Frostbite Nails

Counting down the days to Christmas! It's the most wonderful time of the year for me and what better way to start than some simple nail art. These were requested by my nieces who love the idea of snow. They have never seen snow and I have see it for just a few minutes when I was in Chicago recently. Now this is how we can seen them all the time.


It's really simple to achieve. Just your base colour which you can choose to be any colour of your choice. Here I am using two coats of a blue called Frostbite from China Glaze. Next I take a dotting tool and apply white dots on the nail edge to make the pile of snow on the ground. and then some random dots higher up to represent the falling snow. Change up the dotting tool sizes to get a more abstract snow pattern. I complete the look with one coat of NYC New Your Color Starry Silver Glitter.


Of course if you like, you can stop at the point of just the "snow" without the glitter but i love the glitter pieces bringing just a touch of bling to these simple frostbite nails. Stay tuned for more Christmas nail art!

Let’s start with what I do love about the palette. It’s simple black compact that has the same sleek look as the other Revlon photo-ready items. I find a highlighter, contour shade and blush in one palette is a great idea too. Having more blush colour in terms of quantity with smaller sections for the highlighter and contour makes perfect sense since I will use more of the blush anyway. The colours as they appear in the pan look perfectly coordinated to work with each other. You get a small brush with soft bristles in your kit to ensure you can just pop this in your bag and you’re off.  In the sunlight Now here is where it all goes downhill like Jack and Jill with their pail of water. Let’s start with the swatches which made me think twic

Marble Hearts: BCD Nail Art Challenge (Day 13)

Today's challenge utilizes the technique of dry water marbling to create your pattern. I'm doing a twist of it but doing a needle drag i.e using a needle or any fine point for just a smidgen of swirl to the colours used.
