Milani Gems Gradient

Today I created a glitter gradient using the Happy Birthday dupe Milani Gems. You have to be extra careful with this one because it goes on thick. Use 1/4th of what you think you'll need.

To create the gradient, I gently dabbed the brush onto the nail. For the base I used WnW Black and China Glaze Devotion for the tip. Super fast and super easy!

Barielle Elle's Spell Swatch

Are you ready for another flakie? I know I am. I'm loving Elle's Spell from the Holiday Hustle Collection. I had to drive out of the way to pick her up but it was totally worth it. It's a gorgeous red flakie in a red base. Since I've been wearing a lot of Holiday mani's, I decided to switch things up a bit and layer it over purple. It really brought out the intensity of the flakes and sorta reminds me of OPI Merry Midnight, but much brighter.

Layered over Hard Candy Purple (sorry i don't have the name, it was on the package)

Isn't it beautiful! I purchased this polish from ULTA for $6. Woo hoo, what a steal!Thanks for stopping by :)

I remember when I was a little girl in class and we would make red paper stockings with silver glitter. I tried to capture the same effect on my nails. To start I used Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in Racin' Red (it's more red in real life) and Wet n' Wild White. I topped it off with Kiss silver glitter.

Hello dear Readers! I hope you're having a great weekend so far. Today I wanted to share more Holiday nails. I know black and white are not your traditional Holiday colors, but I think it's still pretty festive.


Carol of the Bells is one of my favorite Christmas songs and inspired this mani. For stamping I used China Glaze Hi-Tek & Color Club Where's the Soiree. I filled in the bells with China Glaze 5 Golden Rings, then topped it off with a couple of rhinestones and Milani Jewel Fx Gold glitter.
