1. Holiday Glam Red Almond
Holiday Glam Red Almond turns holiday glam red into a wearable manicure, keeping the almond shape clean and balanced. It works beautifully for a special occasion and still feels easy for everyday wear.

- Why You’ll Love It: It is easy to refresh with a top coat, so the manicure keeps its shine for days.
- Styling Tip: Ask your nail artist to keep the motif small and centred, which suits every nail length.
2. Glamorous Emerald Coffin
With Glamorous Emerald Coffin, emerald sits on a coffin base in cranberry, forest green and ice white, and the result feels fresh rather than fussy. It pairs easily with most outfits, because the colour story stays soft even when the motif is detailed.
- The Look: A deep red, green and ice white base with crisp-outlined charm placed across two accent nails.
- Why You’ll Love It: It feels fresh without trying too hard, and the coffin shape flatters most hands.

3. Champagne Glam French Square

- The Look: Soft cherry red, forest green and sparkling gold tones with smooth-gradient detailing as the focal point.
- Why You’ll Love It: It draws compliments without needing heavy decoration, which keeps upkeep simple.
- Styling Tip: Pair it with minimal jewellery and a clean bag so the design stays the focus.
4. Festive Glam Oval
If you want holiday glam without going over the top, Festive Glam Oval is the version to try: festive glam on oval nails in cranberry, holly berry and berry red. The balance of colour and empty space keeps it modern, even with a classic motif.
- The Look: Layers of cranberry, snow white and berry red behind soft-blended charm, sealed with a velvet-matte top coat.
- Why You’ll Love It: The motif is distinctive enough to feel personal, yet classic enough to repeat.

Key Nail Care Tips for a Long-Lasting Manicure
- Prep gently: Clean, dry nails hold polish better. Shape the edge and clear old residue before you begin.
- Use a base coat: A base coat protects the nail, prevents staining from holiday glam pigments, and keeps colour smooth.
- Seal the edges: Cap the free edge with each coat. Two thin coats plus top coat outlast one thick coat.
- Moisturise daily: Cuticle oil and hand cream keep polish flexible. Reapply top coat after three days for shine.
How to Choose the Right Design for Your Hand Shape
- Short or Square Nails: Choose small holiday glam motifs and one accent nail. Compact art keeps short nails neat.
- Almond or Oval Nails: Try flowing holiday glam art and soft gradients. The curved shape suits detailed motifs well.
- Stiletto or Coffin Nails: Use bold holiday glam placement and larger motifs. Longer shapes carry statement art beautifully.
