Christmas 2025 Nails Pivot to Short, Elegant Looks With Metallic and Icy Finishes

Spanish-language lifestyle outlets spotlight minimalist manicures as the season’s reference point.

Overview

  • Caras frames short, practical shapes with discreet shimmer as the new marker of elegance for holiday manicures.
  • Excélsior highlights a refreshed classic: deep red nails elevated by warm gold accents through fine lines, French details or degradé glitter.
  • Silver and chrome mirror effects lead the winter palette, delivering a clean, frosty look that suits short, squared nails or bolder shapes.
  • Deep burgundy returns as a timeless option for a polished, non-literal take on the season, with velvet or subtle metallic touches.
  • Festive art spans candy-cane stripes, gingerbread motifs, tartan checks, delicate snowflake ‘iced’ details and playful polka dots, while Vanidades curates age-conscious ideas such as nude French with champagne sparkle, wine-red with metal accents and white–pearl gradients.
