It is the season of colours, literally. When we think about French manicure it is all about being subtle, but the latest trend that introduces a dash of colour to this classic style is fast finding takers across the world. This trend features the good ol’ French manicure but with coloured tips! S. Priya, a trainer at a leading beauty chain, says that
this is a hit with youngsters. “Many people have a fixed image in their minds when it comes to a French manicure — it is always about a pale base and white tips. However, with this trend it is possible to mix and match hues.”
Bright and bold colours are in this season. Explains Priya, “Yes, it is the season of colours, but people must be careful when it comes to using colours for a French manicure. Avoid darker shades, pair a pale base with subtle colours. For instance, purple is very hot this season and it also matches well with a pale base.” Experts add that another thing to keep in mind is that the colours must also complement one’s skin tone otherwise the entire manicure falls flat.
