Day 9 –
Your Most Festive Green
Hi
Goddesses
Well we’re
rolling along aren’t we, virtually a third of the way through, and this is the
first of 2 EASY days.
This went
in a direction I did NOT expect, nor did I expect to love the accidental
finished result sooooo much.
This is
firstly, 2 coats of CG Glittering Garland from this year’s Christmas
Collection. This is an amazing dark
green – a pure forest green that is GREEN and does not try to veer black. It’s then got millions of micro glitter
particles in it which give off an emerald sparkle. So so pretty. Yay, I loved a green!
Glittering
Garland came in my latest swap package from one of my nail besties, Bee Justice. She also included CG Twinkle Lights, which
had underwhelmed me every time I’d seen a swatch of it. I am not a goldy girl, and I was worried
about not liking a gift.
Twinkle
Lights is a clear base super-crammed with gold, red and green tiny glitter – there’s
probably twice as much gold as the other colours. On the nail – wow! This looked AMAZING against Glittering
Garland, absolutely amazing!
To be
totally honest, this mani was supposed to stop at Glittering Garland, and I
thought “I’ll just see what Twinkle Lights looks like before I put it away” –
well .. I loved! My favourite nails are
the ones with the tips. I NEVER do tips,
but now there’s obviously a whole new exciting world out there that I never
knew existed!
So, totally
in love with this mani. The Twinkle Lights makes it RIDICULOUSLY festive, and I
am loving my skittle application of the glitter – the randomness ratchets it up
another notch for me.
Lots of
festive love xxx enjoy J

Top Tip – if you’re
ever unsure what a nail colour looks like, go to Google images, which will give
you plenty of contrasts and compares.
