Christmas nails: nail polishes for a perfect holiday manicure
Every year, Christmas nails follow the same pattern: summer shades give way to deeper colors, a touch of sparkle is added, and extra care is taken to make the polish last through family meals and New Year's Eve. This collection brings together Vitry's Be Green nail polishes, which are vegan, bio-based, and made in France, so you can create your holiday manicure, from classic to festive.
What nail polish color should you choose for Christmas nails?
Red remains the classic choice: Rouge Passion, Rouge Intense, Rouge Feu, and Rouge Profond offer a range of shades, from bright red to deeper red. For a more refined look, deep shades such as Grenade, Raisin, and Impérial add depth, while nudes and beiges (Ivoire, Ganache, Capuccino, Rose Délicat) are ideal for those who prefer a more subtle look. For Christmas nails, the key is to choose a color that feels like you. If you're tempted by red, discover our selection of red nail polish.
How can you add glitter without overdoing it?
Shimmery shades such as Etincelle, Folie Etoilée, Voie Lactée, and Comète work beautifully as accents: on just one nail, usually the ring finger, or as a thin French manicure line. You'll get a bright, festive manicure that's still easy to wear every day. For a softer effect, Perle Nacrée and Rose Givrée add a touch of light without being over the top.
How can you make your Christmas manicure last through the holidays?
To make your Christmas nails last, just follow a few simple steps: apply two thin coats of color rather than one thick coat, let each coat dry before applying the next, and seal the free edge of the nail. A top coat protects the color, extends the wear of your nail polish, and adds a beautiful shine. Remember to apply another thin coat every two or three days.
What do you need to do your manicure at home?
A nail file, nail polish remover, a base coat, your color, and a top coat are all you need for a perfect manicure. To find everything in one place, discover our manicure kit.
