Christmas nails 2023, ideas and colors so as not to go unnoticed

The fashion world has decided that red is the trend color for Autumn/Winter 2023-24. It is therefore not surprising that there is an increase in requests for flaming manicures in beauty salons, especially as the holidays approach. Red is most seen at Christmas and is the classic, bright and light red, but on the catwalks we have seen many captivating and more intense shades, from cherry red to wine red. Those who normally choose red all year round should not hesitate to prefer a nail polish with very fine tone-on-tone glitter, perfect even with short nails

Is called Outline French this manicure that reverses the principle of the French manicure, leaving an empty space where a contrasting color usually goes. It’s nothing new, it’s been around for a few seasons now but it comes back into fashion cyclically. Many enjoy doubling the lines by playing with the shape of the tips. For Christmas, glitter nail polish is a great choice
