For those looking for something simple to wear, consider a classic light blue manicure. Light blue represents the cool weather, so it is the perfect color to try out this winter.
If you want to amp up your nails' winter vibes, add a clear or silver shimmer top coat over the color to give it the snow effect.

When we think of icy manicures, shimmer immediately comes to mind, as snow looks sparkly when sunlight hits ice crystals. Bare nails with silver or gold shimmer is one way to capture this effect and provide you with that winter aesthetic in a subtle way.
This particular manicure is elegant and is best worn with longer nails, as the length can help enhance the shimmers.

This technique is perfect for those who want to step up their nail game and create a manicure that will make people obsessed. This manicure is easy to learn, and even if you consider yourself a nail expert, you will have fun experimenting with this fun and unique style.

Another icy nail inspo for winter is the white almond nails with silver stripes.
White nail polish is not only perfect for the winter theme, but it is also a trend among those who enjoy minimalist looks and the clean girl aesthetic.
This manicure is simple to do and recommended for those with almond shape nails. After applying white nail polish on each nail, draw one or two thin silver lines near the base of each nail. You can put your own spin on it by drawing silver lines on each nail except one on each hand.
