The minimalist manicure

9 February 2016 by Beth Ryan

It’s fresh, it’s simple and it’s about to hit a nail bar near you. The minimalist manicure is quickly becoming our favourite new way to mix things up in the nail department. Sitting somewhere between nail art and negative space design (a look that’s been tipping the trend charts this season) you’ll find it offers the update your bored, winter fingers have been waiting for. Stick to pale pastels, industrial tones of grey or even simple flashes of metallic to get the look, and ask your manicurist to leave a section of your natural nail exposed. If you can’t go naked then an opaque nude gives the same effect. It’s this slither of naked nail that makes the manicure magic happen. Combine with etherial midi rings and elegant layered bangles for an achingly cool, straight-off-the-runway appeal.
