Golden Christmas Nail Art

Hi everyone! This is a quick post to show you what I have on my nails for Christmas. I did something very simple and easy this year. This is also the theme of this week's STNChallenge for Winter Nails.

A free hand decorated Christmas tree on my accent nail and a stamped Merry Christmas message on the thumb. Couldn't strain my neck too much so opted out of doing anything that required more than 5 minutes to do.

I chose a golden polish called Golden Glow from Envy Polishes as the base. This is a translucent polish and I used three coats to get the shimmery golden base.

For the Christmas tree I used KB Shimmer Green Hex and Glam. This is a lovely green polish with different sized silver hex shaped glitter.

For the decorations I used the small half spherical beads from Born Pretty Store (use coupon code HPG10 to get 10% off - BPS ships worldwide and has some really cool nail art and other makeup products)

Winter Nail Art Tutorial - How To Make A Snowman

Hi friends, finally the Delhi winters have started playing peek-a-boo. The day is still quite hot but the mornings and evenings have started feeling cold. I have taken out my woolens and actual dread the extreme weather. I am a spring person completely (unless its complete snow-capped mountain kind of winters!)

But for all of those out there who not only enjoy winters but wait for it eagerly here is a nail art I did last weekend.

Mr. Snowman has come visiting on my nails!

As part of a winter challenge for nail art in the STNChallenge group the theme for this week was snowman and so I did this nail art. A few of my friends at work actually noticed and appreciated my work, so yay! It always feel awesome to get appreciation in person. I hope you all will like it too. Do leave your comments to let  me know.


And I also did a quick tutorial for how to make a snowman, step-by-step pictorial to help you create a simple cute looking snowman on your nails.

I used two gorgeous polishes for the base, one is from a brand called Envy and the other is from Health & Glow. Both these are only available in Mumbai and my sister got these for me on a trip to the city. These are awesome polishes and cost only Rs 50! How I wish we had such good value-for-money brands in Delhi.

Christmas Nail Art - Snowman Tutorial

Hi friends, I'm back with another quick nail art that you can do on your nails for Christmas, its Snowman time!

I used a silver glitter nail paint that I will review soon. The accent nail has a little snowman which I created using a toothpick. On the rest of my nails I have done stamping using the MoYou London Kitty Plate (review coming up sometime this week). And for the ground of snow I used the polish brush directly and dabbed it on instead of brushing it to create the snowy effect.

Now here is the fun part - the breakup of our cute little snowman. You can follow the step by step tutorial below to create your own snowman in a matter of minutes. Remember a toothpick is all that you need. If you do have brushes or nail art dotting tool then go ahead and use that.

I chose a mint and pink color as my base and topped it with a purple to add some depth.

Begin by painting your nails in a base color.
