11 Easy Holiday Nail Tutorials To Follow

The holiday season can make even the Scroogeiest of people enthusiastic about things they normally don't care about. I, who refused to dress up for Halloween, am now the world's most enthusiastic Christmas tree-owner, and holiday tunes are on constant blast in my apartment. Even if you're not normally into over-the-top holiday celebrations, you have to admit holiday beauty season is a ton of fun. From holiday hair to holiday nail art, there are a million ways to seize the season. If you're low maintenance like me, these easy holiday nail art tutorials will save you from spending hours on your nails.

I admittedly am not the world's most exciting person when it comes to nail colors. I keep my nails short, avoid nail art and stick to basic colors year round. From March to October, my nails are almost always painted a pale nude shade (I'm obsessed with Sally Hansen's "Almost Almond"), and in the fall and winter months, I'm all about the dark, moody shades. Navy, burgundy and charcoal grey are my go-tos. But even I can get enthusiastic about holiday-themed nails. I'm impatient and have limited nail skills, so these 11 nail easy holiday nail tutorials are right up my alley.

1. Snowfall Nails

These nails are perfect for beginners. The red color is festive, and the glittery, snowy accent nail really steps up your mani game.

2. Vampy Nails

If you're normally all about dark, neutral nails, this is a great way to ease into nail art. It's super easy and subtly festive.

3. Bright Nails

This video has three separate tutorials, but I'm all about the red ones. They remind me of stockings.

I love the contrast of this look, and if you have the right polish, it looks super easy. Pick a festive red or gold.

9. Snowflake Nails

If you're a fan of gray nails like I am, this tutorial is the perfect way to step up your mani game.

10. Candy Cane Nails

This is one of the harder tutorials on the list, but the end result is so worth it.

Can't resist the glitter? This tutorial is perfect for you and way easier than it looks.
