Alpine Snow Globe

Hi everybody! I hope you haven't forgotten about me! I got completely overwhelmed with school, work and the like that I haven't been able to get on here much. I'm returning to the blogosphere with a great snowy manicure!




my first time using cuticle oil (properly)!


What I Used:
1 coat of OPI Nail Envy
3 coats of OPI Alpine Snow Matte
1 coat of China Glaze Snow Globe
1 coat of Poshe Top Coat

Bottom Line:
This was definitely different from anything I have ever tried before! Everyone has been layering Snow Globe over blue (namely, China Glaze's Blue Years Eve) but I wanted to go all out with a snowy effect. I just found my matter version of Alpine Snow on clearance at Ulta for $3.99 or $4.99, can't remember, either way it was a good deal! It was really hard to work with, as whites usually are for me. I think that 3 coats did a good job of covering my nails evenly. Overall I liked this manicure, I just wish it didn't chip as quickly as it did. 

What do you all think? What, in your opinion, is the "perfect" snowy manicure??

  3. That is a very nice combo, and so appropriate for the Winter season! I might give this a try. Thanks so much for sharing, hun :)

    By the way, it's been brought to my attention that many people don't see my posts from my blog on their feed anymore, and it could be because I changed my URL. I know you're already a follower of mine, but you probably don't see my posts on your feed. If I could please ask you to head on over to my blog, unfollow it then re-follow it, and then you should be able to see my posts in your feed again! I'd really appreciate it :)

    It's www.hudasbeauty.blogspot.com Thanks so much!
