Step-by-Step Nail Art Thursday - New Year's Eve Nails

Some Press Samples Featured*

Hello lovely readers! This is my last Step-by-Step Nail Art Thursday of 2017, so what better way to end the year but with NYE's nails?

Keep reading for some celebratory nail art inspiration!

New Year's Eve Holographic Firework Nail Art


I went with a classic silver and black pairing for this manicure, but it is all about welcoming the New Year with lots of sparkly holo and fireworks!

The Base
For the silver, I used a full coverage silver holographic microglitter. The one featured here is Drunk on Holo by Painted Polish and I originally reviewed here. I applied two coats of polish on my index and middle fingers.

On my ringand pinky fingers, I used a holographic black polish. I used black both as a pairing for the silver polish and as a canvas for some nail art.

The Fireworks
For the fireworks, I used the 2017 PolishCon exclusive stamping plate by Lina. I also did a microglitter transferring technique using loose microglitters from Moonflower Polish*. I recently reviewed these microglitters here.

For the finished look, I applied a glossy top coat and applied a rhinestone on my pinky finger.

Thank you very much for your continuous support and for reading along! I sure hope to continue to bring you more makeup and polish reviews next year as well as more nail art. I will also like to more techniques and free-handed nail art, so stay tuned in 2018.

Love.
