Eid Manis!!

Some of you may know that Eid has just recently passed. For those of you who didn't know or don't know what Eid is , I wont go into detail here but there are 2 different types of Eid. there is Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Ada (but we just call them Small Eid and Big Eid) you can types those in a search engine and find out what each of them are.

 Eid is kind of like Christmas I guess, the reasons for each celebration differ but on Eid we all get dressed up wearing new clothes and make loads of scrumptious food and go visit family and friends.Which is kinda like Christmas right?

Obviously I can't get dressed up for Eid without having a mani to.compliment my outfit! There are 3 days of celebrating but I'm only going to.show you my manis for the first 2 days. I tried to find decent pictures of my outfits as well but unfortunately I couldnt find a good one for day 2. 
on to the pictures!!


Day 1:





My outfit for the day! (and yes that is my phone and yes it's HUGE! lol)
Please excuse my messy room!


Polishes I used:
Essie 3in1 Base
Zoya Mitzi
Milani Neon Fresh Teal
OPI I’m In-dia Mood For Pink
Black Striper Nail Art Pen/Brush from eBay
Seche Vite

I also used a medium length striper brush which I also brought from eBay.

I really love how all these colours go together! I don’t usually go for bright manis but I really loved this! Zoya Mitzi is a matte polish but I decided to add topcoat to it so it would be nice and shiny like the other nails. 

Day 2:





My outfit for the day! I totally forgot to take one standing up so you get one of me sitting! :)
P.S. Look at my henna!!

Polishes I used:
Essie 3in1 Base
China Glaze Fifth Avenue
Zoya Moxie
Seche Vite

I used Red Angel stamping plate in RA 112.

I tried to match my nails with the velvet on my sleeves and I think it worked pretty well! I did mattify this later on with a matte topcoat and it looked awesome but I didn’t get a chance to take a picture. Maybe I will do a similar mani again and make sure to take pictures of it matte so you can see what I mean.

Thanks for reading!
