Hello everyone! First of all, I hope you guys have a
wonderful Christmas or whatever holiday you may celebrate; spend time with
family and spread joy with the gifts you give. I know I said I’d post twice
before Christmas, but I have been busy and I just didn’t have time. I hope that’s
ok. Anyway, this last nail design has the potential to be two, but I put them together
to make the ultimate Santa nails! Here’s what you’ll need.
The polishes I used for this design were Sally Hansen’s
Insta-Dri shades in “Rapid Red” (#280) and “Sand Storm” (#113), Xtreme Wear
shades in “White On” (#300) and “Black Out” (#28), and Essie’s “Good as Gold”
(#941). I also used a nail dotter.
The first part of this design is Santa’s belt. I started
with a red base on my thumb and let that dry. Then I painted a white stripe
vertically down the middle of my nail. Next, I added a black, horizontal line in
the middle of my nail. Finally, using a gold polish I painted the square belt
buckle. Add a top coat and you have Santa’s belt!
The second design is Santa himself, which I did on my middle
finger nail. I stared with a tan base for his skin. Next, I painted a red
stripe by my cuticle for his hat (it doesn’t have to be perfect because you
will be adding a white trim to it). Using a dotter and the white polish I added
the trim to his hat. I also used white to paint his beard. Finally, I dotted on
two black eyes and a red nose. Add a top coat and you have an adorable Santa!
Thank you guys for looking at all my designs from this
month; I truly appreciate it. The video tutorial for these nails are up right now, so make sure you check that out here. I have a snowflake design coming before the New
Year and also a December favorites, so I guess I’ll see you then. BYYEEE
