5 Nail trends for Autumn

GERRY CUPIDO

WHILE our nails are small, we can still have so much fun getting creative with them. From various shapes to hundreds of colours to choose from and interesting textures to work with, the possibilities are endless.

However every season there are nail trends that take over the manicure scene and have everyone desiring “the look”.

Here are this season’s must-try nail trends.

French tips

It’s time for the classic French manicure look to once again go back to its minimalist roots. Keep the white tips short and add a high-gloss finish.

Half-moon

Still on the minimalistic trends, halfmoon nails are the simple nail trend that’s making a comeback. The look involves painting a single colour on the entire nail but leaving the half-moon at the base of your nail showing. The look works for all nail lengths and shapes.

Velvet

Velvet nails are perhaps the most luxe-looking trend of the season. The sumptuous texture elevates any colour from deep blues to shimmering silver and everything in between.

Red

Red is one of this season’s biggest colour trends. We’ve seen it on the runway all over Autumn-Winter 23 fashion week shows.

Micro

“Barely-there” is this year’s buzzword. From barely-there make-up to barelythere brows, beauty trends are taking a giant leap away from the over-thetop dramatic looks we’ve been seeing.
