These Are The Only 2023 Nail Trends You Need To Know About
Amplified Velvet Nails
Velvet nails were all over the ‘gram last year and the trend isn’t going anywhere in 2023. Velvet nails are achieved by using a magnet over shimmery nail paint to create a velvet-like finish. This year, however, we are going to take the trend up a notch by adding foils, stones, and textured glitters on top of velvet nails.
Nail Stickers
Similar to press-on nails, nail stickers are a fuss-free way to add some fun elements to your digits. You can apply a nude nail paint hue all over your claws and add stickers atop it to take your mani game from zero to hundred in a matter of seconds.
Airbrushed Nails
Aura nails were hogging the beauty spotlight during the last quarter of 2022 and will continue to rule supreme. We’re getting good vibes from these aura nail art designs. The manicure is created using an airbrush so it’s best to book an appointment with your nail technician if you wish to copy it because DIY-ing it looks a tad bit tasking.
Sensorial Nails
We could admire this sensorial nail art all day long! Juicy, water-droplet nails are gonna be huge this year. Ever since we came across this design, we’ve been itching to copy it. Try this before everyone else gets the hype and you’re sure to rake in endless compliments.
Milk Tones
Mani-loving queens, have you got the memo? Milky is the new nude. The milky nude manicure has been sported by the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Victoria Beckham, and Hailey Bieber and is gonna be ‘It’ this year. Plus, it’s super easy to DIY. Just coat your nails with shiny white nail paint and you’re good to go. If you are going for a glazed vibe, opt for pearlescent white nail polish.
French Illusion Nails
French illusion nails are cropping up on our FYPs right now, and it’s set to eclipse all others in popularity in 2023. The ombre effect creates a three-dimensional look to the nails an illusion of shadow and light. We’re indisputably obsessed!
