    I think I've taken the glitter too far up though!? I had red glitter on before and I like that much better!

    I'm getting a UV hand lamp and some shellac from my mum for Christmas so I'm gonna have a go myself then. I've got some nice reds and a gold glittery one.

    I once spent a lesson at school painting my nails green and red with Spectacular nail varnish! (Last day before Christmas and a cool dude teacher). Don't think I've done festive nails since?

    I may do them Xmas eve night if I'm not too tired. I keep my nails short and rarely use polish as I'm always washing my hands / washing up / using baby wipes!

    I have glittery red nail varnish to put on tonight. I refuse to allow myself to do even one nail until the last of the presents are wrapped though. That's my incentive to get the hell on with it!

    My friend and I went halves on a Sensationail gel kit and it's brilliant! We've built up a variety of colours now and it lasts 1-2 weeks. She does mine for me though cos I'm crap!

    Pompey where's your 'snow' polish from? I ❤️ it.

    Here are mine, the blue/silver is a bit messy as the snap was before tidying. That was for my works' Xmas do, Nails Inc silver Fibre Optic and blue Galaxy effects polish. The red was for my awkward family Xmas do and lovely granny's bday meal yesterday. I might change for tomorrow but I dread getting the glitter off! Might just paint over a silver holographic ring finger to change it up.

    Anyone else interested in Nails Inc goodies? I'm a total addict. Good job my 'get better with money' is for 2014! Just been browsing for discount codes on MSE and saw they have a 'get it or regret it' sale on and also another Lucky Dip offer (7 full size for £20) plus free delivery if you spend over £40.

    Not sure how I missed a nails flash thread! These were mine for Christmas day (though they are a bit chipped now) I'll change them today but will still have some glitter over the top. Holey I love that green - where is it from. And ef I have serious nail envy, I wish I could do something like that! I've never tried nails inc before, I'm going to have a nose at the website now

    I am jealous of all the festive nails... mine are all different lengths and look awful at the moment!

    Its fab, I wasn't sure when I first started but they look really good. I'm not sure what colour is put under it so I just did it on bare nails.
