Autumn is getting closer and that is excellent news for lovers of trends. Orange colors begin to take over our closet, hairstyles and haircuts become more important than in summer and nail designs in the shades and textures of the season take command. In fact, speaking of manicures, in the coming months finishes that simulate precious stones will reign, as well as metallic touches that will fill your look with glamor.
If you don't believe us, check out our report on trending nail designs for fall 2021 and let yourself fall in love with the variety of styles out there. Ready to take screenshot?
metallic glam
Do you love that your nails have a subtle touch of glitter? Foil or metallic foil applications are the fall trend you should try. Whether you apply the detail to one part of the nail or just the tip for a French manicure, this glitter accent will add an ultra-glam touch to your look.
mix&match
The different prints on each nail (Pinterest style) will continue to reign between now and the end of 2021. In autumn, prints with pastel colors, fruits, flowers, geometric figures and organic lines are the ones we will be seeing the most. Of course, since it has so many shapes and shades, we recommend you use this mani combining it with neutral, basic or denim garments.
precious stones
And the award for the most original nail design of the fall is… the gemstone finish! All that style of mani that simulates the texture of marble, pearls, pearly shells, jade or any other type of precious stone, is a trend that yes or yes you should try in the coming months.
mix of finishes
The key to having a winning nail design in fall 2021 is to combine a part of your nails with shiny polish (the traditional one) and other areas with a matte, shimmer or glitter finish. The more difference you see between each one (and the more harmony you achieve as a result) the better it will be!
effect powder
Have you ever seen those nail videos where they apply a powder, buff it off with a cotton pad, and the mani is left with a mirror, metallic, or iridescent finish? Well, this will be one of the strongest trending nail designs for fall 2021. Ideally, you should get it done at a beauty salon to make it perfect, although you can also buy the pigments online and follow a tutorial at home. . It's up to you!
french tips
The French tip will continue to be a trend in autumn, only now it will be much more fun and playful. Forget the classic straight white line and, better, go for tips with wavy stripes, diagonal tips and different colors on each nail. What do you think of this idea?
Lines + almond tip
This nail combo will also make you succeed in autumn not only because it is a trend, but also because it is extremely elegant to use on any occasion depending on the length and color of the lines you use. Our recommendation? Use the almond-shaped nails with a medium length, leave the base transparent, paint a couple of white lines and draw another line next to it in the color that you are going to use the most in the week.
leopard-print
Of all the animal prints out there, leopard takes the lead in fall 2021. The most sophisticated way to wear it is by putting the print on one nail and leaving the rest in neutral tones, although you can break the rules and use more tones, even cakes, if you're not afraid to play with this mix.
Abstract colors and shapes
Abstract shapes that are not stains, but not geometric figures either, are among the nail designs that will gain the most importance in fall 2021. Paint them on a transparent layer and choose primary colors (or your favorites) to give life and personality to your manicure.
autumn ombré
Coffee is one of the trending nail colors for fall 2021 that really can't be missing from your collection this season! With this range you can create amazing designs that can range from the most complex, such as precise lines and illustrations, to the most simple, such as ombré in shades of brown.
yin and yang
Black and white are colors that are present in every season of the year and this fall is no exception. Now, they will be worn together representing the duality of yin and yang, no matter if you apply them to the whole nail or to a part of it. Would you try it or did you like another nail design on the list better?
