Why Blue and White for Winter?

If you close your eyes and imagine being in a winter wonderland with snowy hills and frozen lakes, the color that will pop into your mind is obviously white.

Now, white alone can be pretty dull, so adding in another staple, classic hue, one that complements white very well, is necessary. Blue ticks off these requirements and more.

Blue and its many shades bring the fun into white, and during winter, when these two colors are combined, you get a refreshing vibe.

The colors seamlessly blend well together without either being overpowering. 

Essential Tools for Perfect Winter Nails

To create that perfect blue and white winter nails, you first need to have a set of quality nail polish.

There are reliable and reputable nail polish brands that you can consider, and despite being more expensive, you can be sure of the quality and safety standards of the nail lacquer.

This also goes for your base and top coats, which you should use when doing your nails.

Next, come nail tools. There is a wide range of tools that you can use depending on the look that you are trying to achieve.

For instance, a dotting tool of different sizes is recommended if you want some white and blue polka dots. You can also prepare some sparkles like glitters, rhinestones, diamonds, and pearls.

If you’re going to add dimension to your nails, add in your choice of 3D nail stickers and even chrome powder.

Advanced Blue and White Winter Designs

The good news is there are plenty of tutorials available online, even for advanced nail arts like these, and like all things, it takes time and practice to produce professionally-looking nail designs.

You also have to invest in more materials and tools to get it done. 

Do consider the look that you’re going after when deciding on more advanced nail art and also the lifestyle you lead.

While you want your nails to showcase your blue and white designs, you also want to be able to use your fingers and nails.

Maintenance Tips for Your Winter Nails

Enjoy your blue and white winter nails longer by ensuring that you give them some extra TLC. Here are some top maintenance tips: 

Do’s:

  • Use only quality nail polish, base, and top coat
  • Always apply a top coat on your nails and re-apply every three days
  • Ensure you apply thin layers of nail polish, ensuring each layer is 100% dry before adding another layer
  • Use quality nail adhesives to keep your nail bling in place
  • Wear protective gear when handling chemicals that can damage your nails
  • Moisturize your nail cuticles with oil to keep them healthy

Don’t’s:

  • Use coffin nails when you know your hands are always busy or you live an active lifestyle; instead, opt for short nails
  • Add too many embellishments on your nails because less is more nowadays
  • Pick on chipping nail polish because this is the start of the end of your blue and white nails
