Christmas Manicures

Here are some manicures i have sported during my Christmas Holidays.

Mani #1
applied this mani on Dec 23 pics were taken 1 day (Dec 26) after Christmas so they have some chips and wear.

index finger was a quick fix on christmas day, like my ring finger the best 

close up of pinky...love this

will do this design again but not with red christmas mani

i did a quick mani before heading to my brother and gf house and didn't have time to redo for Christmas Day.  i'm not thrilled with this mani, i should have stuck with my design on the pinky finger (apply base coat of Avon French Tip White and add the  red stripes) but i wanted to use my new green stripe brush.  Also i was experimenting with application.  Applied the purple onto the base color, thinking that the chi was a winecolor and then i just went with it cause i didn't have time to redo.

Tomorrow night my computer is going to the IT guy for a new hard drive, but I will be busy packing for my week long trip to my parents house in Alberta. I fly out on Wed and arrive back to Saskatoon the following Wed. I will try to upload some pics and show everyone my xmas designs. The one i'm sporting now is pretty, subtle and not easy to photography, i will take pics tomorrow morning after shower cleanup & then i can upload more blog-worthy pictures.  In the mean time this is a design that i did 5 days ago.  This was a day after my soccer (i'm goalie so i wear the goalie gloves)  I used Sally Hansen Mega Shine Extended Wear Top Coat, which i'm not impressed with yet, it dries to the touch but then it dents very easily.
