Milky Christmas ornament nails

This design is proof that holiday nails can also look sweet, bright and fun. The milky white base gives a soft, polished finish to your hands, while the embossed ornaments with glitter and metallic details become the real stars.

To recreate them, use a milky base with a glossy finish. Draw thin lines in black or gold and paint some circles with cat-eye polish. Add some details with lines and finish with top coat to seal everything.
