Winter manicure always inspires you to create especially beautiful masterpieces. It's time to rub in glitter, foil and rhinestones. Popular colors include burgundy, purple, milky and other nude shades. Winter is an amazingly beautiful time of year, filled with magic and wonders. With the help of a professional manicurist, you can create a real work of art on your nail plate. Just select the desired winter-themed design. Then the master will completely transfer it to the nails. The main thing is not to overdo it with the number of images.
Winter manicure is traditionally cold shades and silver. But not only. Let's talk about the most fashionable manicure of this year. So, the most fashionable color promises to be blue and its shades. The length is variable: both short nails – a hit of the last couple of years – and long ones, for example, pointed and oval, will be popular. One of the most popular textures is soap foam, which you can easily make yourself.
“Transparent manicure” for short nails
Short nails seem to be with us for a long time. And needless to say, it's boring. The length of the free edge is 3-4 mm, but they also give room for imagination. The most popular shape is either square or simply oval. The most fashionable and stylish manicure this year is nude nails. It can be combined with any type of glitter. The hit design is plant-themed and unusual geometry. Flowers can be painted with paint of a different texture and decorated with rhinestones, bouillons, foil and glitter. Rhinestones and glitter allow you to implement a variety of ideas, but this season they can also be matte.
Thematic design for the New Year 2021
On the eve of the New Year, it's time to get an original themed manicure. After all, it is he who adds a festive mood, helps create a more festive image and generally sets the mood for the approaching joyful event. Therefore, it is not surprising that girls are increasingly choosing this design. Various snowflakes, snow-covered twigs and a scattering of sparkles are an excellent manicure solution for every day. The design with fairy-tale characters, gifts and a festive tree looks a little more original. Be sure that when you look at your marigolds, you will definitely think about the upcoming holidays.
A knitted manicure also looks great in winter. It is especially cozy and delicate, so it goes well with almost all looks. An experienced nail artist will easily do this design in a short time. However, if you like to experiment with manicure at home, you can try this option. To do this, you will need special acrylic powder and a basic set for working with gel polish. Of course, it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to create a decent design the first time, so it’s better to practice on paper. If the volume of the design is not a fundamental nuance for you, it is better to purchase a slider design with a knitted pattern. It looks attractive in its own way and is rightfully considered a good alternative to the previous manicure option.
Since the symbol of 2021 is the White Rat, you can safely put an emphasis on such a design on your nails. It can be realistic, humorous or cartoonish. It all depends on your preferences. In this case, you can choose any color scheme. Because the main thing is that all the details look good together.
Fashionable winter manicure with textures
A winter hit is imitation of natural stones on nails. This can be the effect of turquoise, granite, rose quartz and marble. You can make, for example, 1-2 “marble” nails, and paint the rest in a similar tone. A pattern that imitates natural stone is created using both gel polish and regular varnishes. Additionally, you can decorate “stone” nails with fine shimmer, foil or rhinestones. Pastel and natural tones are most suitable for creating such a manicure. In winter, matte foundations in dark colors will be popular, especially purple and dark blue.
Winter color palette
In winter, the lack of sunlight and color is more acute than ever. And if it is easy to compensate for a lack of vitamin D, then it is very difficult to compensate for a color deficiency. The reason for this is the widespread snow-whiteness or, in the worst case, grayness. Following Mayakovsky’s advice, we argue that the best way to splash a little watercolor on the map of everyday life is to cover your nails with bright, colored gel polish. And our rich selection will help you decide on the shade.
Red
There is never too much red, well, except on the roads. This shade itself is self-sufficient and dynamic, so minimize the presence of patterns and rhinestones so that the design does not become vulgar. Although simple geometry, minimalist lines, openwork holes will be a good addition to red nails. Find more inspiring photos and useful information about the compatibility of scarlet in our article.
Blue
Another worthy representative of the “classic” palette. Deep, multifaceted, ambitious, but at the same time basic. Looks great in splendid solitude, but is no less effective in combination with a laconic pattern of a contrasting undertone.
Blue
The delicate and versatile color of denim has been repeatedly approved by Pantone experts. Who are we to argue with such eminent trendsetters?
Violet
An easy way to highlight your excellent taste is to cover your nails with purple gel. Without frills, arrogant shine and ornate monograms. Beauty is in simplicity.
Brown
Paying tribute to the crazy 90s is much easier than you think. It’s enough to take out a bright Adidas jacket from the bins, try on high-waisted “mom” jeans and change your usual nude look with daring brown. The soundtrack of the transformation will be something from the Spice Girls.
Pink
Seeing the world in rosy tones is much better than always looking for a catch in everything. A polish of the same shade will help demonstrate your position.
Turquoise
Most young ladies turn to a bottle of turquoise gel only when preparing for vacation, undeservedly ignoring it the rest of the time. But turquoise looks no less luxurious in winter designs. An excellent confirmation of this is the pictures below.
White
French manicure and white color are inseparably and closely related. And just snow-white nails look magical. What can we say if you are preparing for a wedding and are looking for an interesting covering option. You will find wedding manicure in all its diversity in our selection.
Burgundy
Wine, attractive and moderately daring shade for luxurious women.
Gold
Not only a ring or earrings, but also gold marigolds will complement the image of a fashionista. The only caveat is that shiny shellac is very difficult to remove from the nail plate.
Dark
Dark varnish looks especially stylish on short nails or on exaggeratedly long, predatory, pointed stilettos.
Gentle
For romantic, sophisticated young ladies who prefer naturalness and authenticity in everything.
French in a new way
French manicure will last forever, and it is good for its variability. So, the smile line can be of absolutely any shape, for example, triangular. One of the hits of winter can be called a French jacket with a “cobweb”. Also in fashion is a combined jacket: the smile line is made in two different colors. And of course, French manicure can be done in ombre or gradient style.
Current decor in winter manicure
It is worth paying attention to such trends as foil, knitted and shiny French manicure. Knitted is especially good on beige nails, foam - with rubbing, and foil - with elements of gold leaf.

Nude manicure with glitter
This season it may even be matte, but glitter has not been canceled. For this nail design, you can use either a special matte varnish or a matte finish. You can also combine the tenderness of nude with the brightness of glitter. Another beautiful trend is minimalist designs with shiny varnish on coffee or pink nude. Fine lines and noble shine are a great idea for an elegant New Year's manicure.
With foil elements
Decor with foil elements literally turned the heads of young girls a few seasons ago. At least once, the lady wore a foil manicure.
Any girl can do it, the main thing is to stock up on that very specialized foil. It can be different: pressed or transferred, in the form of thermal film, and also on an adhesive basis.

Please note: foil is very easy to use, but there may be different ways to stick it depending on the type and manufacturer. Check this point before purchasing!

Cobweb
Spider manicure appeared relatively recently. The cobweb evokes associations with frosty patterns and snow, which allows us to recharge ourselves with a festive mood. The web is a rather fresh and unusual idea, which has a very simple execution technique.
Thanks to special gels, a thin web is created on the nails. It can cover any nail, partially or completely. This allows you to ultimately form a pattern, as if frost were drawing on frozen glass on a cold night.
Discreet ethnic
Ethnic print has existed for a long time, but the masters decided to present it differently, making more restrained and thematic patterns. Thus, the previously allusive ethnic manicure becomes a rather fashionable, laconic type of manicure that fits into the winter look.
Geometry, light lace, ethnic patterns in small quantities, as well as soft pastel colors will always be relevant here. The darkest color in this manicure can be dark gray, graphite. You should not choose black options and too bright, rich colors.
