Nails: Top Five Winter Polishes 2025

As yesterday was Yule, the Winter Solstice signaling the start of the official winter season in the Northern Hemisphere I thought now would be a good time to share my top five winter polishes. I have done similar blog posts in previous years 2024 (here) 2023 (here), 2022 (here), 2021 (here), 2020 (here), 2019 (here), 2018 (here), 2017 (here) and 2016 (here).

Stamping Plate: Bohemia Stamping - Santas Snacks

I got this plate around November 2024;

This plate comes backed with hard white plastic and with blue protective sticker over the top.

The images on this are all festive, cookies and other seasonal snacks. I have used this a few times and all the images stamped across. Some of the delicate lines needed a light hand but still stamped across;
