Whether you’re a salon loyalist and have your nail tech booked up for the next 6 months, or you’ve converted to a DIY manicurist as your New Year’s resolution, looking for our next nail design will forever remain one of our favourite pastimes.
2023 saw us indulging our gourmand side, whether that was glazed doughnut nails or a blueberry milk manicure. This year, while nail trends will continue to look to the kitchen for inspo (foodies you can breathe a sigh of relief), they’re also looking towards the future, with a plethora of new-age designs and techniques. From Pistachio Latte to Glass Nails, have a scroll and save the nail designs set to be the biggest trends for 2024, and thank us later.
Pistachio Latte
The Matcha mani has been ousted in favour of the Pistachio Latte which trades block colours for a soft gradient.
Old Money Minimal
It might look simple, but don’t be fooled, it takes a lot of patience to get nails looking this perfect. The secret? Two coats of your favourite soft neutral pink and cuticle oil, applied three times a day.
Press Ons
Nail art at the salon can seriously do damage to our bank accounts, so this year we’re swapping hours in the nail chair for super easy press-ons with maximum impact.
Glass Nails
Obsessed with Glass Skin? Introducing Glass Nails, the latest glossy beauty trend born in Korea that gives the most mesmerising manicure.
Floating Frenchie
If you’re ever in doubt of the next nail trend, look to the runways. Staud debuted the Floating Micro Frenchie which looks chic no matter what your nail length.
Feel Your Aura
Piquing our interest last year, Aura Nails are sticking around for 2024. Whether you opt for muted, bold or bejewelled, there’s no doubt you’ll manifest a great mani.
Milk Bottle Mani
Sleek and understated, a soft milky shade is a fresh way to update your manicure.
Jelly Art
This vibrant manicure has a little bit of everything, making it perfect for the person who can never decide what to get when they’re in the salon seat.
Chrome Is Where The Heart Is
Even if you’re not a fan of Mercury in retrograde, you might want to give the metal another look as inspo for your next nail art, because these 3D chrome manicures are cool AF.
Pantone Peach
Peach Fuzz has been named as Pantone’s colour of the year for 2024, and we’ve got our sights set on peachy nails being the coveted shade for summer.
