Fashionable nail design is a great way to get a lot of positive emotions and make changes to a boring image. A new gentle manicure has a beneficial effect on the internal state, has a calming effect and promotes a positive outlook on the surrounding reality.
Neutral pastel shades with discreet, laconic decor are very practical. They do not require careful selection of a wardrobe or long thoughts about jewelry and accessories. They are invariably aristocratic, discreet and elegant. Suitable for nails and fingers of any shape, visually correcting shortcomings of too wide or fragile hands. The length of the plates also does not matter: nude, soft pastel colors look great in any version.
For each new season, nail industry masters offer samples of design art for manicures in a gentle style, created in accordance with fashion trends.

- acrylic stucco molding to match the main background.

Delicate manicure 2022-2023: wonderful nail design ideas that you will definitely want to try
Minimalist style of delicate nails
Strict, elegant minimalism is always in trend. It is simple to implement; choosing a picture or a light pattern that suits its meaning is not difficult.
- Thin white or black, bright lines look great.
- You can place dots with paint or stick on single rhinestones and crystals.
- Laconic thematic designs – hearts, stars, crowns, flowers, etc. – excite interest.
- The original thin jacket, single and multi-colored, is in demand.
Delicate French for short nails
To create a delicate manicure, it is best to make a French manicure in pastel colors - an innovation for those who are tired of the classics. Laconic drawings and decorative elements will add a touch of extravagance. You can also develop the art-french theme. That is, decorate the tips of the nails with delicate patterns in the style of abstraction, geometry or natural themes.
Delicate shades with kamifubuki
Confetti, with its multifaceted shapes, shades and sizes, is a wonderful tool for nail design. Shiny elements reflect light rays, shimmering in the light, like stars in space. They are placed in different ways:
- chaotic and in strict order;
- filling the plate completely, with large gaps or only partially;
- laying out longitudinal, diagonal, transverse lines and ornaments.
To emphasize the chosen main tone of the gel polish, to give it greater depth and charm, kamifubuki choose color-to-color. If you want something bright and festive, play with contrast by decorating neutral-light plates with multi-colored confetti.
The most delicate pearl manicure
A pearl manicure will be the perfect complement to a summer look; it looks simply gorgeous on tanned hands. Delicate, and at the same time mirror, shiny nail design is an absolute trend for 2022. You can achieve a pearl design using a special rub, which is rubbed into the surface of the nails, on top of the gel polish. This rub will give your manicure a beautiful pearl shine and delicate pearlescent finish.
Pearl manicure looks especially beautiful in white, soft pink, blue, beige, and lilac colors.
Delicate manicure with geometric patterns
Geometry can also be entertaining and surprising - this was proven by the developers of nail designs in 2022. Individual, author's works with original drawings on each nail plate are in fashion. On a discreet glossy or matte surface they look fresh and relevant:
- contrasting black and white lines;
- colored shapes and stripes lined with foil or sparkles.
The geometric pattern perfectly complements the monochrome palette, while leaving the manicure just as restrained and strict. Figures and lines painted with black paints on a nude surface look especially elegant. This is the optimal choice for those who appreciate the sophistication of simple solutions.
Always appropriate and fashionable: gentle manicure for gentle women
A gentle manicure can be called universal, because a natural palette of shades is used to create it.
A gentle manicure is usually performed in a discreet design, emphasizing the natural beauty of women’s hands, which makes it possible to choose this type of manicure as a win-win option.
Delicate manicures for short nails are in fashion. A beautiful, gentle manicure for long nails, of course, is still chosen by many women, but still, in modern nail art, a gentle manicure on nails of moderate length (3-5 mm) is more relevant.
As for the shape, a delicate manicure on almond-shaped and oval-shaped nails looks elegant and sophisticated. The soft square or squoval shape, which is liked by so many representatives of the fair sex, does not lose its relevance.
Delicate French manicure
French was first introduced to the world in 1978, and immediately became synonymous with excellent taste, elegance, and style. Over the past few seasons, this versatile and practical technique has consistently been at the top of the popularity ratings. Nail designers offer to diversify the classic design with the following variations:
- white patterns, lace on a transparent background;
- color images, thematic pictures on 1-2 fingers;
- multi-colored, laid out “smiles”;
- oblique design of the edge of the nail;
- cobweb, two- and multi-color edges, foil, rhinestones.
French looks great on short nails, visually lengthening them. Allows you to take a creative approach to design, trying unusual, bold solutions and combinations.

Fashion does not limit girls in choosing colors. But still, fashionistas should take seasonality into account if they want to always be aware of the top nail art trends of 2022.

Spring is a time of romance and tenderness. Therefore, spring trends emphasize femininity and lightness, which is primarily reflected in manicure colors.
Pink remains the constant leader in all its shades. But it's better to choose:

Summer is an extravaganza of bright colors, among which neon will dominate. And it doesn’t matter what tone. The main thing is that it is as bright as possible. This type of nail art is suitable for self-confident girls.
The current trend for summer 2022 is contrasting ombre. These can be absolutely crazy combinations:
- blue + fuchsia;
- lemon + turquoise;
- orange + light green.
This idea is good for flowy summer dresses.
Quite unexpectedly, lavender entered the 2022 trends. It is recommended to use it for a single-color glossy manicure. It falls into the category of everyday wear and suits all women.
Important! Manicure for the summer allows for any experiments. For short nails you can try stamping, decals, glitter and rhinestones.

in autumn
With the arrival of autumn, pay attention to deep and warm shades. They add elegance to the image, regardless of the chosen style of clothing.
Black color is especially relevant. Feel free to use it:
- for all nails or as an accent;
- with matte finish;
- in combination with a white jacket;
- diluting it with a moon manicure of the same color.
Active, strong and confident girls choose black. They are not afraid of attention from others. And always ready for something new.
Khaki is another fall must-have. It should be mixed with glitters and gold. Equally relevant are the golden accents introduced by:
- gel or varnish;
- foil;
- glitter;
- rubbing.
Khaki will suit almost all girls. But it is important that the manicure does not stand out from the overall image and matches the clothes.
Chocolate shade is the best manicure option for autumn for short nails. It is important to choose from a palette of tones:
- dairy;
- bitter chocolate.
They can be supplemented with “liquid metal” or made into a French jacket. Chocolate is considered a base color, so it is relevant in all situations.

in winter
Traditionally, cold weather brings cool shades with a transition to metal to the peak of fashion. And 2022 was no exception, defining several trends.
A stylish metallic jacket on a dark marsh base will last throughout the winter season. The main nuance of the manicure is the matte finish, which does not extend to the “smile”. This design looks great with snow-white chunky knit sweaters.
A good choice for winter would be light marble. It is difficult to create such an effect on your own, but craftsmen can easily create a texture that visually copies the cut of a stone. The design falls into the casual category and does not require selection of clothing.
Don't forget about the color blue. In 2022, deep indigo is relevant. It is complemented with a thick white pattern or rhinestones.
This type of nail art can be festive or made for a specific look. More often it is chosen by women over the age of 30 and very young girls.
