While certain hair and makeup looks can be described as effortless (think: (beachy waves and no-makeup makeup), nail art seems to be anything but. It has a reputation for being bold, graphic, and nearly impossible to DIY unless you are a professional manicurist. However, just like the low-key hair and makeup trends we love, we’ve discovered that simple yet stylish nail art designs do exist. In fact, minimalist nail art can be as equally as impressive as its colorful, intricate design counterparts.
More so, these minimalist nail designs can be customized to your own personal style, whether you swear by neutrals or want a pop of color that’s still relatively subtle. A few favorites? Neon French tips and a half-and-half chocolate brown and beige pattern that’s a dead match for our favorite oat milk latte.
