It’s midnight blue, with its snowflake designs, that really encapsulates the quiet beauty of a clear, crisp winter’s night.

It’s a bold color yet one that carries a calming association – reassuring as the still of a snowy night.

The secret to this regal look is the blue gradient which you must master.

Using the darkest shade at the base of your nail, proceed to lighter shades at the tip.

The effect is breathtaking and ice-cool!

And yet, the masterpiece isn’t over. Once you’re done applying the gradient, it’s time to take care of your matte finish.

This means, next and most importantly, you need the top coat.

Royal blue is no passing trend, it’s a deep, rich shade of blue that’s perfect for the coldest of seasons and the sparkly effect of the rhinestones, again, is impossible to ignore.

To master this look, consider the following:

Rhinestone placement: play around.

Put that rhinestone on top of the bail, in the middle, or stacked so that there’s quite a cluster on top which gives the illusion of movement.

It’s all about style!

Shades of blue: don’t stick to just one. For more depth and dimension, use lighter or darker shades.
