Christmas Tree & Presents

Christmas Tree & Presents!


From left to right: China Glaze in Icicle; China Glaze in Mistletoe Kisses; Salon Perfect Nail Art Liner in Red; Salon Perfect Nail Art Liner in Gold





I began with Icicle from the China Glaze 2011 Holiday Collection. This is a silver foil polish and one of the nicest silvers I've seen. The shimmer in the formula makes this polish different and nicer than all other silvers. It leaves a beautiful shine and metallic finish.








Then I made a Christmas tree on my ring finger using Mistletoe Kisses (reviewed on a previous post). I decorated the tree using Salon Perfect Nail Art Liners. I bought these liners at Walmart for $2.97 and they work great and are also very easy to use.






To finish off the look I made bows on my middle finger and thumb. I loved Edith's previous post and I was dying to try it myself!

China Glaze - Mrs. Claus

Mrs. Claus



This fantastic nail polish is from the China Glaze 2010 Holiday Collection. It is very unique because it is jelly-like opposed to normal nail polish. This polish requires 2-3 coats (I applied 2). It is a red with a slight hint of pink tint with silver glitters (unfortunately, the red tint covers the silver as you apply a couple of layers). I love this polish but I wish it were a true red since it is supposed to be a holiday color.

China Glaze - Mistletoe Kisses

Mistletoe Kisses



This polish is from China Glaze's 2010 Holiday Collection. I love this polish because you get an even finish with only two coats; I also love the fact that it is green with a bit of silver undertones, which makes it perfect for the holiday season.

Revlon Silver Screen & Sinful Colors Queen of Beauty

Silver Winter Wonderland Nails


Sinful Colors Queen of Beauty is a clear base polish packed with fine silver glitter. I used about 3 coats of this polish. I only added it to my ring finger to give it some sparkle. What I like about this polish is that it distributes the glitter evenly. This polish retails for $1.99.


Revlon Silver Screen is literally liquid metal on your nails and I love it! It's a metallic polish with a slight blue tint and fine shimmer. It does leave brush strokes so you have to be careful when applying it. I used 3 coats to get an even finish.

China Glaze - Party Hearty


China Glaze - Party Hearty

This polish is from the 2010 holiday collection. It has the perfect combination of holiday colors.



As you can see this polish goes on clear (it has no tint to it). I had to do several coats to get this finish. I suggest using a light silver as a base color to get a nicer finish, it will blend in really well with the tiny silver glitters and enhance the red and green.
