Christmas Nail Art: Santa and Rudolph

This is my 4th installment for my Christmas nail art collection for December 2010. I just couldn't let the month pass without painting my nails with Santa Claus and his most famous reindeer -- Rudolph! I have 2 accent nails, as usual. :P

For base colors, I used Revlon Emerald City for my left ring finger, Lucidarling White on my right ring finger, and China Glaze China Rouge for all the other nails. These were all applied in 2 coats.

This design is quite versatile. If you don't feel like having an accent nail, the polka dots over a red color base is enough for a Christmas manicure.

Santa Claus makes an appearance on my nails before Christmas!


Even as a kid, my parents were quite honest to tell me that there is no Santa Claus. When I grew up, I never really felt sad about it but I did figure out how important he is to children during the Christmas season. As he is said to make a Christmas list of good children all over the world, kids are given incentives (so to speak) to be good so they will receive a wonderful gift from Santa Claus on Christmas.

I decided to paint Rudolph on my right ring finger to accompany Santa Claus. I personally really love how this turned out. I was thinking of exaggerating his red nose. I think that would look hilarious!

Among Santa Claus' flying reindeers, Rudolph is the most popular because of his shiny red nose. He leads the pack when Santa is delivering presents on Christmas Eve. The other eight are Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donder, and Blitzen.
