We have another holiday party to attend tomorrow, so of course it requires a new mani! My little boys love candy canes from Santa, so I wanted to make them smile with this one!! I applied two coats of Ruby Pumps, and then a top coat. I always use a top coat with glitters before using scotch tape on a mani because glitters and scotch tape don't always get along too well! After they dried, I cut small strips of tape, placed them on, and applied two coats of Alpine Snow Matte. I liked the contrast of glitter and matte, but I still decided to use a top coat - I'm a sucker for glossy nails!!! Happy painting!!
