Simple Holiday Nails (For Those Of Us Who Don't Have 6 hands)

So this year I had high hopes for doing a festive holiday nail that I would proudly flash about as we made our way around to holiday parties,  but after 4 failed attempts I had just had it.  In a huff, I threw on NYC in Madison Ave. and grumpily called it Festivious!  The next morning, however I decided that I would attempt at least one last time to do something a little extra,  so I decided to this.  All in all, it kind of reminds me of something that might be titled Berries in the Snow or Sassy Mrs. Claus, but since this idea really isn't that hard or original or even ingenious, I decided to forgo a witty name, other than call it: A Simple Holiday Nail: For Those of Us Who Don't Have 6 Hands).  :)

NYC polish in Madison Avenue, Sally Girl Loose Glitter in Pearly White



I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, and want to thank everyone who follows my blog and takes the time to chat with me on my blog, your blog & on Twitter! I really blog for the sake of meeting other beauty obsessed girls like myself, so thank you for making this so enjoyable!  I have met some very kind and talented girls and I will be doing a featured blog post soon to share with everyone!

Much Love!
Angie
Products & Application
1 coat of basecoat
2 coats of NYC In a New York Minute polish in Madison Avenue (Found at Target, Walmart and Drugstores, approx. $1.72)
1 coat of Seche Vite on entire nail, let it dry.
Recoat only tips with top coat & then sprinkle with Sally Girl glitter.  Let it dry for a minute then run hand under water to remove excess glitter.
Top with 1-2 coats of topcoat (one that you don't care much about since any loose glitter could get inside it - so don't use your favorite!)
