[NOTDs] December 2015

I post my nail-of-the-day pictures on my nails-only Instagram account.  You can also find them on my "Prim & Polished" Pinterest board.  This post will be a rehashing of my manicures from last month, December 2015.  My cuticles were wrecked this month, so I tried to care for them, by applying cuticle cream and avoiding nail polish remover.

Neverland Lacquers Candy Cane Lane over Julep Soraphine (1 coat each)

Zoya Oswin (no top coat)

Unless otherwise specified, I use a basecoat, two coats of color, then a topcoat.  I use OPI Natural Base Coat and New York Color Grand Central Station for a topcoat.
