Christmas Trends 2025

28 May

December is the month where nails finally take centre stage. Christmas parties, brunches, end-of-year events, and of course New Year’s Eve. This year, the trends are all about soft luxury, elevated detail, and wearable glamour.

Trend 1: Velvet Cat-Eye

Using a magnetic “cat-eye” polish, nail artists create a shimmering, velvety finish that catches the light like crushed fabric. Ideal in deep greens, cranberry reds, and icy silver.

Trend 2: Soft Gold Accents

Minimalist gold lines, gilded tips or tiny foil details that elevate a neutral base. Gold is the modern holiday red—classy, warm and effortless.

Trend 3: Winter Whites

Milky whites, pearly sheers and frosty glazes are trending for clients who want something festive but not bold. Think “frosted champagne”—clean, chic and Instagrammable.

Trend 4: Micro Nail Art

Tiny snowflakes, fine-line stars and delicate details on one or two accent nails. A beautiful way to have holiday nails without going full Santa.

Whether you want subtle, sparkly, or full-glam, December is the month to experiment—and our Mila Bella artists are ready to create your dream festive set.
