Last week I randomly walked out of my front door for something and to my surprise there was a package addressed to Olivia Jade Nails. Of course this could only mean one thing. Surprise nail mail! Naturally I ran back inside and opened it immediately. Inside was a beautifully packaged box with five Christmas polishes from The Nail Lab. Now if you are looking for traditional colours for Christmas manis I think these are the colours you need - a red, a green, a white, a gold glitter and a silver glitter. While I am eager to start doing some Christmas nail art I am going to hold off for a little bit so keep on eye out on my Instagram for nail art.
Brooke is a red creme. It's not too bright and it's not too dark, and it applies nicely. I used two coats for my swatch.

Diana is a clear based polishes with a mix of different sized silver glitters. I was a little worried that this would be a little too base heavy and the big glitters would be hard to get out, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was actually easy to work with, no fishing for the glitters and had a great amount of glitter come out. I used one coat over black for my swatch.

Foxy is the gold version of Diana. I did find that this one was a little sparse in the glitters than Diana but I don't necessarily think that that is a bad thing, particularly for those you don't like full on glittery nails. The formula was easy to work with and I didn't need to fish out the larger glitters. I used one coat over black.

Gidget is a white creme polish. This one had a good formula, it wasn't overly streaky like a lot of white polishes and was opaque in two coats.

Kelly is a green creme. Easy to use and definitely a good colour for the holiday season. I used two coats for my swatch.

All of these polishes are available for purchase at The Nail Lab.
What are your go to colours for Christmas?
I love these straight traditional Christmas colors. But then I love tradition. I should break out into song from The Fiddler on the Roof movie. hahah
ReplyDeleteI think I tend to stick to traditional colours (mainly) for nail art but my Christmas tree is usually full of brighter colours (like pinks and blues).
