Christmas Mani & heads up!

Hello, lovely readers!! How was everyone's holidays?? Hope they went well:] I had these little chevron tips for Christmas; I'd been frankening till really late and when I realized what time it was, I had such little time to do anything fancy. So these were easy and festive and totally not perfect, but that's okay! Because I liked them and I even got a few compliments:]

2 coats of Zoya Luna; tips in LA Splash Oceans Fairy & Sally Hansen Red Carpet.

Okay, now.. I have a few little announcements :]

1. My sister and I will be opening up our Etsy shop soon after the new year, so keep an eye out for that! There will be scarves, jewelry, anddddddddd my frankens!!  So I'm really excited about that.

2. I'll be having a little giveaway soon, smaller than my first one. I'm thinking about doing a Name My Frankens contest, I think that would be fun. And the names I like the most can win the polishes!

3. A quick happy birthday to my boyfrannnnn. <3 

4. I'll be away till the New Year starting tomorrow, so I'll have scheduled posts up!!

5. Here's one of the frankens that will be in the Etsy shop. I call it Hazards of Love [after the Decemberists' album of the same name!]:

Christmas Eve nails

It's a two for one post today!! Yay! Plus some nail art... Yeah, who knew?? Haha, all the AMAZING holiday manis I've seen other ladies post recently inspired me to mix up my manis a little. So for Christmas Eve, I have on Santa hats!

Aren't they cute?? They make me happy, even though they're sooo far from perfect. I used a coat of NOPI Make a Commet-ment, then dotted the hats on with NOPI Orna-ment for Each Other and Sally Hansen Whirlwind White. I also had on Lynnderella's Happy Holo-daze! a few days ago:

Two coats over Wet n Wild Black Creme

Blurred a bit for that holo glitter

Everything everyone's saying about this is true: it's a bajillion times more amazing version of Party Hearty. lovelovelove it.

What are you all wearing for the holidays??

Christmas Skittles!

Hello all!! I'm sorry if I'm not too wordy today, I have 2 finals tomorrow and then a final and term paper on Thursday. So not too much fun :/ But then it's break! Yay! I'm very excited. I need to not do anything haha. Anyway, I had on 2 coats of Emerald Sparkle, aka one of my absolute top polishes. It's so freaking PRETTY. Plus, green and glitter, so I'm sold.

Drooooooooooooool.

Then I got pretty excited and decided to do some nail art. Which doesn't usually happen with me, I've been very layering, frankening lately. But when I first started getting into nail polish, I would stamp EVERY manicure I had on. Nothing was safe from my MASH plates. So I whipped those out again and got this:

Stripes: Nfu Oh 61

Mistletoe: Sally Hansen Whirlwind White, then stamped over it with Nfu Oh 61, then dotted on the berries with China Glaze Ring in the Red

Santa Hat: dotted a triangle of the SH white, then dotted on China Glaze Poinsettia, then CG Ring in the Red, then made the little ball at the top and the lining by dotting on the SH white.

It wasn't really hard, though I think I like the Santa hats most:] I'll probably do this exact mani for Christmas day haha. Plus, it was a hit with my housemates! 

First Christmas Mani!!

Hi! I have my very first Christmas-themed nails of the year:] I haven't gotten into the holiday spirit yet, I think it's because I've been pretty sick for a while, on top of crazy school stuff. But yesterday, my housemates & I had a Secret Santa get together, so I had to do festive nails!

my thumb was my favorite, so I had to include it:]

Likey?? I have on 2 coats of Orly Glitz & Glamour, then I sponged on China Glaze Emerald Sparkle, then sponged on Love & Beauty Red [the chunky glitter]. These were a hit with my housemates, but I can't wait to show them [& you all!] my next Christmas mani:]
