You can’t go wrong with a holiday manicure, but there are a variety of decorative aesthetics to choose from. You can’t go wrong choosing a classic dark red polish. Not only does it lock in that cozy winter vibe, but it also looks great with just about anything, including a glamorous metallic gown.
On December 5th, Eva Longoria attended the opening ceremony of the Red Sea International Film Festival in Saudi Arabia wearing a plunging gold dress and matching sparkling cranberry nail polish.

Her long, round almond nails, made at Nail Sunny Salon, which has 13 locations around the world, are polished to perfection in a deep red hue and look just like they do when she walks the red carpet thanks to a barely visible I caught the light. A glittery top coat. You know how to roll cranberries in sugar in a festive way? Here’s the situation, minus the texture.

In true Longoria fashion, the remaining glamorous theme was “shining.” A gold shadow look by makeup artist Elan Bongiorno echoes the metallics of her plunging, off-the-shoulder dress, while a glossy nude lip complements the shine of her nails. Hairstylist Justin Marjan worked on the hair, pulling Longoria’s long, dark locks into a deep side part and creating an intricately twisted updo.
Another hint of the season is that hairstyles resemble taped gift ribbons. I’ll never be able to make it myself, but I’m always happy to receive it. It’s unclear exactly how Marjane created this sculptural updo, but Longoria’s hair was parted into a deep side part and swept into a pony, leaving a single strand of hair in the font area. Looks like it’s started. From there she twisted and wrapped the pony to form an intricate bun. The final touch was to gel and swoop the loose front piece back to join the rest of the bun.
While you may need to enlist the help of a professional to do Longoria’s hair yourself, her cranberry nails make for a festive manicure that’s easy to DIY in 10 minutes.
