Hello everyone! Christmas is fast approaching and I couldn’t
avoid doing a snowman nail design. I also got some cute polishes from my
friends for Christmas and I know I have some more in my stocking, so make sure
you check my nail polish inventory sometime after Christmas. Anyway, here’s
what you’ll need.
The polishes I used for this design were Sally Hansen’s
Insta-Dri shades in “Blue-Away” (#425), “Pronto Purple” (#360), and “Man-go
Team!” (#30), Xtreme Wear shades in “Black Out” (#28) and “White On” (#300),
Revlon’s “Stunning” (#340), and Blackheart Beauty’s Sky Blue Polish from Hot Topic. A nail
dotter and sponge would also be useful.
Since this is a gradient design, you want to start with a
white base coat and let that dry. Next, paint a stripe of the darker blue on
the sponge, followed by a stripe of light blue right under it, and finally a
stripe of white. Pat the sponge onto your nail with the dark blue by your cuticle.
You may have to do this two or three times to make it opaque. After this dried, I decided
I would add a snowman to just my ring finger nail (you can do multiple if you
want or choose a different finger). I used white polish and a dotter to make the three parts of the snowman. I
used to smaller dotter to add black eyes, a coal mouth, buttons, a carrot nose,
and a purple hat/scarf. For the final touch, I put a glitter polish over all my
nails.
That’s it! I have 2 more designs left, which I think I may
combine into one, but I’ll still post twice before Christmas, so don’t worry. A
video will go up tomorrow, so when that shows up click here. See you soon!
BYYEEE
