Penguins are such jolly creatures that remind us of winter and happiness. Start with a light blue base coat. Use black glitter polish and then white to draw the bodies.

5. Minimalistic Tree Design

If you desire something less typical and minimalistic this is the look for you. You’ll start with glitter transparent base.

6. Grinch Design

8. Gradient Design

If you need something festive and fast, this is just right for your needs. Start off with a simple white base color and let it dry. Then choose a glitter polish with big chunks of green and red, which are the colors of this holiday. Create a gradient effect starting from the tip of your nails going upwards until the middle. Finish off with a topcoat. Take your favorite white dress, red high heeled shoes, curl your hair and add a simple golden necklace and you’re simply gorgeous.

Christmas is all about green, red and gold. You can add these colors in your wardrobe and on your nails with full confidence that you’re sending that positive message towards others. Don’t be afraid to be classy and daring in your outfits.

But also, if you live in a cold area, dress warmly, while keeping your feminine side alive. Red lipstick is a great choice for this holiday because it adds meaning and elegance to any outfit. And your Christmas nail art ideas will add that cute sparkle no matter what.
