1. Seeing Stars

This manicure sparkles like the star on top of your Christmas tree. Here, manicurist Betina Goldstein used nail jewels to create the design on a clear base.

2. Festive French

This seasonally appropriate French manicure features red trips and a swipe of multicolored glitter polish. The exact shades editorial manicurist Mimi D used? OPI's Big Apple Red ($11, amazon.com) and You Had Me at Confetti ($11, amazon.com).

3. Candy Cane Swirls

Channel the classic holiday treat with this swirly manicure by Sigourney Nuñez. The nail artist went with OPI's Alpine Snow and a red polish for the white and red swirls, and gold and green lacquers for the others.

4. Christmas Lights

The combination of deep navy blue and the colorful polka dot accent nail reminds us of twinkling Christmas lights at night.

5. Red Ombré

Why choose one of your holiday reds, when you can wear all of them? Use five different shades, starting with the darkest on your thumb, to create a cool ombré effect.

6. Frosted Ice

Not feeling full-on glitter polish, but still want a holiday manicure with a little shimmer? Try a frosted white nail polish like Essie's Crystal Clear Intentions. It's an opalescent polish with multidimensional shimmer that will remind you of the morning sun reflecting off a fresh pile of snow.

7. Let It Snow

Speaking of icy, no manicure screams "holidays" like classic white French tips paired with a snowflake accent nail.

8. All That Glitters Is Gold

Adding a swipe of gold glitter over your base instantly makes any neutral polish feel festive. If you're into this slate blue and gold combination, the exact shades are Paintbox's Like Gilded and Like Wonder.

9. Chic Wrapping Paper

This festive design by manicurist Natalie Minerva is reminiscent of beautifully wrapped gifts under a Christmas tree. Use white polish as your base, then a nail art brush to paint the gold stripes. Finish by adding nail jewels for a little sparkle.

10. Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

A black shimmer nail polish looks like twinkling stars in the winter night sky. And the beauty of this manicure is that all you have to do is simply paint your nails with OPI's Turn Bright After Sunset to recreate it.
