DIY Santa Hat Nail Art

With Christmas now only a few days away, I decided to get into the festive mood by creating a fun Christmas mani. After watching this video from Bubz Beauty, I decided that her santa hat nail art would be the perfect design.

This nail art is surprisingly very simple, with only a few required steps:

  1. Create a red tip                  2. Dot a V shape under the tip              3. Add dots for the fur

I started with a base coat, Butter London Nail Foundation, and finished with a top coat, INM Out The Door. For the red hat, I used Wet n Wild's new (releasing in Feb 2015) Wild Shine nail polish in Red Red with their old Wild Shine polish in French White Crème for the fur. I also used my dotting tool from Sephora to create the V shape and the white fur.


Note: Wait a few hours to apply top coat, and try not to drag the brush against your red and white paint. If you drag the brush bristles, the paint will smudge. Use a decent amount of top coat and be fast with your brush strokes.

Merry Christmas!
