Snowmen
Snowmen
Well, what would a New Year's manicure be without such an important attribute as a snowman. And if you add snowflakes to it, the design becomes truly wintery and festive.
To complete this you will need:
- base varnish (in the photo it is turquoise);
- white varnish for patterns;
- a pair of colored varnishes for painting small elements;
- thin brush;
- dots;
- clear nail polish.
New Year's nail design begins in the same way as any other design - with the application of a basic base color, which needs to dry well. After this, large circles are drawn with white varnish - the body of the snowman. On not very long nails you can make only two snowballs. It's enough.
While the snowman’s body is drying, dots are made using dots to imitate snow flakes. Some dots can be stretched with a thin brush to give them the shape of snowflakes. When the snowman is dry, eyes, buttons, carrots and twig handles are drawn on it. The entire pattern is covered with transparent varnish. In general, manicures with snowflakes and winter designs are in demand among both female students and respectable ladies.
Such a manicure for the New Year is not just a tribute to the holiday, but also a good way to diversify your own everyday life. Even if only in manicure. The snowman design can be done on both extended nails and natural ones.

Perhaps, for the New Year, even those who on weekdays prefer a modest plain manicure and classic-shaped nails can afford a nail design with rhinestones. Yes, shiny stones will shimmer beautifully on your nails, both during the festive dinner, and during the President’s congratulations, and during dancing and other joys of the New Year - they will shimmer and warm your soul with it

Stamping snowflakes
Stamping snowflakes
Naturally, it is very difficult to draw openwork, sophisticated and graceful snowflakes by hand. And that is why such an auxiliary method of making small patterns has appeared in nail art - stamping. It was with its help that a manicure with snowflakes was performed.
It’s very easy to make one if you have a stamping kit. It includes: a scraper and a stamp, a disk with patterns, paint. The latter can be replaced with dense and thick varnish. Even old varnish that has thickened and is asking to be thrown away will do.
To make a beautiful and delicate New Year's manicure, you must first coat your nails with base varnish. In the photo it is snow-white. And when the coating dries, a pattern in the form of snowflakes is applied to it using a stamp. Black in this case. This strict combination of colors does not spoil the manicure for the New Year at all. It even gives it some zest and a special style.
For stamping to really pay off, you need to remember that the stamp is always pressed firmly against the nail, without unnecessary movements. Otherwise, there is a risk of smearing the drawing and ruining the entire design.

Snow abundance
Snowy abundance
New Year's nail design without snowflakes and sparkles does not look as festive as with them. And this is clearly visible in the photo. Performing such a manicure requires some skill, since there is not only a bright blue snowflake, but also its transparent imprint.
You can make a design using stamping, since this is the easiest way at home. First, the nails are coated with a very pale white matte varnish, then a classic French polish is applied. In the photo, by the way, this is an extended French manicure. But the design is also suitable for natural nails.
Using a stamping stamp, a colored snowflake pattern is first applied, and then a glossy one on a pale matte background. This is exactly what will be the imprint, which is quite difficult to do manually.
New Year's nail design doesn't end there. It is complemented with rhinestones and glitter varnish, after which everything is secured with a transparent varnish or a fixative with a matte sheen. Fantasy has no limits here.
