I thought it was time I made an effort with my nails as i've just been painting them one colour recently and I wish I had the time to be creative with them more often. Earlier this year I posted these wintery nails and I thought i'd do another one this year.
I was inspired by the snow we've had recently and also Alice's Frosty Nails which I thought were really cute. I used Eyeko Rain Polish as the base, OPI Pearl's Night Out for the 'snow' and NYC Starry Silver Glitter to give the snow a bit of sparkle.
If there was any Eyeko polish i'd recommend it would definitely be Rain Polish, I always find myself wearing it as it's easy to apply and is such a gorgeous colour. This is the first time i've used the OPI polish as I don't really like wearing it on it's own. I thought it made a really nice effect rather than using a plain white polish. It took a few coats to make it noticeable but OPI polishes are really easy to apply and fast drying so it wasn't a problem. I didn't use any special tools, I just used the brush from the polish to create the snow. The NYC polish was really cheap and the glitter is quite small and looks lovely on top of the OPI polish. The bigger bits of glitter make it look more quirky and remind me of Christmas lights.
This looks gorgeous :)

ReplyDeleteI am so boring & crap with my nails. I cant do anything/wear nail varnish to work, so that being 5/6 times a week, I really get out of the habbit of painting them. However having a few days off at xmas, I think I'm going to at least try (think about trying) to do something pretty to them xx
