Your Step-By-Step Guide to Green Christmas Nail Designs

Step 1) Prep your nails following our recommended steps to ensure your nails are ready for applying the gel polish.

Step 2) Apply a layer of Base Coat to your natural nails and cure underneath our Pro LED Lamp for 30-60 seconds.

Step 3) Apply the Bauble Gel Polish over the cured base coat and cure again. We recommend applying 2-3 layers to build up opacity and make the turquoise shade pop – remembering to cure in between each layer.

Step 4) Dip your nail art brush into Break The Ice, picking up a small amount of the polish. Create the wavy lines over the turquoise base colour, drawing a combination of thick and thin waves. The key is to create the lines in one swoop, and clean up the line edges after.

Step 5) Once you're happy with your nail art, cure under your LED Lamp.

Step 6) Finish by applying a layer of your chosen Top Coat (we recommend our No Wipe Top Coat) and cure once more.

Step 7) Add a drop of Sweet Almond Nail & Cuticle Oil to your nails for nourishment.

Step 1) After prepping your nails, apply a layer of Base Coat Gel Polish and cure under our Pro LED Lamp for 30-60 seconds.

Step 2) Apply a swipe of Trapeze Artist to the surface of the Stamp It Out stamper, and place the tip of your nail into the polish on the cushion at a 45-degree angle. To get the curved French tip look, roll your nail as you stamp.

Step 3) Gently pull your nail from the stamper and cure under your LED Lamp again.

Step 4) For the snowflake nail art, use your Dotting Tool to create small white dots with Break The Ice. Create 3 rows of 3 dots to create a square, and use the Nail Art Brush to connect the dots. We've chosen to create these snowflake designs over the green French tips on the ring fingernail and thumbnail – but you can definitely switch it up!

Step 5) Cure your snowflake designs under the LED Lamp.

Step 6) Apply a layer of Top Coat to seal in your design and cure for a final time.

Step 1) Prep your nails by pushing back your cuticles, buffing, cleansing and dehydrating your nail plate ready for gel polish application.

Step 2) Apply a layer of Base Coat and cure under our LED Lamp for 30-60 seconds.

Step 3) Take Gold Digger and apply to your entire pinky fingernail, and create two bauble shapes on your ring and middle fingernail.

Step 4) Cure under your nail lamp for the same length time.

Step 5) Next, apply Trapeze Artist to your entire thumbnail and create a French tip on your index fingernail.

Step 6) Use the same polish to create another bauble shape on top of the Gold Digger shade on your middle and ring fingernails. Cure under your lamp.

Step 7) Create the snowflake nail art design by dipping your Dotting Tool into Break The Ice and connecting the dots together using the Nail Art Brush, following the same steps we laid out in the previous look.

Step 8) Cure under your LED lamp for 30-60 seconds again.

Step 9) Apply a Top Coat to finish and cure a final time.

Step 1) After prepping your nails, apply a Base Coat layer and cure under our LED Lamp for 30-60 seconds.

Step 2) Take your Green Velvet Polish and glide over your entire nail. Cure under the lamp again.

Step 3) Apply a layer of Top Coat, curing once more for a glossy finish.

Top tip: To build up the opacity and make the colour pop, apply 2-3 layers of Green Velvet, curing in between each layer for 30-60 seconds.

Step 1) Once you've prepped your nails, attach a paper form to your nails and glide the Builder Gel over your entire nail, extending the tip to your desired length.

Step 2) Cure under your Pro LED Lamp for 60 seconds.

Step 3) Build up strength by applying multiple thin layers – we recommend 2 or 3 in total – and remember to cure in between each layer for a further 60 seconds.

Step 4) Remove the paper form and file your Builder Gel extension into your perfect nail shape.

Step 5) Dip your Nail Art Brush into the Bauble Gel Polish and apply the shade to one side of your nail tip. We've also kept a slight curve to the tip, but you can create a straight line or any other shape you desire.

Step 6) Cure for 30-60 seconds.

Step 7) Finish with a layer of Top Coat and cure once more.

Step 1) After nail prep, apply your Fix 'N' Flash tips following our recommended steps. Donna has used our Short Square tips for this look, but you can also choose from our range of other shapes and lengths if you prefer.

Step 2) Once applied, take the Abyss Gel Polish and glide over your entire nail. Cure for 30-60 seconds under our Pro LED Lamp.

Step 3) Dip your Dotting Tool into Gold Digger, and create 2 dots going down the centre of your nail by gently tapping the tool onto your nail, as in Donna's design.

Step 4) Flash cure under your lamp for 15 seconds.

Step 5) Apply a layer of No Wipe Top Coat to your nails and finish by curing for a final time.
