Top Christmas nail art ideas
Candy Cane Nails
Who doesn’t love the classic candy cane design? This simple yet striking nail art is a Christmas staple. Start with a white base coat, then use red and white polish to create thick, diagonal stripes. You can keep it classic with just a few candy cane stripes or get creative by adding multiple stripes or even a dripping “melted” effect.
Glitter Snowflakes
Embrace the winter wonderland vibe with delicate snowflake nail art. Begin with a light green or white base, then use a fine-tipped brush and white or silver polish to paint intricate snowflake designs. Add extra sparkle by sprinkling on some holographic or iridescent glitter.
Minimalist Christmas Trees
For a modern take on holiday nails, try a minimalist Christmas tree design. Paint your nails a deep green, then use a thin brush to create simple Christmas tree silhouette in the center of each nail. Top it off with a dot of gold or silver polish for the tree topper.
Ornament Nails
Deck the halls…of your nails! Paint your base a deep red or white, then use a dotting tool to create ornament-inspired circles. Get creative by mixing metallic accents, glitters, and even 3D embellishments for a truly dazzling holiday mani.
No matter which Christmas nail art design you choose, the most important thing is to have fun and get creative! These easy holiday manicure ideas are perfect for mixing and matching, so you can come up with a totally unique look. So, grab your polish and get ready to sleigh the season in style.
