Bring on the glitter.
Although it feels like January 2022 was only yesterday, 2023 is fast approaching. Before you spiral about the passage of time, remember that ringing in a new year does bring about positive energy — it’s the perfect opportunity to manifest and create new goals to tackle in the days ahead. Another perk to look forward to? The festive occasion calls for your most fun, sparkly, blinged-out styles. You may already have an outfit and beauty look in mind, but don’t forget about your New Year’s nails.
You could lean into the shimmery decor, fashion, and makeup associated with the holiday, but your New Year’s mani doesn’t have to be all sparkles and glitter. You can switch it up with some eye-catching nail art or 3D embellishments for a pop.
