Paid partnership with L.Y.X Cosmetics
Here are 16 fun Christmas nail art ideas to get you in the holiday mood. From matte candy cane nails to cute designs with reindeer, snowflakes, Christmas trees, Santa, and fireworks.
In collaboration with L.Y.X Cosmetics and their wonderful nail polishes, I've put together both very easy nail art ideas and more festive designs.
I hope you'll get inspired!
Cute Gingerbread & Reindeer Christmas Nails
Lacqua Feather Boa | Lacqua Sweet Tooth | Lacqua French White
With a brown and white nail polish, you can make this cute nail design. Use a small brush to paint the reindeer and apply a sparkling nail polish to make the reindeer's scarf pop.
Green & Gold Christmas Nails
Lacqua Forest Hug | Lacqua Fairy Dust | Lachrome Green
Use striping tape to make simple Christmas trees like this. Decorate with star-shaped rhinestones.
Red Lachrome Christmas Nails
Update your classic red Christmas nails with shining Lachrome! Decorate with gold striping tape. If you make a small bow with the striping tape it will look even cuter (see example further down in this post).
Easy Reindeer Christmas Nail Art Idea
Lacqua Cinnamon | Lacqua French White | Lacqua Fairy Dust
This might be the easiest way to make a cute Rudolph inspired nail design. Attach a red rhinestone as the nose to pump up the festive feel.
Matte Candy Cane Nail Art
Lackryl Eternal | Lackryl French White | Lackryl Matte Tip Top
Doesn't these candy cane nails look sweet enough to eat? I've used one of my favorite nail polishes, Lackryl Eternal with Lackryl French White. I've decorated the nails with red striping tape and rhinestones – and sealed everything with a matte top coat.
Firework Nails X New Year's Eve
Lacqua Midnight | Lacqua Fairy Dust | Lacqua Feisty | Lacqua Arctic | Lacqua French White
On New Year's Eve, I often go for black and sparkling nails. Use a thin brush a and draw lines around a small circle. Repeat with more colors for a colorful fireworks design.
Holly Christmas Nails
Lacqua Forest Hug | Lacqua Nude Dude
This is such a holly jolly and easy nail art idea. Decorate with red rhinestones or use a dotting tool and red nail polish.
Easy Frosty Snowman Nail Art For Christmas
Lacqua Treasure | Lacqua French White | Lacqua Snowflake
With a blue, white and black nail polish, you can create this cute snowman nail design. I painted the scarf with a colorful lacquer and applied an orange rhinestone as the nose.
Cute Christmas Nails with Present Tie
Lacqua Mojito | Lachrome Blue | Lacqua French White
Making a bow of striping tape is probably the most tricky thing in this post. But it sure is pretty and worth the time! To match the turquoise striping tape, I applied Lachrome Blue over Lacqua Mojito.

The Easiest Christmas Nail Art Idea
Lacqua Boho Chic
Gray is not a typical Christmas color but with a little red heart painted on one nail the manicure instantly feels more fit for the Holiday season.
Christmas Gold & String Lights Mani
After you're done decorating the tree, string lights on your nails with colorful rhinestones. Or, use a dotting tool and different colored nail polishes.
