Glaze. This is a sultry shimmering red/burgundy polish, a great color for the holidays.

To add some bling, I applied one coat of Dancing & Prancing from China Glaze.

I used Born Pretty Store stamping plate 01 for the different snowflake and tree images. Stamped with Rica Whiteout.

For the phrase “let it snow”, I used Clear Jelly Stamper plate CjS C 03. Stamped with Rica Whiteout. Everything was sealed with Seche Vite.

I was very happy with the end results, a sparkling snowfall.

Holographic Christmas Manicure

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.

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.
