If you’re getting them! I have just done a nail tech course and hoping to earn a little bit extra this Christmas and beyond and I’m wondering what colours to buy. I’ve got a shimmery red and a glittery green. I’m looking at a silver and a gold glitter too. Any others you are tempted by that I could buy to get people tempted to get their nails done this Christmas.

Think this would be better in chat…….

solid red.

SalmonOnTheRock · 17/11/2022 16:50

Red and white and one or two of them will have a different shade of red, with a white blob for a bobble hat a la Santa.

@19lottie82 who made you the forum police? Christ OP, don't apologise to her! Post where you want - who cares?

I'd go solid red, midnight blue, black and glitters too

SalmonOnTheRock · 17/11/2022 17:03

Actually just googled and it works really well on pale French manicure pink.

I would only do one or two and skip the sparkly chip.

TimeForFika · 17/11/2022 17:05

Oo I fancy gold and sparkly.

SirenSays · 17/11/2022 17:06

I'm probably going to do silver snowflakes and either candy canes or snowmen statement nails

CanYouFeelMyHeart · 17/11/2022 17:06

Black. Goes with everything, looks awesome, suits my all year round middle aged emo vibes 🖤

catsonahottinroof · 17/11/2022 17:12

I might have a soft red with gold details on some fingers next time, which might last until Christmas.
Other ideas from what people I know are thinking of: navy blue with a slight sparkle effect with silver stars nailart on some fingers, cream with gold snowflakes on some fingers, dark red, dark green. Definitely get silver and gold for nailart etc.

I’m a nail tech. sparkly red and gold are always the favourites, year after year.

Stressedmum2017 · 17/11/2022 17:40

I'm gonna get like a real frosty blue with the powder and some gems! Will change them again before christmas though will probably have white and gold chrome.

OoooohMatron · 17/11/2022 17:41

I'm thinking sparkly red with gold tips.

BashfulClam · 17/11/2022 17:42

Red and white candy cane stripes.
