Below you will find the most interesting, creative ideas for manicure 2022 with a bull. Don’t be afraid to experiment, because you can always combine the symbol of 2022 with any design.
Bright red
We have repeatedly repeated the fact that red has become a true classic.
There are ladies who do exclusively red manicure from time to time. There are those who do not like scarlet shades because they are too bright. But it is very difficult to argue with the fact that red is one of the most popular colors not only for celebrations, but also for every day. Well, for the winter holidays, red will be the most New Year's color. Especially if you complement the scarlet background with a pattern in the form of a Christmas candy cane or a white Christmas ball. You can also draw a white snowflake on a red background - the combination of white and red is truly one of those that are immediately associated with winter.
New Year's design with a pattern
Do you think that even such a painting is boring for New Year’s days? Then decorate your nail plates with a mosaic of rhinestones, sequins, stucco figures - Snowman, Snow Maiden, Christmas tree balls, icicles... It is for such cases that thin feathers and other elegant accessories attached to the design are suitable.
This bold nail design will perfectly complement your chosen carnival look. And really: when else can you give yourself the freedom to look the way you want, if not for the New Year?
Deep black
Black is also one of the most popular colors for celebrating the New Year. And it’s even better if the black polish or gel polish has shimmer - small iridescent sparkles that make the black manicure less gloomy and add shine. Black looks just as advantageous in combination with gold and silver. Don't forget that the color of the glitter will depend on what jewelry you wear. If they are white metal, go for silver glitter. If it's yellow, it's gold, of course. You can also choose colored sparkling glitter if you have rings and rings with colored stones on your hands.
New Year's manicure for round and almond-shaped nails
Round and almond-shaped nails are considered the most versatile shape for short nails. Any color scheme is suitable for this design, but you can highlight a design with holes, which will look especially advantageous on such nails.
Thus, despite stereotypes, a manicure with short nails can remain practical, but at the same time look elegant.
Don't forget that your New Year's nail design should match the style of your outfit and hairstyle. If you have chosen a laconic and simple dress for the party, the pattern on your nails can be sophisticated and complex. If the dress has an intricate design, decorated with rhinestones, embroidery and additional accessories, give preference to simple and laconic types of manicure.

Depending on the shade of blue polish you choose, it can be light and barely noticeable or bright, extremely effective and a little mysterious.
