Christmas Flamingo Nail Designs: Fa la la la Mingos

It's holiday nail design time and I was invited to participate in the Holiday Nail Art Challenge at Nail Polish Canada! I always create new fun and festive nail art at Christmas time.

I decided to paint some fun, whimsical designs for my holiday nail designs this year. Christmas flamingos. 

Fa La La La Mingos

They are fun, they are happy, they are pink, and they are a bit quirky for Christmas time in the Philadelphia area which suits me just fine! I had plenty of inspiration.

It all starts with a sketch to plan the designs and colors.

After the planning I started my little works of art by polishing the nails with Zoya Leigh topped with Zoya Bela to create the perfect nude pink background for my flamingos.

 Zoya Sandy was the perfect flamingo pink for my flamingos with Zoya Ellie and Zoya Jordan as accent colors. Each flamingo was painted with a fine brush.

White Bumps Under Eyes: Milia

Have you noticed that you have little white looking bumps under your eyes? Some people call it chicken skin because the bumps look like plucked chicken skin. 🐔 Most likely those little white bumps are milia. They can feel hard or pearly. These bumps are not acne. Milia can occur when dead skin cells become trapped beneath the outer layer of skin. Keratin becomes trapped and builds up. A small benign cyst can form which is the milia. It's a cyst!?!

A dermatofibroma is a tan to brown benign raised bump more common in women than men and occur commonly on the legs. The bump feels hard under the skin and can be itchy, tender and easily irritated. A doctor will tell you not to worry about it because it's benign, but it's kind of ugly! Dermatofibromas are also called Benign Fibrous Histiocytomas. They are the result of some sort of injury to the skin such as an ingrown hair or a bug bite.  Be careful when shaving because a dermatofibroma may bleed and become sore if nicked. Don't think you can get rid of it by shaving it off. It will be an awful looking sore and will j
