While I’m partial to a new nail trend now and then (I’m currently obsessed with a mocha manicure), when it comes to winter nail ideas and Christmas nail art, I tend to steer clear of these looks altogether. It’s not that I don’t love them on other people, it’s just that I never seem to suit those over-glittery or statement manicures that we tend to gravitate towards at this time of year. However, after scrolling through Instagram, I came across a somewhat festive, shimmery nail look that literally took my breath away. Say hello to “cinnamon sugar” nails.
As the name suggests, this nail look features a warm, cosy, cinnamon-toned hue, with a shimmery, sometimes glittery finish. Whilst this would never usually be up my street, there’s something about the brown shade and orange undertones that looks incredibly chic. I also love the fact that you can make your manicure as sparkly (or as subtle) as you’d like, depending on your desired look.
