Quickie Holiday Mani

This was one of those times where I needed to do something with my nails, but I didn't have a lot of time to spend on them.  So I grabbed a couple glitters and my go-to white base, and boom.  Quick and easy holiday mani!  I used a new green glitter that I picked up from the store the other day, and the red glitter I got from Priti NYC back in August (and was all excited to use for Christmas even back then!)

Products Used:

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in White On

LA Girl Glitter Addict in Purge

Priti Polish in Union Jack

Priti NYC- Black Prince Orchid

Black Prince Orchid is one of the five nail polishes I received in my Priti NYC haul.

Black Prince Orchid, second from left

Black Prince Orchid is a deep burgundy purple color that has a little bit of a jelly look goin' on.  I think it will be really great for fall.  Check out how the color varies in these pictures!

Priti NYC- Lace Aloe

Lace Aloe is one of the five nail polishes I received in my Priti NYC haul.

Lace Aloe, first on the left

Lace Aloe is.... not what I was expecting.  It's green with silver flecks, and it sort of varies between a deep forest green and a lighter, more aloe colored green (fitting name!).  It has a hint of duochrome going on that I was unable to capture with my camera.  I really can't decide if I like it or not.  What do you think of it?

Union Jack is one of the five nail polishes I received in my Priti NYC haul.

Union Jack is an amazing red glitter, micro and hexagonal, set in a clear base.  It is absolutely stunning, looks fantastic with just one coat, and will be fabulous for Christmas.  Here it is on black (pointer), white (middle), two coats (ring), and one coat (pinky), and in the following photos, Rabbit Tracks.

Priti NYC- Darjeeling

Darjeeling is one of the five nail polishes I received in my Priti NYC haul.

Darjeeling, last on the right

Oooooo I am in LOVE with this color.  Darjeeling is the absolute most perfect dusty rose pink that I've ever used.  I love it on my skin, and I am not usually a pink person, but I adore this.  It's my top two favorites from this haul!  (the other being Rabbit Tracks, posted yesterday)

Priti NYC- Rabbit Tracks

Rabbit Tracks is one of the five nail polishes I received in my Priti NYC haul.

Rabbit Tracks, right in the middle

Rabbit Tracks is definitely a winner!  It is this gorgeous greyish blue-green.  I think it will be perfect for fall.  It's lovely in these photos, but it's definitely better in person.  It's one of my top two favorites from this haul.

Nail Mail- Priti NYC

A little bit ago there was a pretty great deal on ideeli- $25 for a $50 voucher at Priti NYC.  I ended up getting 5 different polishes- four in a "kit" (which I designed) and one extra to bump my total up to $50.  Then all I had to do was pay for shipping!

Well they came in the mail today, and can I just start right out and show you how ADORABLE the packaging for the kit was?

Seriously, how cute is this?

Tied with a bow and everything!  So here are some previews of the colors... I've already swatched them and put them together in their own blog entries and so I don't swamp you, I'm going to schedule them to post one a day for the next five days.  

Seriously, adorable
