We’ve nailed the best Christmas-inspired manicure ideas on Instagram here, but for those who shy away from the most glittery, extravagant and star-studded (literally) digits—fret not, we got you covered as well. If subtlety is your middle name and you’re one for minimalistic nail art (think negative space, reverse French manis, coloured tips etc), these 15 red and green nail art ideas may just be what you’re looking for.
