Christmas Sweater Nail Art v 2.0
Morning lacquer lovers, Short post today because I woke up super late and I have to get ready for work today!
So my nail art today is my version 2.0 of cute Christmas sweater nail art. For my base colors I used Zoya Zusa and Butter London Henley Regatta, and for the stamping Revlon White On.
After using these colors all I had to do was simply top coat to finish off this nail art.
Sorry the post was so short today guys running low on time :) see you again tomorrow thanks for stopping by!

Santa Suit Nail Art
Hey again Lacquer Lovers! Hope you are having a splendid day and that your December is going swimmingly so far. As it has officially been December for five whole days I am completely comfortable with going full steam ahead with Christmas and Holiday themed nails so this should be fun!
I was inspired for this nail art by one of my favorite red polishes Mamba by Color Club. It's just the perfect red for Santa in my opinion so I automatically associated it with little Santa suits :)
The two base colors I used for this nail art are of course Mamba by Color Club, and Chyna by Zoya which is a wonderful red pixie dust glitter it's seriously fabulous you should try it. I made sure I base coated well as the polishes are highly pigmented and I don't want more staining on my nail beds. I then applied Mamba to my index, middle, and pinkie fingers, and applied Chyna to my ring finger and thumb and allowed to dry completely. I used two coats of each polish on each nail to even things out and make the color as bold as possible.
I then used Sally Hansen White On and MoYou London Stamping plate 03 from the Festive collection to stamp the white Candy stripes onto the thumb and ring finger. I also Used White on to paint the Santa Suit fur down the middle of the other nails, and allowed these white areas to dry.
All that was left was to use Kiss nail art paint to outline and draw in the suit details and add some silver to the candy stripes for a little more visual interest and then of course top coat!
Hope you enjoyed my Santa Suit nail art today guys! I appreciate you stopping by and hope you stop by again tomorrow for more nail art!!

Christmas Tree Nail Art
Happy third day of December, and my Birthday Eve Lacquer Lovers! I hope you are all well on this fine day (its kind of raining here but whatevs).
Today I have some itty bitty Christmas Tree nail art for you. This nail art is completely inspired by the polishes in the background and how they look like a snowy winters day when layered on top of one another.
For my base colors to create that snowy winters day atmosphere for this nail art I painted two coats of China Glaze Capacity to see beyond (blue) and allowed it to fully dry. I then layered one thin coat of China Glaze The Outer Edge (white glitter flecks in a clear base) which I also allowed to dry completely and then added a thin coat of a quick dry nail polish.
To create the tree shapes I used striping tape to create triangle patterns on the nails which I painted in with OPI Christmas Gone Plaid. All that was left was to outline the trees, add accents (kiss nail art silver paint and OPI Make him mine) and affix the star embellishments.
Hope you enjoyed this nail art post today guys! Let me know what you think in the comments and have a wonderful December!
See you next time!

Christmas Light nail art
Heyo Lacquer Lovers. How are you all today? I'm pretty well today I have another day off so we shall see what today brings :)
Today I have some Holiday Spirited nail art for you in the form of strands of Christmas lights! The lights on peoples houses are always one of my favorite parts of Christmas. I love walking around and seeing them with my boyfriend it just somehow gives a sense of peace and wonderment to the whole season, especially if there is snow :)
I painted my nails a base of Essie Licorice a cream black so that the other background colors would stand out more than they would on their own. I then layered on one coat each of piCture pOlish Aurora and Sally Hansen Seanic. I wanted the nails to be dark like nighttime as a backing for this nail art, but not so dark as to be just plain black. I feel that the colors I chose give a luminous quality to the background that lights would do in real life :)
Next all I did was take my kiss nail art paint and paint a wavy line through the middle of each nail trying to make it at least sort of line up from nail to nail, it doesn't have to be perfect just do your best! Next come the embellishments. I used teardrop or leaf shape embellishments which came in a wheel from a seller on amazon.ca. I simply affixed four to five embellishments per nail alternating top and bottom along the wavy lines I had painted in the middle of the nails. To affix embellishments simply use a thin coat of non quick dry polish and press the embellishments down gently into the unset top coat.
To finish up the nail art use your favorite top coat to seal it all together when it is completely dry which may take a few more moments than longer when affixing embellishments to make sure they are secure. Personally I use Sally Hansen or Revlon top coats as they do not drag as much in my experience, nor have they shrunk in my experience.
Well that's it for today guys! Hope you enjoyed my Christmas light nail art and I hope you come back again tomorrow to see what else is in store:)

Happy December!!

Christmas wrapping paper inspired nail lart
Hey lacquer lovers! Feeling a lot better today rest wise than yesterday but then again it is my day off and I actually got to catch up on my sleep that I was deprived of yesterday. ANYWAY moving on to my nail art today :)
So things got a little wrapping paper inspired today and it was all based around this lovely blue color by L'Oreal called jet set to Paris which is a lovely cream blue. I then added some sparkle with another L'Oreal polish called The True Gold, which is a gold glitter top coat from "The magic top coats" collection from L'Oreal. My favorite wrapping papers have shimmer or some sort of light reflecting attributes plus you might just know by now how much I love glitter in general so ....yea...I had to glitter it up at least a little.
When those colors were dry I then went in with my MoYou festive collection stamping plate 03 and used a snowflake and line/ dot image to place diagonally on each of the nails. The only thing I did to finish up this nail art was to top coat and then quite honestly I almost directly went to bed. I can't believe I ran a whole day from 4:30 am to 1:30 am on two hours of sleep..ugh haha.
Anyway guys thanks so much for stopping by today, it's always lovely to see you. Hope to see you again tomorrow my lacquer lovers!
Happy December!
