With all the variety of designs and a wide choice of shades of varnishes and decorative elements, this type of nail art has not lost popularity for many years in a row. Minimalist nails are the choice of lovers of restraint in everything, the design can be summer, fall, winter and spring.

Minimalist Nail's Perfect Palette

Minimalist nail design is characterized by unobtrusive design and decor, where there are no sharp transitions. The coating is very neat, as a rule, these are flesh-colored, nude, calm shades that do not irritate. But this does not mean that the nail plates should be monochrome. To make a stylish and original manicure, you can use accents such as dots, stripes, simple figures, dotted lines, zigzags, etc.

The uniqueness of minimalist nails is achieved by simplicity, precision of execution and moderation in all details. The popularity of this choice is growing every year.

To create a beautiful minimalist style coating, it is recommended to give preference to the following shades:

  • any grayscale;
  • beige, nude;
  • pastel;
  • sand;
  • brown and lilac in muted tones;
  • soft pink;
  • dusty shades (powder, olive).

The classic combination of black and white will never go out of fashion. This is a great option for a minimalist nail design. The combination of black with gold and silver is also in fashion. And if you choose bright colors, such as red, they should be diluted with white in large quantities.

Trendy Options for Minimalist Nail Art

When choosing a minimalist style for long nails, the coating can be either monochromatic or diluted with decorations and stylish accents. The most popular options:

  • Dotted accents. This is a simple solution that does not require much imagination to create voluminous structures or decorative patterns. Design with dots of different sizes and colors create original and stylish designs. This option is especially popular when glossy dots are made on a matte nail coating.
  • Thin lines. Chaotically placed parallel or intersecting thin lines allow you to make the desired accents on a pale base. This gives a special charm to the nails, visually lengthens it if used on short nails.
  • French. Classic French manicure with a neutral base and a white line on the edge of the plate makes the design strict and laconic. You can also combine a soft pink shade and nude tones, which complement each other perfectly.
  • Geometry. Different variations of geometric shapes, lines, stripes and other elements in small quantities look great on nude varnishes.
  • Different textures. Thanks to the successful combination of matte and glossy coatings, you can create stylish and fashionable designs, which are at the peak of popularity today.
  • Ombre and gradient. A gentle transition of muted shades is an ideal solution for minimalist nails. Here it is important to choose colors to match your skin tone or clothing color.
  • Highlighting one or two fingers. When choosing a dark color of varnish to cover the nail plates, it is better to make several fingers light. And when choosing a nude varnish, for one finger you can take black, graphite, dark blue. The main thing is that the contrast is neat. This simple solution looks very stylish and unusual. You can do a manicure with faces on one nail.
