Candy Cane Inspired Nails

Hello! :)

This week is officially my last week at school for a month! I only have 2 more finals to take and then helloooo Winter Break! :) I'm excited to get back home and sleep in my own bed, eat home cooked meals, not have to study, read for leisure, go shopping, go ice skating... the list could go on lol.

For my last week here at school I decided to do nails that are reminiscent of candy canes. I used e.l.f Cranberry as my base color, which is a blue toned red with red glitter and then I stamped diagonal stripes on top using Color Club Antiquated. This mani is very sparkly and looks very Christmasy. It also reminds me of wrapping paper haha. Cranberry is a top coat eater, so later on today I'm going to have to add another layer of top coat to smooth everything out.





That's all for today and thanks for stopping by and reading! For those of you who still have finals and papers to write, good luck on all you exams and assignments! :)
