21 Christmas Nail Colors You Need for a ~Festive~ Mani

If there’s one time of the year when wearing glitter and absolutely nothing else is more than acceptable (although, TBH, when is it not?), it's Christmas. I personally live by a very strict nail polish calendar: Spring nails are for pastels, summer nails rep mostly bright colors, and fall nail polish means earthy tones and ofc, Thanksgiving nail art. And IMHO, Christmas is the perfect excuse to swap your neutrals for Christmas nail colors. But even though getting my nails to peak festivity levels is all about shine, there's also room for softer Christmas vibes like icy blues and pearlescent whites here (more on that below).

If it seems like these colors would also work for your winter nail ideas and New Year's Eve nails? You'd be right, because this list also includes (ahem, spoiler) some very ~chic~ golds and silvers. And because I think you should shine bright like the festive lil star you are, I found 21 of the best Christmas nail polishes that you'll def want to grab for your holiday manicure—just keep scrolling.
