Candy Cane Nail Art

Hi everybody!

I have another Christmas mani to share with you all! I didn't think I'd do another but as soon as I saw this design by banicured_ on Instagram I knew I just had to recreate it because it was so awesome.

In her design, Bana used acrylic paint whereas I just used normal polish as I didn't have paint and frankly couldn't be bothered buying any, so mine isn't as good as hers but I think I did a pretty awesome job despite that.

I used Sally Hansen's White On and Black Out and Ulta3's Scarlet. I had to neaten up the lines a lot and make them thinner but thank to Seche Vite Top Coat you can't even tell where the extra polish is.


I'm pretty proud of it! I love candy canes and this mani makes me wish I had some. I do sor of wish I'd done the stripes diagonal though because I feel like that's more fitting to a real candy cane, but it still looks pretty cool!

Thanks for reading!

- Melissa.

Christmas Nails

Hello everyone!

Today I have some Christmas themed nails to share with you! Let me start off by saying that I'm not someone who gets really into Christmas; it's just not my thing. So these nails are out of my comfort zone. I'm also not someone who gets into doing holiday or special event themed nails like Easter or Halloween (as you've probably noticed) so appreciate these nails because I doubt I'll do another this year.

I used the following polishes:
Gold's Night Out - Maybelline Color Show Sequins Collection
Scarlet - Ulta3
Don't Mess With OPI - OPI




It's nothing spectacular but it's definitely a Christmassy mani. Let me know what you think and whether you'd like to see me do another Christmas mani! I may or may not do another one, but we'll see!
