Cool as Ice

Forget just painting snowflakes onto your nails — try adding special textured effects, like @nailsbymookie does here, to make them look like literal icicles.

We know how difficult it is to choose a nail design, let alone around the holidays. So we love how @Ricekittynails proves that you can incorporate multiple Christmas elements into one cohesive manicure. Here, she combines festive red glitter polish with candy cane and snowflake accents and we couldn’t be more obsessed.

Warm and Cozy

Nothing is better than curling up in your favorite sweater as you watch the snowfall during the holidays — that is unless your nails match said sweater. One of our favorite trends this year is cable knit detailing, and when paired with snowflake art, it makes the perfect wintry manicure.

Frosted Tips

Give the term frosted tips a whole new meaning by painting on a classic French manicure with a shimmery polish like Essie Jingle Belle. Be sure to add silver snowflake details to tie the entire look together.

Fresh Flurries

The phrase ‘less is more’ does not ring true around the holidays. In fact we love being extra, especially when it comes to our manicures. So take some notes from @tiptopshapenails_ and add all the bling and snowflake designs to your nails just like she did with this awesome mani.
