Monday Blues: Holo Snowflakes

Hello my lovelies! It's the last Monday before Christmas and I'm on holiday. Whatever you are celebrating this week, I wish you all to relax and be with your loved ones. Just the thought that today is the first day of two weeks of relaxation makes me happy. I'm doing a bit of cleaning and organizing today, so everything is ready for the holidays. Of course I had to take a break to write this post for you. It's no surprise that I created another snow themed manicure, but this time we've got holo glitter too!

This week, instead of stamping with white on blue I decided to switch it up and go the other way around. I chose a simple snowflake image from plate BP-01 from the Born Pretty Store and used A-england Tristam to stamp it. This polish is almost a one coater so I knew it would be perfect for stamping. There's a subtle holo effect to it but that doesn't quite show when you use it for stamping.

The polish I used as a base is OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, which is my current go to white. With a careful application you only have to use two coats, especially if your nails are short like mine. After stamping with Tristam I added a coat of a tiny holo glitter called Essence I Love Magic, which is a perfect dupe for China Glaze Fairy Dust. Check out that holo in direct light!

This has been my manicure for the weekend and I will probably remove it in a couple of days to do my Christmas manicure. But until then I will continue enjoying the holo. Hope you do too! Don't forget that you can check out the rest of the Monday Blues of this month by clicking the links below.
