  • Ombre nails – white color is the perfect neutral shade to experiment with lots of ombre nail designs. It pairs perfectly with red, green or even neutral colors like beige.

  • French nail tips – traditional French tips get the Christmas treatment and start appearing in shades of white, with added glitter, snowflakes and other elements. Simple manicure spruced up for the holiday season.
