A lot of people who purchased the Holiday set from Sally's with the red glitter and two blue polishes were somewhat disappointed in their purchase when they discovered the shade names. This trio did not include three new special holiday polishes but some favorites among China Glaze lovers. This trio is made up of Ruby Pumps, used in the mani, Frostbite, and Dorthy Who? I was very excited about this because these were all polishes i've seen but have never really had room in y budget for, so getting all three for $8.99 was a score ;D I'm sure you'll soon be seeing Dorthy Who? and Frostbite making an appearance on my blog as i can not just let the lovelies sit.
For this mani i used....
China Glaze "Ruby Pumps"
Orly "Luxe"
China Glaze "Side Saddle"
I began with two glamourous coats of China Glaze's "Ruby Pumps." This red glitter sits in a red jelly base and unfortunately looks kinda gross in pictures. Much like China Glaze's "Emerald Sparkle" this is a perfect holiday color if you want super sparkle and festive color. I used this as the base color for my mani.
After my two coats of Ruby Pumps dried i took another China Glaze by the name of "Side Saddle." Like a chocolate syrup loaded with chocolate sugar glitter, this brown has an unexpected seductive quality to it. However appealing, i only used this on the tips because i did not want to upstage my glitzy red.
After my tips dried i took two sizes of dotting tool and Orly's "Luxe." With Luxe i made two curved rows of gold dots. The outside row i used the larger dotting tool and the smaller one for the inner half ring. Of course i got carried away and added a loppy star on each finger.
