What’s the difference between ombre and gradient nails?
Gradient nails feature colors from the same family that go from lightest to darkest from nail to nail, whereas ombre nails typically fade from one color into another on the same nail horizontally or vertically.

Blue is a popular winter color and makes for an excellent choice for winter ombre nails. We have put together some beautiful blue manicures that include snowflake nail art and several shades of blue.

If you are looking for something more unique, try this chrome ombre mani. This frost-inspired look is subtle and classy, but gives “frozen” vibes we are loving!
Blue + Silver Split Ombre Nails
Most ombre manicures use a horizontal ombre technique. So we love this unique manicure for its use of a vertical ombre.
Transitioning from blue to a milky white, this manicure has the perfect winter look. Adding an iridescent top coat also instantly adds a touch of glamour.

Gold is a great go-to color choice for all the winter months, particularly the holiday season. If you are looking for the perfect gold ombre manicure, scroll on!
