"Tree Lighting" Christmas Nail Art

Hi friends! Today's Christmas themed nail art is more traditional than my previous design and uses nail polishes from my favorite China Glaze Holiday Joy Collection. Over the last couple of weeks, I've seen a lot of Christmas-y manicures, and I couldn't help but be inspired by them. This "Tree Lighting" nail art is a combination of a few designs I've come across, with a couple of personal touches to give it my own spin. Hope you like my take on it!

You guys already know how much I love this Holiday Joy nail lacquer Collection from China Glaze and the colors I'm using for today's nail look are some of my favorites. Christmas isn't complete without a festive, glittery nail art and this collection has everything you need to dress up your fingertips for the season's festivities! Get this entire collection or individual polishes for a fraction of its cost from my China Glaze supplier: HBwigs.com

Top Row:

• Glitter All The Way; PURE JOY (used here); Champagne Kisses; WINTER HOLLY (used here); Red Satin; With Love

Bottom Row:

• Merry Berry; CRANBERRY SPLASH (used here); Glistening Snow; Blue Bells Ring; Angel Wings; Pizzazz 

Not ready for Nail Art? -- Show off your Xmas spirit with red and green glitter nails! On my right hand, I'm wearing 1 coat of Pure Joy (chunky red / gold glitter) over Cranberry Splash (dark red shimmer) and 2 coats of Winter Holly (green glitter) on my thumb accent nail.
