1- Dotted Pastels
Treat your tips to the black glitter-dotted pastel is reminiscent of mint chocolate chip ice cream. This eye-catching look works best on shorter nails that mirror your cuticle shape. Dots look simple and elegant and you can also play around with the colors. Apply the base coat with a color of your choice and once it dries out, start putting dots on your nails with the help of any nail art dotting tools like toothpick. Again, the choice of color for dots is yours!
2- Celebrating Independence
Start with a sheer base and then alternate cyan, red, or gold to the half moon or tips with a diagonal color across. Keep your ring finger as the accent nail with an outlined gold star.
3- Woody Effect
Add an unexpected touch with a printed nail wrap in a mahogany wood design. Add blue and white diagonal stripes to the base as a nod to the nation’s colors
4- Starry Nights
Another easy simple design. Paint white stars randomly spread out (or use decals) and finish it off with a clear coat.
5- Sparkle Passion
Start with a red base coat and then sprinkle a pinch of glitter to the base of the nail. Finish it off with a clear top coat.
6- Rainbow Strips
A French manicure with bright colored stripes looks lovely and attractive. To create such stripes, all you need is a nail art striper pen or a thin brush – it all depends on how creative you are!
7- Snow White
Modern Family star Ariel Winter opted for snow white nails for the iHeartRadio Music Awards. We can’t be sure, but we think that’s a gun design on her ring finger.
8- Twisted French Manicure
For those of you who like to keep it minimilastic can go for this twisted french manicure. It is elegant and classy and can go with any dress. It’s absolutely hassle free!
9- The Show Stopper
This gorgeous Christian Louboutin nail art at the AW16 Cushnie & Ochs show during NYFW had us all swooning. It’s super easy to recreate and perfect for anyone who prefers understated designs.
10- Neon Lights
When digital print and neon colors are in, why not be a little innovative when it comes to our nails as well? The colors used for this nail art are absolutely trendy and funky. The trick is to neatly brush the colors and combine them to give a bright look. Avoid using too many bright colors. Or you can have neon-meets-nude nail look that totally kicks butt! It’s a great way to work trendy bold colors into your everyday look without seeming too flashy.
