Hedgehog Christmas Nail Art

Yaay! I’m so glad that I didn’t miss doing a Christmas nail art (a week to spare, phew!). Today, I’m going to show you my Hedgehog Christmas nail art.

Christmas Hedgehog

On my middle finger, I hand painted a hedgehog santa! I used both gel polishes and acrylic paint to draw him.

I’ve learned that it’s better to use acrylic paint to draw the tiny details such as his facial parts and the spikes. The paint is more pigmented than a regular gel polish and the drawing will turn out much clearer.

 

Christmas Nail Design 2017

On my ring finger, I’ve created a christmas present design. I’m currently obsessed with creating a window of design with some flakies underneath, and then outline around it using a white gel polish πŸ™‚ It gives a little emboss effect and I love it!

On my thumb, I’ve drawn another hedgie who is catching his Christmas present!

 

Kiara Sky Cheri Cheri

For the red base colour on my index and ring, I used CHERI CHERI from Kiara Sky. I’ve mixed a few different gel polishes to create the light beige colour for my thumb, middle and pinky (the details are in the video below).

 

Starrily Horcrux Nail Polish

Underneath the Christmas present window on my ring finger, I used Horcrux from Starrily, which has pink and yellow flakies.

 

Polish Posie

It’s hard to see the colour of the flaky through the bottle, but you can see the bright pink colour on the brush. Do you like my new nail polish stand?? It’s called Polish Posie and it’s really useful to keep my polishes and tools in place!

Here is the video of how I created my Hedgehog Christmas Nail Art – I hope you enjoy!
