Christmas Nails With Barry M Jingle Bells

Hello! I hope you've all had a nice week or so, whether you're celebrating Christmas or not. I get more and more excited when Christmas rolls around each other and I plan on doing things like Christmas nails. But I never give myself enough time to do so. Next year hopefully I'll be more organised but I did manage to do some nail looks. First off there was the Essence The Little X-Mas Factory collection I showed as well as the Barry M Superdrug Exclusives for this winter. I also managed to pick up one of Barry M's 2014 Superdrug exclusives, I showed it in a nail polish haul. I don't know why I didn't pick it up or some of the others I missed out on that year (I did pick up Twilight and Starlight). Jingle Bells is definitely one of my favourites this Christmas and I did three looks with it.

This is it over Meet Me Under the Mistletoe from the Essence Little X-Mas Factory collection. I don't tend to go for darker greens but I'm super glad I picked it up this. I love that you get all the traditional Christmas colours in this look and it's so fun. I will definitely be recreating this next year!

This is over Let's Take an Elfie from the Essence Little X-Mas Factory collection. If I hadn't that Essence polish I would have put it over a pure white but what I love about the Essence one is that it adds an extra bit of shimmer and sparkle to the look.

Essence The Little X-Mas Factory in Let's Take an Elfie with Barry M Jingle Bells glitter topper nail polish made into a crelly polish nail art look

This is the above look but I've made it into a crelly look (so similar to a jelly but using a semi opaque polish to give it a milky look). I love crelly polishes but find it's more indies that make them and they're harder for me to get. So I DIYd it by adding a very sheer Essence polish I had on top of the glitter and I love how it tones down the glitter a bit but it's still sparkly and fun.

Next year I'll be more organised with more looks! Do you have a favourite polish or look for this time of the year? Leave a comment below and let me know
