Hot Holiday Polishes

It's party time! You've got the dress, the hot hairstyle and the perfect makeup look—now all you need is a manicure worthy of your sexy style. Check out our picks for the best fun and festive polishes to complete your party look.

CNDTry CND Effects in Scarlet Shimmer.  Layer this shimmery clear top coat over a metallic gold polish to create a fiery effect. The clear polish is infused with vibrant red shimmer flecks that add warmth and depth to the gold polish. Apply it alone to add a subtle scarlet flash to your nails.

Try the new sparkles from the OPI Burlesque Collection.  One stand out from this collection is Ali’s Big Break it is a jelly based candy apple with flecks of gold micro-glitter.  In the bottleit looks to be some sort of duo-chrome but on the nail it’s more like a piece of lucite with flecks of gold leaf trapped inside

Rising Star is a burnished copper foil metallic from this OPI Burlesque collection.  So many brands are coming out with more foils as opposed to traditional metallics which aren’t as user friendly.  The color is not what is traditionally thought of as copper but it’s not quite gold or bronze. 

Want perfect nails to see you from Christmas to New Years?  Then you want a Shella Manicure!  Want to get a pedicure but don't want to trudge out into the cold or snow with flip flops?  Then you want a Shella Pedicure?  Why you ask?  Because you can put your boots on right after you get your Shellac Pedicure and head back outside with NO SMUDGES!   How great is that?

Shellac™ truly is a hybrid of traditional nail polish and UV gel polish. Unlike soak-off gels it comes in a polish bottle and unlike traditional polish it cures/dries under a UV lamp. Though what I really liked is there is NO BUFFING. There is absolutely no damage to the natural nail in the process. So how does it work?

Shellac paints on like polish – base coat, color, top coat – and is cured in a UV light so there is zero dry time. The colors are hypo-allergenic, and “3-Free” – no formaldehyde, toluene or DBP. Shellac will launch in a range of 12 varieties of shades, from pretty French pinks and whites, to siren red and rich darks. The formula is thin and flexible like polish, so it not only looks natural, it provides strong natural nail protection with a resilient mirror finish that resists dullness and chipping, even during the most rigorous activities. 

And now we also have more color options with the introduction of Gelish gel polish we have an additonal 48 color ranges.

Want a fun pattern without the polish?  How about getting Minxed for the Holidays?  We have a large selection of patterns to choose from. 

How Does Minx Work?If you think Minx nails are similar to the store-bought Avon and Incoco nail stickers found in the beauty aisle of your local Target or CVS, guess again. What makes Minx different from such low-budget versions is the specialized material and adhesive. A flexible polymer that is heated and then applied to your nails like a sticker, Minx Nails are a mess-free, green alternative to sticky nail polishes and topcoats and applied acrylic tips.

BLACK W/SILVER FLAMESWhen performed at Bella Toccare de Spa and Salon, a basic manicure is performed before application where the nail plate is cleaned of all oils and residue. Afterwards, the coatings are heated under a lamp in order to warm the adhesive and make each individual piece flexible. Your Bella Toccare Minx nail technician will then line up the rounded edge of the adhesive with the cuticle and, while lightly dragging, press the coating onto the nail. Viola! Simple as that!
