Festive nails are a must for me at Christmas time but this year I didn’t want the classics – red, gold, silver etc. So I opted for a candy cane pattern… in pink.
I used Barry M White and Baby Pink and I used a nail art brush set that quite a few bloggers have mentioned recently (there are loads of sellers with these on ebay I bought mine from
here)
If your not into having pink girly nails, you can always use a red polish instead of pink or just add a green stripe for a more traditional look.
I used my bottle of Seche Vite for the first time when I did this & I was planning to do a review on it but honestly there isn’t very much to say – it’s AH-MAZ-ING :)
It helps my polish dry incredibly fast, it doesn’t smudge my polish and it stops my colour from chipping for days! I bought mine
here for £6.75 including postage which is seriously a great deal as this is normally around £8-9.

Oooh thanks for recommending that topcoat, my main problem is smudging my nail art so this seems like a great idea! Lovely nails too!
Oh my gosh, I wouldn't have the patience to do that! Looks cute though!
I like the fact that your choice something festive but not the typical red, gold, green etc. Stand out from the crowd that's what I say xx
