Current Nails Dec 24 2011 - Candy Cane Snowflake Nails (Inspired by Cutepolish and BeautyCakez's videos)


These nails are perfect for the holidays.

All you need is a pretty red nail polish and a white nail striper or a nail art brush.

Since all you need to do is draw straight lines, these nails are VERY simple :D

I decided to not do elaborate snowflakes (:  


I only applied one coat of the Rouge by American Apparel because it is very pigmented and I only need it to sit as a backdrop for the Red Velvet by ELF from the holiday gift set.

Since the ELF nail polish was only 50 cents + shipping, I did not expect it to be very opaque.

Perhaps next time, I will try to swatch it alone (:

I tried to do a full set of candy cane nails but I didn't like the results of the first nail (thumb), so I decided to do accent candy cane nails.

Candy Cane Nail tutorials that give WAY better results than mine does :P
