Christmas nails: classic nail designs for the season
SHOW A unique Christmas manicure
There are those who love it and those who hate it, those who look forward to it all year round and those who wish it was already past. We are talking about Christmas, the most famous holiday. Whether you're ready to bake the gingerbread man or you can't wait for January, you should dress yourself and your nails according to the winter 2022 trends. We can't tell you whether you will look better in a wool cardigan or a knitted dress, but we can suggest you the perfect Christmas manicure to make your aunt focus on your fingers instead of asking you when you will find a partner.
Evergreen Christmas looks
You known that this holiday’s colour is mainly red, but according to the Christmas 2022 nail trends it’s not enough: you have to play with decorations and micro-painting! The manicure for the most eagerly awaited holiday of the year can be simple but not trivial, so please welcome this mood to indulge in colour combinations, glitter and rhinestones. Remember that you'll need to have killer hands to deflect prying questions about your private love life, your grandmother will have to praise you for how much and how good you take care of yourself instead of asking you why you didn't settle down yet.
Your Christmas manicures options
If you're too bored of red or you want to save this option for the Valentine’s Day (hoping you don't end up your dinner on 14 February with the certainty that you've stumbled upon another charity case to forget), you can play with fir green or ice white to give to your hands a touch of boldness. Embellish them with snowflakes, glitter, silver or gold details; or you can choose an alternative French manicure using green, gold or red instead of white. You can draw Christmas trees or candy canes or there are stickers from Passione Beauty ready to embellish your nail design.
Want to play it safe? Go wild with the many shades of red, you can do a dégradé manicure for a clean but still impactful design. You can try your hand with a traditional red with a matt or metallic finish but do the same shade in a glitter version on the ring finger, hoping that relatives will notice glitters rather than the absence of an engagement ring.
How to make your Christmas nails
Winter nail trends 2022 also include the combination of grey with ancient pink, for a timeless chic-romantic effect. A good alternative is to create a transparent base to have all the space you need to draw gnomes, reindeer, elves, snowmen and more. If you belong to the perennially indecisive clientele and each time you arrive at the appointment with your beautician without any ideas, this time you have no excuse: this holiday provides a thousand ideas and solutions. Be careful to don’t end up like Mom's soup that you have to pretend you like it: enough is as good as a feast, wearing outstanding nail design doesn’t mean drawing ten different characters from Santa Claus village on your fingers, remember to don’t overdo it. All that's missing are the dirty looks of your cousin silently judging your hands, it will be challenging enough to pretend to like her reindeer jumper and to talk to her boyfriend who has as funny as a pine tree trunk (without decorations). Rely on your beautician and only ask her the nail design that makes you feel more comfortable, during the lunch of 25 December you will have to feel at your ease (do the same for your outfit, no jeans with buttons).
In short, nail designs provides more ideas than your mother who, when you ask "What do you want for Christmas?", she replies "Nothing, I already have all I need". Cues are many, you don't have to rack your brains to find the right gift idea as if you had to give a present to a relative whose you only know the name but you feel bad about showing up at his house empty-handed. Whether you are this holiday’s number one fan or if you strongly support the Grinch, a perfect manicure will make more magic unwrapping the gifts under the tree.
