The designers have included several options to choose from. Let's look at two of them. The first is to take two pastel shades, and the second is to apply a molding or pattern with sugar polish on the edge of the nail against a background of pastel polish.
#2 French shellac with a pattern: decor ideas for every day
The topic of nail decoration is very pressing. Today, shades have faded into the background; their place has been taken by interesting and stylish decor. It is the choice of this or that pattern that determines how the nail art will ultimately look.
Among the trends of recent seasons are:
- decor with foil - use a stamp of manicure foil along the edge of the nail
- foil stripes - look chic in combination with a matte finish. The trend is a matte manicure with negative space, where the painted areas are separated from the “empty” ones using thin silver stripes.
- airbrush – drawing is done using an airbrush, which blows varnish onto the surface of the nails under high pressure. Using airbrush, you can depict haze on your nails, floristry, and other ornate patterns.
- dark decor – accents in the form of dark patterns on nails are especially popular today. The decor is done using sliders, stamping or hand painting. You can find examples of such nail art in the large photo selection at the end of the review.
Inspired by Hollywood
Stars are meant to sparkle, so the abundance of foil tape and rhinestones on their nails will not surprise anyone. But you can use a French jacket with rhinestones on yourself, no one will judge. Choose an original French style for short nails that differs from the standard one; the photo shows this 2022 design.

#4 Matte French shellac
The matte shellac finish is still under development, but the girls have found a way to make the glossy finish matte. For this, a transparent top coat is used, which will make your design soft and velvety in a matter of seconds.
Matte finish is very popular among girls:

- matte texture visually “calms” bright shades
- matte nail art harmonizes perfectly with rhinestones, silver and gold glitter, and bouillons
Smooth flow of tones from light to dark
The transition of tones within only one color, in horizontal or vertical design, is known. When creating, 1 tone is used, during the process it is diluted to obtain softer shades, or 2 similar tones. The originality of this technique allows you to play with different bright colors, because later they will be given softness by a weak and delicate tone. To create a pink manicure, scarlet is perfect; it will smoothly flow into a soft pink color.
If you want to create a gradient effect, it is advisable to prepare products that are similar in color. First of all, perform a hygienic procedure for cleaning the surface and removing the cuticle, then treat your hands with a special cream or oil. Then apply a base layer to the nail plate.
On a small piece of foil, apply strips of different colors in close proximity to each other, used in manicure, and begin application. Using a sponge, you need to transfer the dye, blot the previously drawn strips with it and reprint it onto the nail with patting movements.
The stripes should be painted differently for each application. After which they need to be allowed to dry thoroughly. Using a cotton swab or disk, remove all excess paint. And finally, coat the finished nail art with a colorless fixative.

Broken glass

Fashionable shades and shapes of nails

Please note that when mixing shades, you need to combine them correctly. Otherwise, the manicure will turn out tasteless.
As for the shape of nails, oval, almond-shaped, square with rounded edges are relevant in the new season.
Red Splendor

But there is one wonderful exception to this rule - this is a magnificent red varnish. Let us clarify that wine, burgundy, satin, cold and warm shades of scarlet are also trending.
Shellac with such a base is considered a win-win option for evening events. But if you focus on minimalism in design or choose a more modest dark shade, you can easily adapt the design to everyday looks - this way it will become a stylish accent.

Winning combinations with red lacquer as a base are obtained in a duet with black, gold or silver accents.
Another trending idea is a company with a plain red cover with kamifubuki in the shape of hearts. This principle results in a simple, but at the same time incredibly romantic design.
