Every time I sit in the salon chair for my next manicure, I frantically wrack my brain for any recollection of trends or viral designs I may’ve seen online. If this applies to you as well, fear not.
We have three of the most popular manicure trends listed below, with the polishes you’ll need to achieve them at home.
Modern french
Nails are an easy way to tap into major seasonal trends. Softer hues, like baby pink, milky white and peachy coral, are a seamless fit in the shift towards quiet luxury. Embrace ease and simplicity – think sleek finishes, minimalist nail art, shorter lengths and sophisticated updates to classic styles. To elevate this look further, opt for a French manicure.

Pastel power
Pastels offer a romantic and whimsical vibe. They’re very feminine, so a short, rounded curve is preferable to a blunt square edge on the nail. One or two versatile colour choices will emphasise minimalism. Shades of lemon-yellow and lavender are seasonal favourites, adding a subtle kiss of colour and perfectly complementing radiant, sun-kissed skin.

Cool chrome
Glazed, glassy and lip gloss-like shine are still going strong in the nail world, echoing the beauty trends that have dominated skin and hair. Glass nails typically start with a clear or semi-opaque milky base, then are finished off with a layer of reflective chrome for a luminous effect.
