Nails: Candy Apple Festive Red!

I' ve already told you how much I love the China Glaze Snow Globe glitter nail polish and I've been layering this on top of various nail lacquers (HERE you can see it on its own) and the most festive combination so far  is this one:


I've used one layer of the Erre Due Last Minute nail polish in #08.
It's a red color a tiny bit on the cooler side and that side becomes more apparent when I use two layers of it. When I use one layer (like in the photo) it's like a candied red apple, very fresh and pretty.
On top I used one layer of the China Glaze Snow Globe nail polish.


Here's a close up, please bare in mind that I'm a total beginner in manicure so my nails are not in the optimal condition for a photo, but I wanted to share this combination with you!


PS: If you have thin, soft nails (like mine), a good idea is to try the Erre Due "Hard Attack" nail strengthener.
I got it on a whim 6 months ago (I usually purchased the Mavala one) but I'm really happy with this, I use it twice a week and my nails don't brake and don't split anymore.

What's your favorite festive nail polish/combo?

  5. i love using glitters as a top coat too! right now, i actually have green nails topped with red and green glitters. the only thing i hate about it is taking it off. it's quite hard sometimes.

    HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
