Gifts for you


Hello lovelies! This week is the second week of nailpolishcanada.com's Holiday Nail Art challenge and the theme this week is "Gifts". For this mani I used Essie's Play Date, Licorice, and Pure Pearlfection, as well as purple, blue, and black acrylic paint. This was the first time I used acrylic paint on my nails and the application was different, but fun!

  15. This is so nice! The bows look so soft and floppy! Acrylic paints are so much easier to work with, they don't get all gummy like polish does...
