There’s nothing like repping one of New Year’s most popular colors — the color silver. To take it a step further, choose a glitter silver shade, similar to the popular shiny ball used in New York’s Times Square area celebration. The base for this nail design compares to a French manicure — be sure to add some cute sparkle details.

Gold is another nail shade that had to make its way to the list. A glitter gold shade is used on the small and ring fingers. Then, the other three fingers next to it can have a swirl-like pattern to keep your New Year’s Eve nails exciting.

This nail design is an advanced level one but it highlights the festive New Year’s Eve vibe. A nude color is used as the base color and gold/white colors are used for the nail details. Throughout the nail design, cute mini fireworks, champagne cups, and a clock striking midnight are the nail design’s details shown.

If you’re a fan of ombre, this look should be your go-to for New Year’s Eve. The nail design starts with a nude color and then transforms from a light to dark purple/black color. Glitter can be added to the bottom to represent the confetti and champagne — two of New Year’s Eve’s significant elements.

Although it’s not Christmas anymore, there is still a way to carry the festive vibes over to New Year’s Eve. The best thing about this design is that since we are technically in winter — this snowflake nail design represents the season’s vibes. White nail polish is used to outline the snowflake shapes with a nude color as the base.
