Navy, Purple and Gold
Reproducing this chic look is surprisingly straightforward, despite its polished finish. Begin by selecting a navy, purple, and gold glitter nail polish shade. Start by painting your little finger, thumb, and index finger with the navy hue. Move on to the middle finger, where you’ll apply the purple shade, reserving the ring finger for the show-stopping gold glitter effect.
Purple Matte Nails
In many cases, choosing one bold color can be the most effective way to make your nail art stand out. While we’re particularly fond of the vibrant purple matte shade pictured above, there’s something to be said for consistency. To achieve this look, select your desired color and take care to apply an even coat to all of your nails. For a truly polished finish, follow up with a top coat.
Matte Navy Nails with Glittery Accent Nail
Elevate your look with a surprisingly easy yet striking manicure hack. By simply painting your entire nail bed a rich matte navy shade, you can create a stunning base for an even more impressive accent nail. To achieve this look, apply the navy polish to all of your fingernails, and then use a lighter blue glitter top coat to add a touch of glamour to just one or two nails – in this case, the ring fingers.
The contrasting colors will create a beautiful visual interest that’s sure to make your outfit pop.
Peach, White and Gold
The combination of just three nail colours can yield a truly stunning result. The look in question is achieved by pairing peach, white, and gold glitter polishes. To recreate this style, begin by applying the peach polish to your thumb, index finger, and pinky nails. Next, use the gold glitter polish on your middle finger, while reserving the white polish for your ring finger. For a finishing touch, carefully paint subtle gold chevrons on the white nails to complete the look.
Black, Grey and Silver Collection
This stunning nail art design boasts a mere three colors, yet packs a punch. The talented individual behind this masterpiece has chosen a sleek black, a versatile shark grey, and a show-stopping silver glitter. With impeccable attention to detail, she’s paired the silver glitter on the thumb and pinky fingers, the grey on the index fingers, and the black on the middle and ring fingers.
But what truly elevates this design is the addition of polka dots in the silver glitter on the ring finger nails, adding a playful touch to the overall aesthetic.
Nude Pink with Glitter Tips
Give a fresh spin to the classic French manicure by embracing a contemporary twist. Start by coating all your nails with a subtle nude pink shade, ensuring an even finish throughout. Next, take a stunning glitter polish and delicately apply it to the tips of your nails. Seal everything in place with a top coat, and you’ll be ready to turn heads with this unique yet elegant look.
Pale Pink to White Ombre
This stunning nail art look is surprisingly simple to achieve, requiring only two colours yet yielding a subtle yet sophisticated finish. To begin, paint your nails a soft, pale pink shade. Next, dampen a sponge with white polish and gently pat it along the tips of your fingernails, creating an ombre effect that adds depth and visual interest. Complete the look with a glossy top coat to seal in the colour and add shine.
Mauve Pointed Nails
To achieve the same polished look, it’s essential to begin by shaping your nails into the desired form. Start by gently curving the tips of each finger nail to create a smooth, curved point. Once you’ve achieved the perfect shape, apply your favorite nail polish in an even and consistent manner, making sure to cover all of your nails. The featured lady has opted for a stunning mauve hue, but feel free to choose any color that suits your style.
Curved Purple Nails
Choosing a single nail polish color and executing a flawless application can be incredibly empowering. This individual has opted for a stunning shade of purple, carefully painting each curved nail to achieve a luscious, high-gloss finish. To take the look to the next level, consider adding a top coat to seal in the color and add an extra layer of shine.
Nude and Gold Glitter with Gems
Transform your manicure with this stunning nail art design that requires only two colors and some bling! Begin by applying a matte nude polish to all your nails, except for the pinky and index fingers which will receive a coat of gold glitter. The pièce de résistance is the addition of stick-on gems in pretty patterns on the nude nails, resulting in a glamorous finish that’s sure to turn heads.
Red and Gold Glitter
This eye-catching nail art design brings our gallery full circle with its striking combination of deep red matte and gold glitter. To achieve this look, start by painting all your nails red, except for the index and ring fingers which you’ll transform into a stunning golden hue. The crowning touch is the arrow motif created on the ring fingers using the red paint. We’re smitten with these nail art designs – each one’s simplicity belies its stunning visual impact!
