I Swear, These 6 Trendy Nail Art Designs Are Gonna Be Huge In 2023
Are you convinced yet? Great, because I spent hours scouring through Instagram to bring you this compilation of the finest stylish manicure designs and ideas for 2023.
The “Clean Girl Aesthetic” Is The Vibe
To be completely honest, the desire for healthy-looking hair came after a time of strict upkeep and grooming, and now nails are doing the same. In light of this, I made sure to adopt the 2023 trend of minimal manicures, which showcase clean, flawless nails that have been perfectly polished. This nail art trend would definitely appeal to you if you’re a minimalist. Let me tell you, for clean, basic nails, colours like OPI’s Bubble Bath and Love Is In The Bare (nude pink) are terrific. These hues enhance the nails while masking flaws for a neat, manicured, and fresh aesthetic. If you prefer low-maintenance everyday nails? This one’s got you sorted.
Pop Art Nail Inspo
The most recent manicure fad to sweep social media is pop art, or “cartoon nails,” which is personally taking over my Instagram feed in a number of ways. Let me tell you, this fascinating design has a one-dimensional finish with a three-dimensional effect. This nail art design is best served to those who find art in everything. That being said, it looks best when painted with bright, bold colours, with a black outline and white accents painted with nail polish.
Barely There Frenchie
In 2023, French manicures will be even more popular than they were in 2020. By the end of this year, French manicures will be extremely thin and natural. Consider the barely visible, delicate white tips that give your hands and nails an elegant, sophisticated look. These little strokes are also applied in reverse French fashion, which is equally effective and straightforward. I’m booking a mani appointment STAT, see you later.
Nail Accents Are My New Obsession
Rhinestones, glitter, and the matte and gloss topcoats are just a few of the whimsical designs that will be prominent in textural mani accents in 2023. If nail art isn’t your thing, these basic, understated embellishments, like a reverse French with a line of glitter hugging the cuticle or a crystal as a dot on each nail, are a simple way to hop on the trend.
Subtle Chrome For The Minimalists
Chrome does not always imply bling. Chrome, but not as you know it, will be popular in 2023, just like other types of nail polish, signalling the shade’s complete evolution. To give nails a glossy, healthy appearance, simply use chrome over opaque and sheer base colours. The summer’s glazed doughnut nail fad, which was motivated by Hailey Bieber’s excessively dazzling manicure, has been reinvented as the subtle chrome nail art trend. Consider a milky colour with chrome on top for that enviable glaze and gloss.
Nail Jewellery Is In
In 2023, nail piercings and other accents with a jewellery-inspired aesthetic will be popular. 2022’s shorter nail lengths will be replaced with longer ones that are excellent for piercing and embellishing with dangling crystals to make a genuine fashion statement. Pair those accessories with a simple, clean mani to draw attention to them. Practical? Maybe not. Attention-grabbing? Certainly.
