Nails are making a BIG splash this year. Hit shows like HBO’s Euphoria and TNT’s Claws have brought wildly inventive nail designs to the forefront and now everyone wants nails that are fabulous and on point. After two years of the pandemic blahs, we’re all ready to dress up and have a little fun, and that includes with our nails. Let’s look at some predictions for what will be trending in nails this year.
Trending Nail Styles
Artistic Designs. Nail art is going to be big this year, with fancy and creative designs incorporating images depicting waves, geodes, the night sky and more. Jewels, stickers, 3D features and other wearable nail art will be on display. The sky’s the limit!
Long, square shapes. Super-pointed claws are out. Modern trend-setting gals know that square-tipped nails are all the rage, and this year they will be longer than ever. Stimulate the strong, healthy nail growth needed to rock this style by adding some Duri Rejuvacote treatment to your nail care regimen. Need a little boost for stronger nails? Take a multivitamin formulated specifically for hair, skin and nails like Phytophanere.
Matte finishes. For a truly sophisticated nail look, eliminate ultra-shiny finishes and make your nails matte. Any polish can be given the matte treatment with a topcoat of Londontown Kur Protective Matte Coat.
Ombre blending. If you’re intimidated by some of the more complicated designs, ombre nails are a look that almost anyone can achieve (see inset). You just need a base coat color, your darker color that you want to blend into, a clear top coat and a makeup sponge. Follow this ombre Wiki tutorial for a step-by-step guide to achieve this very cool look.
Trending Nail Colors
