I did Candy Cane nails last year and was pretty pleased with how they turned out so I decided to try again this year, I used a slightly different stamp for the stripes and a different base red colour and I think they turned out even better than last year's. Which is why I have had them on for three days!
I used Bundles Monster plate BM-423 which is part of the Create Your Own collection for the stripes and then HD10 for the candy cane stamp, the base is Kiko 238. As usual I used a nail art pen for the white stamping polish as it's a bit thicker than regular polish and I like the effect it gives.
I really like the stripes, I think they look more candy cane than last years larger solid stripes, they also give a great effect in real life, loads of people have commented on them and asked if they were nail wraps.
Last year I had a sparkly glitter base colour but I actually think this manicure works better with just a flat cream under the white as it gives better contrast.
I really loved these nails, so much so I didn't want to take them off so they survived a whole weekend and I still have them on today!
awesome <3
