Snowflakes keep falling on my head

Hello there, and merry December. And here forth lies my first Christmas design of this year, it was my first Christmas design last year too. I had it on during my exams, I loved them then and I still do. Ah reminiscing of last year... I've been seeing a lot of snowflakes but I like these ones that I somehow came up with myself :)


They're just cute, and I love all things cute. I was having difficulties with my photos as always with getting the white to show up, but they came out better than expected. Which is always a good thing.
Blue: Revlon - Blue Lagoon
White: Lovely Me:Ex - White (no name) and Models Own - Snow White
Shimmer White: w7 - Polar Bare
Glitter: Barry M - Hologram Hexograms
I should use Blue Lagoon more, it's a nice colour and 3 thin coats did the trick (or 2 thick coats). It has a pretty shimmer (that's hard to capture on camera). Polar Bare adds more than you would think, even if you can't see it in the pictures. It gives variation :P And I love the Hologram Hexograms, they're like a touch of holographic glitter. Which is perfect.

I was happy with my right hand too so I have a little picture, it was hard to get a good picture by the way. It still isn't that great.

I've decided to show last year's snowflake nails too. I did SO many Christmas designs last year, but me being the genius I am. FORGOT TO TAKE PICTURES *facepalm* It really is a blast from the past, I was very happy with it then but it's not as neat as I would like it to be, and my cuticles are a state (but I didn't care then :P). I never pose like that and my nails have not been as short since.
Blue: Barry M - Blue Moon
White: Lovely Me:Ex - White (no name) and Natural Collection - White
Shimmer White: w7 - Polar Bare
Glitter: Barry M - Hologram Hexograms
Pretty much the same except with Blue Moon, I used that polish a lot.

I was especially proud of my thumb, still am actually. Except my cuticles were such a state that I had to edit it out. Well that was taking a delve back into the Plumeria19 vault.

After a picture heavy rambly post, I hope you are having a wonderful day! :)
