Blogmas Day 18: "Christmas Lights" Nail DIY

Today's Nail DIY is inspired by my favorite little Christmas tree. It is basically a French Manicure injected with a tiny bit of Christmas spice. I find this look very easy to wear, as it is mostly neutral. It adds just the right amount of festive cheer, while maintaining sophistication, and charm. Best of all, it is very easy. 

Step 1: Use a neutral nail color. My favorite is by collistar, 47 madreperla. It is literally my favorite color in the world. It is a neutral gloss with a pink under sheen, and pearl essence tint. 

You will then need a collection of nail polishes in vibrant colors. Silver is a nice one to add for its sparkling effect. 

You will also need a toothpick, plastic bag, and scissors.

Along the tips of the nail, dab tiny dots of nail polish in random order as you like. 

Voila! :)

Enjoy your festive nail. 

I also played with variations on dabbing the various colors. This look is more playful and fun.

Blogmas Day 12: Easy Holiday Nail

This Holiday Nail Idea is so quick and easy it doesn't even need directions.

All you will need is two nail colors of your choice. My personal favorite is, one gem tone offset by a sparkly silver. It is a nice contrast between fire and ice, and gives off a festive contradiction. 

Step 1: Paint entire nail with silver nail polish, and let dry.

Step 2: Paint (2nd Nail polish gem tone) over the silver one while leaving a silver border. Let dry. 

Step 3: Finish off with too coat.
