I haven't done a nail design for so long now and was about to leave this one almost out as well. I had a lot of compliments for my nails and most people thought that they were fake even though they knew I always do my own nails. I don't really like fake nails therefore prefer to do my own by myself at least I can be proud that I did them myself.
So today there is a snowy Christmasy inspired nail design and I think I will be posting mostly Christmasy post this week as there are only nine days left and there are a lot of things that you can prepare for it . For example do fancy nails your self and show them off!
To start with you need these nail polishes to do my design but that doesn't mean that you can't do this ombre effect with other colours. For example in autumn I did some autumn ombre so I did the same thing but with orange and brown and the effect looked so good.
So the most important thing is the base coat to protect your nails and the the make-up sponge and the top coat. The others are optional. if you have been following me from the beginning then you may recognize the models own nail polish. I just love the colour of it and am happy to call it one of my favorite nail polish from my nail polish st ache.

The first thing to do is to apply the base coat and then the white coat . Apply 2 if it is to light. it is very is very important that you apply the white else the ombre effect won't work. Don't worry if you are not the best nail polish applier we will remove the nail polish around the nail later on. I love George nail polish as it is so smooth and watery so it spreads out over the nails very quickly but I have got quite long nails so if you have quite small nails then I don't really recommend this nail polish to you.
The second things is to get your make up sponge and apply the 2 colours that you have chosen . In my case blue and white. Oh and now you can see the 2 colours that I used for my autumn nails at the bottom.
Then quickly dip it onto you nails. Remember which way you want to put it on. Blue or white at the top or white or blue at the bottom. Dip it quickly onto your nails before the nail polish starts to dry.

Don't worry if you think that it doesn't look right yet because here is where the glitter comes in use. Apply it to the middle bit of the nail but not all the way till the bottom of the nail as you need to leave a bit of the white showing to make it stand out even more.
Then get a nail polish remover and clean the sides of you fingers.
