This Is a Christmas Mani (not a 49ers Mani) - Makeup and Beauty Blog

I like to do red and gilded Christmas manis, and I've done them a few times over the years. I've also been asked a few times, usually by grunting, manly dudes, if I'grand wearing 49ers colors on my nails, to which I say, "NO! This is cherry and gold. It's a Christmas mani."

For the longest time I thought this was a weird thing that simply happened to me, but I was at the Kaiser lab a few weeks ago to take this really long, intensive glucose test that took three hours, and information technology was just me and all of the prissy lab ladies kick it onetime school. Well, Lacey, one of the gals who works there (hi, Lacey!), was wearing a similar manicure with ruby-red and gilded glitter, and as she was drawing my blood for what seemed like the umpteenth time that 24-hour interval (at this point, we were already BFFs), nosotros got to talking about her mani.

I was similar, "I like your Christmas mani," and she looked at me in complete surprise! Apparently, I'd been the merely person to NOT assume she was wearing a San Francisco 49ers mani. She said that everyone, including her married man, all said (and we both said this at the same time), "You're wearing 49ers colors!"

Nosotros had a good laugh.

And so, I'm trying again this year, and I'm thinking about making this my latest Christmas mani, primarily because I dearest this red. It's Dolce & Gabbana Dora 627 (information technology's $27), and it's from their vacation collection.

The gold on my accent nail is Smith & Cult Shattered Souls (and those Smith & Cult nail polishes certain accept amaze-balls vesture fourth dimension).

Dude, Dora is intense! I'm wearing 1 coat here, and it'due south full coverage All. The. Fashion.

Dolce & Gabbana recently updated their bottles, by the way (I can't remember exactly when), but they're squarer now and less rectangular, and I love the wide brush (it's like to OPI's).

I haven't decided yet how long I'm going to be wearing this Christmas mani, notwithstanding, because of these cuties!!!

They're from the new 2022 Essie Retro Revival drove, which comes out side by side calendar month (they're on pre-sale right now online). I'll post swatches soon.

Even if my Christmas mani doesn't actually brand information technology to Christmas this yr, I'g still glad I got to share it with you.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen
