If you’re looking for a winter manicure that embodies the spirit of the season without screaming ‘ Christmas ’ then we’ve found just the thing for you. ‘Frosty’ pearl designs are the perfect way to incorporate some winter whites into your nail designs without looking too stark, and nail artist Simu of @Simlynail on Instagram gave the perfect easy-to-follow tutorial on how to create the ultimate swirled icy design.
Captioning the video: “Pearly nails for winter? It’s giving ice rink”, Simu showed exactly how she’d created the frosty-looking design, which included both full nails and more subtle French tips, and the good news is it's surprisingly easy to do at home.
In the video, Simu uses her thumbnail to demonstrate her clever design, first painting her nails in a pale pink base coat before adding a slick of white-toned nail polish that has a pearlescent shine to it.
The exact nail varnish she used is the beetles Gel Polish Pearl White Gel Nail Polish, £7.99 here, although if you’re planning on create plenty of different frosty, pearl-inspired nail art, the SUPWEE Pearl Gel Nail Polish Set, £14.99 here, has six different pearly hues that are perfect for creating a whole host of different designs.
