Merry and Bright Holiday Manicure featuring Holo Taco Freezer Burn

I recently reorganized my entire nail polish collection, and in the process found the Zoya Nail Polish Beachy Brights Collection. This collection of six neon nail polishes was released in the summer of 2023. I was really drawn to the red and green shades, and thought they would make a fun holiday manicure. I also wanted to try Holo Taco Freezer Burn, which I recently got on Black Friday. I thought these polishes would combine well to create a merry and bright holiday manicure!

I began my manicure with Zoya Alora and Avani. Alora is a bright red nail polish with pink undertones, and Avani is a neon lime green. Unfortunately, neither of these polishes is currently available on the Zoya website for purchase. I hope they get restocked, because the formulas are great! Both shades are opaque in two coats, and they applied really well. I alternated red and green on each nail for this look.

Holo Taco Freezer Burn

I then topped my manicure with one coat of Holo Taco Freezer Burn. This is an iridescent blue shimmer polish. I am thrilled with how Freezer Burn looks on the nails! I wouldn’t normally call myself a shimmer manicure fan, but this polish really adds a fun touch to the nails. Plus, it works perfectly to give this holiday nail polish look a frosty and sparkly finish.

This will likely be my last Christmas manicure this year, and I am loving the result! It’s so much fun to do bright colors in the winter months. Something about the neon shades really cheer me up whenever I look at my nails! If you are looking for an easy holiday manicure that looks super festive, I highly recommend alternating red and green nails and adding a special effects topper from your collection.

My 2014 Holiday Manicures! | 3 Nail Polish Looks

Happy Tuesday! Today I wanted to show you the three manicures I’ve worn so far this holiday season. I’ve already reviewed some of these polishes, so I will leave links to those blog posts alongside each manicure. I hope these nail polish looks bring you some inspiration as we head into the New Year! That reminds me – stay tuned for an exciting announcement very soon about my Annual New Year’s Eve Manicure Contest! For now, let me show you my 2014 holiday manicures.

NYC New York Color – Queen of the City

NYC New York Color – Queen of the City [REVIEW]

I started off the holidays with a red that isn’t so “in your face” Christmas. I really love Queen of the City because of its unique shade and shimmery formula. It looks amazing with my fair skin tone, and goes with a ton of different outfits as well. If you’re looking for an edgier manicure this holiday, grab a deep shade like this one.

Zoya – Giovanna Zoya – Giovanna [REVIEW]

Next I went for more of a true Christmas color with an emerald green polish. Giovanna is just perfect for this time of year! It’s festive but still really classy. You can also use Giovanna for nail art as well. I do recommend a nice layer of base coat with this polish, though, as it tends to stain a bit.

Glitzology – Island of Misfit Toys

Chrome Girl – Birthday Suit [REVIEW]

Finally, I am currently wearing a combination of Island of Misfit Toys and Birthday Suit. I got this Glitzology polish two years ago, but never used it! Unfortunately, this indie polish brand is now out of business, but to create a similar look use a glitter polish that contains fine silver glitters and larger multi-colored glitters. Feel free to use multiple glitter polishes if necessary! I decided to go with a pastel pink base so that all of the glitters would really stand out. It’s not quite your typical Christmas manicure, but I’m thrilled with the result!
