A festive manicure<\/a> is the finishing touch every holiday<\/a> outfit needs–and yes, themed Christmas nails can be totally chic. The secret: Instead of going ultra-literal with Santas or reindeer motifs, try something a bit more subtle. These candy-cane nails are stylish and sophisticated–in a very merry<\/a> sort of way!<\/p>\n

The best Christmas nail art designs feature a twist on the manicure looks you already love. In this case, I added some holiday spirit<\/a> to the negative space trend with simple red and white lines and a dash of glitter. The result: candy cane-inspired nails that are sparkly<\/a>, glam, and perfectly OK to wear after the holiday<\/a> is over. Sweet<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Scroll on to see how to score this holiday mani for yourself!<\/p>\n

Candy Cane Nails<\/h2>\n\"candy\n

Step 1:<\/strong> Begin by painting the nail with half a diagonal glitter as shown. Wait for the first layer to dry before applying the second layer of glitter.<\/p>\n\"candy\n

Step 2:<\/strong> Paint two red lines parallel to each other. If the lines come out sloppy, just use an angled brush and dip it in polish remover to clean them up.<\/p>\n\"candy\n

Step 3:<\/strong> For the accent thumb, you can add extra white lines between the red lines as a subtle nod to Christmas candy canes!<\/p>\n
