Christmas Nail Art Designs

With under eight weeks to go until the big day and the Halloween door closed for another year, we know that plenty of your clients will be clamouring for a Christmas design imminently!

And with the ever-growing popularity of nail art designs, we’ve put together our favourite festive nail tutorials and our top Bluesky products to use to create them so you can cater for everyone this festive season.

The Santa French Manicure

While the summer saw a neon twist to the classic French manicure, the festive season means one thing for us: The Father Christmas French.

We love pairing a deep red like Long Kiss with Studio White to create this nail art design, using a thin nail art brush to shape the French manicure design. A fine glitter outline just below the tip will add something different and an extra sparkle for your clients this Christmas.

Marble Effect

For a festive twist on the ever-popular marble effect, we love mixing our favourite red gel polish with white and a hint of gold glitter for a stunning festive design.

All you need to get started with marbling is: a thin nail art brush, mixing pallet, your chosen Bluesky gel polishes – and the below tutorial video to show you exactly how it’s done!


Nail Art With Foil

When looking for a simple but stunningly effective design, transferable foil is one of our go-tos. Gold or silver foil looks great when paired with a solid gel polish colour or one with a fine shimmer to add even more sparkle to the nail.

Easily transfer the foil after curing your last layer of gel polish and before you apply a Bluesky Top Coat for the perfect finish.

Emboss Gel Designs

For a more subtle winter design this season, how about using our Bluesky Emboss gel to carve intricate patterns?

You can choose from our range of coloured Emboss Gels to find the perfect fit for your design, from the classic red and white pairing to a range of pinks, purples and more.

We love this take on a Christmas Sweater – follow the video tutorial below to re-create this winter style:
