Why Glitter Nails Make The Perfect Party Mani

When it comes to finding the perfect manicure for this time of year, nothing says ‘festive sparkle’ quite like, well, glitter. Whether it’s traditional metallics (gold, silver, bronze), new bubbly favourites (champagne) or seasonal jewel tones (red, green, blue… the list goes on), there’s a set of glitter nails for everyone.

And the fund doesn’t stop at a classic mani either. This season, get creative with glittery French tips, rhinestone stars, dainty hearts, shimmery swirls and teeny tiny snowflakes. After all, Christmas only comes around once a year.
