SMYTC Holiday Nail Art Challenge! Day 5: Reindeer!

Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer.......

Hi everyone! Today marks the halfway point of the Holiday Nail Art Challenge and todays theme is Reindeer! I was a bit intimidated by this challenge because I knew I would have to freehand it but I think it went pretty well! I took my time and proceeded with muchos caution.

The base color is two coats of OPI Alpine Snow with one coat of Happy Anniversary on top. Happy Anniversary gives insane amount of pink and green shimmer. It looks like glistening snow. I wish my pictures picked it up better!

Then I did the reindeers with:
-China Glaze Mohogany Magic for the fur
-Wet n Wild Black Creme for the outline & antlers
-Red loose extra fine glitter for Rudolphs nose
-OPI Alpine snow for the eyes
-HK Girl topcoat to smooth it all out



I love that Rudolphs nose adds some sparkle on the accent nail! I first saw this awesome design on www.thenailasaurus.com I believe!

Thanks for reading and don't forget to check out the awesome nails of the other gals in the challenge!

  1. I never thought of using Happy Anniversary as a layering polish. I definitely will now - thanks for the inspiration! :)

    1. :) You are very welcome! I used it a few times trying to get it opaque and was frustrated with it. But it is VERY pretty layered!
