Reindeer Nails


 Hello everyone! My 5th Christmas nail design, if you couldn’t tell by the title, is reindeer! I really like this design; it’s one of my favorites along with the Christmas trees. Here’s what you’ll need.

The polishes I used for this design were Sally Hansen’s Miracle Gel shade in “Game of Chromes” (#510), Xtreme Wear shades in “Black Out” (#28) and “White On” (#300), Insta-Dri shade in “Wined Up” (#350), and Essie’s “Mink Muffs” (#624). You will also need a nail dotter.

I started with a gold base coat and the top coat that goes along with the Miracle Gel polishes. After that dried, I used the medium brown color to make a semi-circle covering 1/3 of my nail with 2 ear shapes at the top. Using the same brown I drew antlers. Since the brush that comes with Essie polishes isn’t too thick I can use that brush for the antlers; no extra brushes needed. Next, using a dotter, I added two white dots for eyes and two smaller black dots for pupils. To complete the look, I added a large nose to each reindeer’s face. I made all the noses black except for one (their can only be one Rudolph). 

I hope you liked this design. There’s only 3 left before Christmas and then I’ll probably do solid colors for a bit lol. Also, make sure you’re checking my YouTube channel and Instagram. BYYEEE

Double Trouble: Sally Hansen Polish Reviews

Hello everyone and welcome to my double trouble review!! Today I will review two Sally Hansen polishes: Salon Manicure “Red My Lips” (#470) and Miracle Gel “Pink Tank” (#220).

Miracle Gel "Game of Chromes" Review

Hello everyone! I recently purchased another nail polish from Sally Hansen’s Miracle Gel collection called “Game of Chromes” (#510) and I thought I’d write a review for it today. Frist of all, the name is genius. Secondly, lol, the color is gorgeous. It is really shiny and when you move your fingers under the light it kind of looks like it switches between silver and gold, like a hologram or something. It is just a really nice color if you are looking for a solid nail design that isn't super boring. I also really liked the formula of the polish. It went on very smoothly (just like the others from the line did) and it was opaque with one coat. When I used the top coat (which you have to buy separately unless you get a kit and it’s expensive but whatever), it lasted a long time with no chips. It still isn’t chipped and I could keep it on, but I redo my nails every week lol. That is all for today, but you can check out my most recent YouTube video here, or look through...

Ombre, Lily Manicure

Hey guys! I know it's been a while, but I have had ZERO clue of what designs to do and I've been doing solid colors all summer. However, last night I decided to practice making my own nail stickers and they turned out super well. I went with two types of lilies, white lilies and purple/white lilies, and decided to put them on a two-toned ombre. For the "stickers" I started with a piece of parchment paper and a clear polish. With the polish I painted 10 rectangles which I would be painting my designs over. I ended up trimming my stickers down to size later so don't worry if the base is a bit too big. After about a minute I began painting my designs over top of the rectangles making sure they weren't too big for my nail beds. I looked at a picture of a lily for reference and then just went for it. I started with the white petals, added the center color, added thin green lines with a nail art brush for stems in the center and finally the brown dots on the ste...
