With the days getting shorter and the weather getting colder everyone needs something to look forward to and luckily Christmas is just around the corner. Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year, excited children writing their lists for Santa, snow, cold nights wrapped up in front of the fire, the special evening spent trimming your Christmas tree and of course, Christmas parties! What do we need for all of those things? Perfect Christmas nails of course! Pair your favorite Christmas nail design with a matching sweater, and you’re perfectly dressed for all festive occasions!
Whether you want to stay simple and classy or go for snowman nail art, there’s something for everyone this season. Here are my favorite finds for this Christmas.
1. Beetles Gel Polish Berry Merlot Gift Box
What Makes it Great
I love the color range in this pack, it’s got something to go with every outfit and covers so many of the trending colors for this winter, plus they would look fab with some temporary nail art on them too. The colors themselves are stunning with some beautiful deep purples and reds. The gel formula should last for at least 3 weeks meaning that your Christmas mani will last you all the way into New Year, nobody has time to keep redoing their nails, especially at Christmas time! The 9 toxin-free formula means that it’s safe to use and is low odor too.
Where It Could Be Improved
If you’re not used to doing gel nails it can take a few goes to get the hang of it, but after that, it’s super easy. Once you’ve got the basic kit – no more nail salons!

- Note: the picture is a matte applying effect and you need to use it with the Matte Top Coat. And this product does not include Matte Top Coat. Personal Style: This “blend” of purples and reds will satisfy your pallet for Autumn nails!
2. ILNP Black Holographic Jelly Nail Polish
What Makes it Great
One of my favorite things about Christmas time is a walk in the snow on a clear night, kids throwing snowballs and making snow angels looking up at the stars. The sparkle in this holographic nail polish reminds me so much of that, I love it! It looks different in different lights and would look amazing with any outfit for a Christmas party, I love it for everyday wear too, who doesn’t feel better with a bit of sparkle now that it’s getting colder?!
It works great on its own, you can choose how many coats to use depending on how intense you want it to look, or for a completely different look, you can use it as a top coat over other shades. Because it is holographic and not glitter it is super easy to remove too. It’s cruelty-free, vegan and non-toxic while still using high-quality ingredients so you get the best of both worlds.
Where It Could Be Improved
It does need a few coats to not be too translucent, but if you apply a dark shade of polish first you get a gorgeous intense sparkle.

3. Ejiubas Holiday Nail Art Stamping Kit
What Makes it Great
I love this stamping kit! Some products I’ve used have been purely for Christmas and then can’t be used again for another year, but this set has loads of great designs that you can use throughout the year too. There are also designs for Halloween, and some that are cute enough that you’ll want to use all year round. I don’t know about you but often when something is just used once a year I put it away and then forget where I’ve put it. There’s no danger of that here, I’ll be using it all the time!
You just peel off the back of the template, paint it in whatever color you fancy, scrape off the excess and transfer it to your nail using a stamper. Then you just need to apply a topcoat. You can use it on top of any type of nail polish, but it’s especially good if you put it on gel nails, that way you can change the design when you want without having to redo your whole manicure. It’s a great way to get unique nails for the Holiday season!
Where It Could Be Improved
The stamps can be a bit messy to apply but if you apply a little liquid latex around the nail it will just peel off leaving nice clean edges

4. KINGMAS Multi-color Christmas Nail Decals

5. Crystal Rhinestones
What Makes it Great
If you can’t bling it up at Christmas then when can you?! I love these rhinestones and you get so many in the pack. They’re ideal for nail art, you could keep it simple by just using one on an accent nail or really go for it and cover them all! They could be used for loads of other things too, decorating clothes, accessories or even art projects. My kids loved using them for crafts, I don’t normally let them use my things like this but when you get 1780 in a pack I think I can spare a few!
Where It Could Be Improved
You will need to get some nail glue to go with these gems, but you’ll need such a tiny amount for each rhinestone that it’ll last you ages!
