These Snow Globe Nails Are the Most Festive Way to Decorate Your Fingertips

1. Shine Bright: To achieve the globe look, you or your nail technician will need to make a bubble out of clear gel polish, then fill it with water and other goodies like glitter or sparkles. Once it dries, you’ll get the same thrill you did when you were a kid shaking up a glitter storm.

2. Special Snowflake: If you’re willing to get a little crazy with your nail art for the holidays, the sky is really the limit. Paint detailed snowflakes on the rest of your nails and create a “base” for the globe with alternating silver and white mini globes. No two nails need be alike!

3. Chilly Ocean Breeze: Got gadgets and gizmos aplenty? You can actually put mini shells in your snow globe and create a really ah-mazing wintry ocean scene. Finish the rest of the look with a cool dark blue color and a topcoat of white and silver glitter. So gorg!

After my second visit, I would have to retract my recommendation for Enchanted Siblings... 😔 Second visit is just disappointed, due to festive season, I was required to pay a deposit to secure my mani and pedi appointment, which I am fine with it, however, even with paying a deposit, my pedi appointment is not secure, this is not fair. My mani wasn't very well done, no pushing cuticles, the nail polish got on the skin around the nails, uneven coats, the nail artist couldn't even tell whether the top coat is dried(clearly it wasn't dry due to the amount she put on my nails, but she insisted that it's dry until I showed her there's scratches on it) etc. Overall very disappointed 😔 #nailaddict #nailart #xmasnails #xmastree #rhinestones #snowflake #pastel #brokenglass #snowglobenails

4. Star on the Tree: A pretty snow globe is obvs going to be a major showstopper, so keep the rest of your nails neutral with pretty cracked white and pink polish that’s all kinds of on trend right now. Then go holiday glam with a tree crafted out of decals and glitter. Don’t forget the star on top to really make this set shine.

5. Frosty Tips: Hiya, Frosty the Snowman! To get a little snow guy inside your globe, paint him on your nails before creating the clear water globe on top. Then add in some pretty glitter blue tips and snowflakes to complete this friendly winter look that’s anything but chilly.
