The One With the First Christmas-y Manicure
9:00:00 AMGood Morning Polished World! I am so sorry that I have been gone for so long, but work really took over my life. As you know, I work in the healthcare industry and we just are going through a rocky patch. I'm trying to keep my life as sane as possible by doing the things I enjoy, but that seems to be more baking than nail painting. Doesn't help that my nails are so dry from the constant hand washing and it now being winter that I've suffered many breaks and right when my nails are long again, they snap.
Regardless of all of this, I am determined to bring you all Christmas manicures throughout the month of December. Similarly to my promise of the Halloween Manicures in October. I did start sooner with another Christmas design, but it was a complete failure and I'm deciding not to share them with you. So we are jumping right to my second design of the season, a fun simple dotticure using one of my favorite reds.
Let's take a look!
Isn't this red Morgan Taylor polish to die for? It is by far one of my favorite red polishes, and if you know me, I'm not a huge red fan. This color doesn't make my nails look nubby like other reds. It's more muted and vampy, which is why I think I love it. It applies perfectly in two coats, and I'm sure you're going to see it a lot more this month.
Colors Used:
- Morgan Taylor - All Tango-ed Up
- ILNP - Christmas Cookie
- Zoya - Tomoko
For my accent, I used ILNP Christmas Cookie, but unfortunately you can't see the gorgeous glitter in it because it's hidden under all those dots. I think I might have to use it for a holly manicure in the next few days. That would really make the glitters pop. Regardless, it's a gorgeous polish which works well under those fun dots.
What do you think? Fan of this manicure?
Until next time, <3!
