Happy New Year's Eve

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year's Eve and hope everyone has their resolutions all lined up. I know I don't, LOL! Anyways, here is my last mani of the year, my blingy silver holo glitter extravaganza. I used Sally Hansen Celeb City as my frosty silver foil base color (can see it on my accent nail), then I dipped my nails in some unnamed tub of ultra fine silver holographic nail glitter. Then 2 coats of Seche Vite to encase the glitter and smooth it out. I cannot describe how sparkly this looks in the sun in real life. These picture only capture about a tenth of the sparkle. I used small black beads from a Bundle Monster nail art wheel set for the 2012 and yes, it was a pain in the you-know-what. Enjoy!

See you all next year and as always...

Much Love, The Dragon Lady
