Oat Milk Latte Nails Are Trending in 2024
As we transition into fall, it’s time to switch up your manicure. While classic pastel French tips and nude nail colors remain great options, Tortoiseshell nails have quickly become increasingly popular choices.
Oat milk latte nails have gained increasing popularity as an alternative to traditional nude polish. Their creamy beige hue complements multiple skin tones while creating a clean girl aesthetic.
Chocolate Milk
If pastel pink strawberry milk nails or the ballet-tutu hues of last year have you feeling uninspired, take a sip from this sweet new manicure trend: chocolate milk nails! Like their namesake drink, chocolate milk nails give off a natural vibe with shades of brown that resemble Hershey’s syrup for an organic appeal.
Be it French tips or mixing different shades of brown to create an ombre effect, this shade makes for sweet nail art that will remind you of morning coffee. Add an edge with matte finishing for something different!
This style looks exquisite on all nail shapes, but long extensions make this manicure especially alluring as they allow the color variations to really pop. As opposed to darker hues that can wash out shorter nail lengths, warm neutral colors will keep your complexion radiant and balanced – you could also spice it up further by using glitter or shimmer top coat.
Peach Fuzz
Peach Fuzz was chosen as the 2024 Pantone Color of the Year and makes for a striking nail color choice. This soft rosy hue offers an excellent alternative to bright pastels while fitting seamlessly with minimalist mani trends such as those being witnessed nowadays.
Hanna recommends pairing it with delicate designs like bows or pearls for maximum impact.
Minimalist manicures remain in style in 2024. Eunice Park of Apres Nail notes latte and bubble bath nails (where clear, glossy polish is painted over natural tips) perfectly encapsulate this trend, while she anticipates adding layers of textures for an eye-catching shine finish reminiscent of Sabrina Carpenter.
Neutral Neutrals
Neutrals may not be flashy colors, but they’re versatile enough for everyday wear. A neutral manicure looks classy and always in fashion; and this coffee-inspired look is the perfect example. This white set features silver confetti as an eye-catching detail along with subtle gap designs for an ultra minimalistic vibe.
Chrome nails remain a key trend (catch Dua Lipa’s mirror-like version, Hailey Bieber’s chocolate brown chromatic set and BLACKPINK’s Jennie’s gold accents for proof), but now boasting an updated twist. Instead of full metallic glory, try opting for nude polish with metallic trimming for an altogether different approach to this season’s trend.
Brown polish has quickly become one of the go-to neutral nail colors thanks to its classic yet contemporary appeal. Brown hues have quickly made waves in fashion circles thanks to their timeless charm; “your nails, but better” shades such as this luxurious hue are ideal options for fall 2024 and beyond. One stylish gradient style combines multiple shades of brown in an easy and elegant gradient effect for an easy and timeless style statement.
Classic Neutrals
As we near the end of another summer of bright pinks and pastels, now is an opportune time for classic neutral nails. A clean white manicure with soft line art overlay is a timeless and sophisticated style that pairs well with any ensemble.
Tom Bachik of JLo’s manicurist created for her an eye-catching neutral taupe with a hint of rose for Fashion Week by inverting lighter shade tips into crescent moon shapes above her cuticle – creating an exclusive and memorable look!
Olive green is another neutral that’s garnering plenty of buzz this season, offering both bold and subtle qualities at once. Try wearing it on full set nails for an understated yet sophisticated look.
