I honestly think this turned out way better than I anticipated.
I had so much fun with this! If you guys have any fun Christmas challenges, or you would like to start doing this one, post your pictures on my facebook wall!

I am in love with these two polishes!
I bought Nail Junkie a while ago. Harper came with my December Julep Maven box. When I saw it I was in love!
And then I was like...wait a second. I have definitely seen this before.
The difference? Nail Junkie is just a HAIR darker. All nails are three coats with 1 coat Seche Vite. Any guesses as to which is which?
Pointer and ring are Harper.
Middle and pinky are Nail Junkie.
What do you guys think?
I love cupcake nails. Perfect for Birthdays!
Step#1: Paint your nails your choice of color. I did two different colors.
Step#2: Draw a line dividing your "icing" and wrapper.
Step#3: Paint the bottom half if your cupcake the color of your wrapper. I chose brown but you could use any color.
Step#4: Using a dotting tool (or bobby pin, bottom of paint/makeup, whatever you can get your hands on.), make your icing hang over the edge of the wrapper by dotting the icing color on the dividing line.
Step#5: Give your wrapper some definition by highlighting the "crinkles." I used silver.
Step#6: Give that cupcake some sprinkles!
There you go! For my other nails I did streamers and a birthday present.
Polishes used:

I decided to do a Christmas challenge this year! I know I'm a day late (oops!)
This is my first attempt at caviar nails! I think if I practiced a little bit I could get the hang of it!

I would like to start off by saying that I hate giving a negative review. BUT... I don't want you to spend $14 or so on this garbage.
The instructions were simple, you do have to like....switch brushes and stuff after 5 nails, which seemed like a little hassle. I only did my thumbnail, since I had already seen a negative review on this.
NOTE: on this box there was no "lasts up to (x) days!" For good reason.
I wasn't able to give you a sunlight picture of my nail because by the time I had gotten ready in the morning, it had chipped. -.- I had only done the nail the night before!
Removal: yucky. Goopy. Blegh. I used pure acetone and let it soak. Even then I still had to do a lot of scrubbing.
All in all, don't waste your money. Use regular polish and Seche Vite and you'll fare much better!
Have any of you used this product?

This is definitely one of my FAVORITE polishes. One coat honestly does it. I use two of course, just to make it really solid.
The brush is an awesome rounded thick tip, so there is really no cleanup needed!
They run around $4-$5 a piece, but they go a long way! I definitely recommend this product.
How many of you use this type of polish?
