[LACKtastischer Adventskalender] 11th of Dec – red/gold

Good morning everyone,

welcome to door number 11 of Lackliebe‘s [LACKtastischer Adventskalender]. For today’s theme I picked red/gold, which originally was presents!

I did a manicure matching the original theme presents, but was not very happy with it. Because of that I decided to do a red/gold manicure as well.

Please join in as well. If you do it on Instagram, make sure to use #lackvent2015 so we can see your Advent nail designs as well.

What I used? (presents)

Make-up Factory – 347 black glam
Catrice – Rocking Royals LE – C03 Royal Blue
trend IT UP – Sprakling Glamour LE – 030
Catrice – 59 First Class up-grape
just cosmetics – 020 sparkle green

I started this manicure by painting each nail in a different base color and letting it dry.

Afterwards I used different shimmer and glitter polishes to paint on the ropes for the presents. I used a thin brush to make it as neat as possible. After this dried I added a clear top coat and used different rhine stones to create the bows.

Et voilà, you are done.

What I used? (red/gold)

Ciaté – party shoes
Sally Hansen – Salon Manicure – gilded Lily
trend IT UP – Sparkling Glamour LE – 010

Paint your nails a nice shimmer red base color and let it dry completely. Add liquid latex around the tips of your nails, let it dry and use Ciaté’s party shoes to add a little bit of shimmer to the lower part of your nails up to the tips. After that dries use the almost dry brush with Sally’s gilded Lily to add a little sparkle starting around the middle of the nail up to the tips. After that is dry you can carefully add more glitter with a make-up sponge. Keep adding until you are happy, but be careful not to create a harsh line. After you are done use Ciaté’s party shoes one last time to add the last coat of shimmer and to blend everything together.
