The Perfect Christmas Nail Art Design For Each Zodiac Sign
Gemini’s is *so* on point.
Christmas is less than a couple weeks out. For folks who love themed nail art, it’s time to start scoping out some festive manicure inspiration.
Classic winter-coded styles like “ice princess” white chrome, cozy plaid, and even ruby red nails are fitting for the holiday. However, if you’re looking to amp up your Christmas mani game, consider going for a look that’s in line with your own zodiac sign’s unique aesthetic.
If you’re a confident Leo, you're probably drawn to metallic gold nail polish. For the holiday, why not add some star-shaped gems reminiscent of a tree’s glistening centerpiece?
Pisces, on the other hand, are dreamy and romantic, and often go for pastel-hued manis and whimsical motifs painted on their tips. Ribbon-filled holiday nails in coquette pale pink feel perfect for the water sign.
As for Virgos — who are known to be detail-oriented — an intricate gingerbread house-inspired design is the move (especially since the base color is an earthy light mocha).
Scroll to find some fun nail design inspo for Christmas ’24, based on your zodiac sign.
