Christmas Sweater Manicure

Posted on December 4, 2016 by admin

December is here so it is time for some Christmas themed manicures.

Products used:
Fresh Paint – Sandy Toes
Born Pretty Store BP-L018
Rica – Whiteout
Seche Vite
Pearl rhinestone

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.

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.

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.

Swatch: China Glaze Tip Your Hat

Sharing a swatch of Tip Your Hat from China Glaze. Tip Your Hat is a crème red polish. The formula was great. I had no issues with application. I did only one coat and topped it off with Seche Vite.

It stamps well over light colors but not so great over black. Overall, it is a nice red to have in your collection.

Essence Colour & Go – Walk Of Fame (34) & Born Pretty Store BP-11

Sharing a swatch of Essence Walk of Fame. I purchased this polish at Ulta. Walk of Fame is a purple gray cream polish that depending on the light might even look brown. I applied two coats. I had no issues with the formula. I applied Seche Vite top coat.

I purchased from Born Pretty Store stamping plate BP-11. I decided to use this plate stamping with Pure Ice Silver Mercedes. Images transferred without any issues. Great plate to have to create those watermarble designs.
