Whether you’re going to parties or just hanging out at home this holiday, it’s the perfect time to add a bit of glitz and glamour to your look – and that includes your nails! Looking festive and being colourful doesn’t only apply to your clothing and makeup. It can also apply to your nails.
I love the Joy of Color Collection from Sally Hansen because it includes trending festive colours like red, maroons and green shades. Plus, they have a new glittery white shade. So it has everything to make it the perfect holiday collection.
1. Holiday Nail Art
If you’re like me and love decorating for the holidays, then why not have some fun decorating your nails with the same festive spirit? When it comes to my nails I say go big or go home. Do nails that get noticed. Here I created my own nail art and drew on some Christmas trees.
Sally Hansen’s Miracle Gel Joy of Colour collection is perfect for the holiday season with 6 great colours. My favourite colour from this collection is a deep green called “under the tree” which gave me the inspiration for this look. I paired it with the colour “Snow What You Want”.
2. New Year’s Eve Sparkle
NYE is all about the glitz and glam. I love sparkle, especially metallics. So, I’ve done a Half and a Half! Here I’ve used colours “Gift” for Blue & “Wrapped in Love”. Again, it’s all about the sparkle. I’m aiming for 10 disco balls on my hands for NYE…Lol!
3. Sophisticated Look
I love going all out with my nails, but if it isn’t your thing and prefer a more subtle look, then you can’t go wrong with a classic French manicure. But this one has a twist. Instead of a white tip, I’m going to use some colour. I’m going to try the colour “Red It Twice” that works so well for winter and especially the holidays.
What I love about metallics, is that it’s super forgiving. Steaks and smudges don’t really show, which makes it perfect for when you’re doing it yourself at home. You can wear one colour if you’re more subtle or alternate colours and still keep it a sophisticated, elevated look.
And don’t forget to always use the Miracle Gel Step Two topcoat to protect your manicure. After using the Miracle Gel polish colour, top it off with theTop Coat and you can have your mani looking amazing for up to 8 days! And you don’t need a UV lamp.
