Holly-day Mani Season!

Hello Lacquer Luvers! I hope that you all are having a lovely weekend. Yesterday I was able to go mail my Secret Santa her gift package as well as Lindsey's from my 50 Follower Giveaway. I really enjoy gift giving and it has really gotten me into the holiday spirit! Tonight we will be decorating our Christmas tree and baking some chocolate chip cookies, I can't wait! I love stringing lights, hanging ornaments and the smell of freshly baked cookies...so fun! With the holiday season here, I want to share with you all a few festive mani's throughout the month and today's nails are decked out in polishes from China Glaze's Seasonal Sparkle gift set. I was lucky enough to win this set in Captivating Claws' 50 Follower Giveaway, thank you Jodi! =)



I began today's mani with a coat of OPI Nail Envy & two coats of China Glaze Holly-day. Holly-day is Christmas green cream perfection. The formula applied very smoothly and was completely opaque in just two thin coats. I am so in love with this green! For nail art I used Sally Hansen's Color Quick Gold Chrome pen to stamp a jingle bell from BundleMonster's BM-223 image plate onto my ring finger. I used a sponge-tipped eyeshadow applicator to sparkle up my tips using China Glaze Twinkle Lights. Twinkle Lights is a clear base polish full of gold, red, and green glitter...very festive and sparkly! This mani was topped off with fast dry top coat by Seche Vite.



Overall, I really like how this mani came out. It really has me in the mood to have fun with my son tonight as we decorate the tree and bake cookies! As always, I hope you Lacquer Luvers have enjoyed this post and I look forward to showing you more holiday nails using polishes from this season's collections, xo!
