Well, folks, we’re officially approaching the final frontier of 2020: the holiday season.
And no matter what you do or don’t celebrate, the last few months of the year are always a great reason to take your manicure up a few notches — even if you’ll only be showing your nails off on Zoom.
With COVID-19 numbers on the rise once again, by the time the holidays roll around, you may feel more comfortable painting them yourself at home, regardless of your skill level.
Good thing we found seven easy mani ideas that even the newest of newcomers to the nail game can master in just a few steps.
All of our picks, ahead.
Keep It Simple
It goes without saying that this has been a chaotic year. So if you’d rather not bring the drama with your manicure, that’s completely understandable. To create this look, just grab a pack of Color Street’s polish strips, and apply one to each nail, then you’re done. Yes, it’s really that simple.
Crafty Colors
If you don’t have a steady hand, no worries, because this mani requires anything but. Simply paint on your base color, then choose three others to swipe onto the tape strip. When you’re ready, cut out triangular shapes (they don’t need to be perfect), stick them on your nails, then finish off with a top coat. While vlogger Kelli Marissa used white, green, gold, and red for her nails, feel free to use whatever color scheme suits what you’re celebrating this holiday season.
