For the manicure I started out with a base of Nicole by OPI I Sea You and Raise You from the CVS exclusives released this fall. I will be showing full swatches in a day or two. For the stamping I used Bundle Monster plate BM-323 and Essence nail art stampy polish in Stamp Me! White...
Did I mention it matches one of my favorite wrapping papers...
To add a little sparkle to the tips I dabbed on a bit of glitter using Shimmer Julia. I really like the little blue and iridescent glitter sparkle...
This is the first time I've used the Essence stampy polish and I really like it. The images turned out crisp and bright. Too bad it is such a tiny bottle, I'm going to need a lot more...
I hope you like this manicure! I'm looking forward to more snowflakes in the near future :)

ReplyDeleteLove love love this mani! Really wintery :-)
ReplyDeletePerfect for winter I love it :D as obviously girls above me do too ^_^
ReplyDeleteLove it! Where do you get your Essence np? I have the HARDEST time finding them. I can get their basic np and some cosmetics at Ulta, but none of the stamping. I also want to try their top coat out, it's in a black bottle and it's supposed to be amazing.
ReplyDeleteI've been hemhawing for a while about getting some stamps.. I got that little cheapo set from Sally's, it's a nice little introduction into stamping. This mani sealed the deal--just ordered BM sets I've been coveting! :)
OMG I totally didn't realize that stamp could be used as snowflakes...duh Liz!
ReplyDeleteI love it!
Wintery manis are so pretty! your stamping is great, and I like very much the blue you chose for the base!
ReplyDeletenot only beautifully done, but its also just in time - tonight we had a bit of snowing :) i'll be looking forward to more snowy designs ^^
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!! I love the touch of glitter on the tips. I have two snowflake stamps that I can't wait to use!
ReplyDeleteLove this! The glitter is a nice touch. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much ladies! I just love winter manicures as well! I'm so glad you enjoyed this one :)
ReplyDelete@Andrea, I got the stampy polish at local NW chain, Fred Meyer. Around here they stock more Essence products than Ulta, which I find strange.
@Elizabeth, I'm curious, what do you see in this stamp pattern? All I see are snowflakes :)
Love this so much~!! It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas~!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for making it look so beautiful..
xoxo
