- Prep nails and apply two coats of white gel polish, curing each layer thoroughly to achieve opaque coverage.
- Using a fine detail brush and red gel polish, carefully hand-paint tiny Christmas tree outlines or simple shapes on selected accent nails, curing immediately.
- With a clean detail brush, apply a thin layer of clear gel or top coat over areas for snowflakes. Pick up gold glitter and meticulously create delicate snowflake patterns, then cure.
- For extra sparkle, strategically apply a small amount of red and gold glitter around the Christmas trees and snowflakes, pressing it gently into a tacky layer if desired, then cure.
- Encapsulate the entire design with two layers of glossy top coat, ensuring all glitter and details are sealed smoothly, and cure for the final time.

Expert Tip
For truly crisp and delicate details on the snowflakes and Christmas trees, ensure your detail brush is very fine, clean, and loaded with only a minimal amount of polish. Practice your strokes on a foil or silicone mat first to perfect your precision.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does this Red & Gold Christmas design typically last?
With proper gel application and diligent aftercare, this detailed design can beautifully last for 2 to 3 weeks without chipping or fading.
Can I get this snowflake and tree design with regular nail polish?
While technically possible, the crispness of the tiny details, vibrant glitter encapsulation, and overall longevity are best achieved and maintained with professional gel polish.
Will the glitter make my nails feel bumpy?
When properly applied and encapsulated with multiple thin layers of a high-quality glossy top coat, the glitter should feel completely smooth to the touch, not bumpy.
Are the Christmas trees always red, or can they be a different color?
While red provides a classic, elegant contrast on the white base, we can absolutely customize the Christmas tree color to green, gold, or even silver to match your personal preference!
Is this detailed Christmas design safe for my natural nails?
Yes, when applied and removed correctly by a skilled professional, this gel polish design is completely safe and non-damaging to your natural nails.
Can I add tiny gems to this design for more sparkle?
While the design is elegantly sparkling on its own, small, strategically placed clear or red micro-gems could certainly enhance the festive glow for an extra touch of luxury.
Aftercare Tips
- ✓Keep nails dry for at least an hour after your appointment to ensure optimal gel curing and adhesion.
- ✓Regularly moisturize your hands and cuticles to prevent dryness, which can affect the longevity of your manicure.
- ✓Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or excessive heat immediately after your service.
- ✓If you notice any lifting or chipping, contact your nail artist for a professional repair to prevent further damage.
Safe Removal

- 2.Soak cotton pads in 100% pure acetone, place them on each nail, and wrap tightly with foil.
- 3.After 10-15 minutes, gently push off the softened gel and design with an orange wood stick or metal pusher, avoiding aggressive scraping.
