By Farisia Thang -
Whether you're staying in or planning an all-out holiday gathering with your close ones, we've put together a list of festive nail art ideas. Get your inspiration here for your upcoming holiday celebrations. Themed for Christmas, New Year's, and the in-between meet the merry nail arts to get you in the holiday spirit.
While red and green might be the obvious pairing for your festivities, go for the gold and red colourway to opt for something more elevated than the usual look.
If reds are too bold for you, go for something that's in the same colour family with a magenta. We love the pop of sparkle against the rest.
We love the muted palette of greens in this look and if you want to make a little more festive the plant details really add a special touch. Emery & Co's nail wrap kit includes 16 nail stickers, one mini nail filer, and one cuticle pusher at $14.90.
Toeing the line between going all out and keeping it subtle, we love this look for its pop of reindeer artwork in between reds.
For something a little more abstract, opt for these shapes and blobs that hold all the festive colours in one go.
Borders can make all the difference when it comes to nail art. We love how the red and pink play off each other and add a sweet and feminine touch.
Keep it simple with a nude nail and gold accents on the tips. It wears well into your new year festivities as well.
While it might be a little off from the typical festive scheme, we love how playful these colours are. Stick to a more green and auburn colour palette if you really want to keep it festive, but we love how wearable these colours will still be well after the holidays.
Add a twist to the festive red with black tips. We love how the contrast works and it remains festive and wearable all at once.
Instead of going for the classic red and white, switch up the colourway to gold for something more subtle and elegant.
And if you prefer to keep it traditional, this classic red and white festive motif will definitely get you in the mood for celebration.
A quirky and artsy twist on the classic french tips, we love how these shapes look on the nails. Plus, they won't be a pain to upkeep once they grow out.
Soft and romantic, stick to a pink and gold colour scheme if you prefer something more work-friendly and wearable for the everyday.
