Want to wear the metallic trend right now? Then all you need is one of these new nail colours…
This is a Marie Claire Advertorial
The catwalks shone bright with metallic glamour this season, as everyday outfits and evening pieces were injected with an intense hit of glitz and shimmer. And just as the trend spilled over into everything from ‘70s to utility chic, it has also emerged as a big nail art must-have.
Much more low-key, but still packing a punch, the new metallics are no longer just in silver tones: Stretching from pastel shades to midnight hues, this spring has thrown some surprising colours into the mix.
Giving yourself a metallic manicure is also easier than it is with flat colour: The fine, courser texture of a metallic nail colour is far more forgiving and smudges and streaks will barely notice, meaning you can achieve a more professional-looking finish, without heading to the salon.
If you want to trial the trend straightaway, start with a light bronze, which sits somewhere between the gold and silver spectrum, to instantly give your look that SS15 edge. Unexpected and totally sexy, pale bronze is the new nude and suits any skin tone. We recommend Black Diamond nail polish by Azature in Bronze Diamond, which will complement any outfit.
A subdued metallic shade is perfect for the office, while a darker, more brooding colour will work well after hours. Inky hues might not immediately bring summer to mind, but this year, you’ll be wearing them regardless. Every colour from chocolate to tropical green and navy to midnight black is getting an SS15 makeover with glimmering new finishes to instantly update your digits.
Use a mix of summer’s hot metals to give your manicure an ombre makeover. Coat nails in a pink glitter and follow with an upward sweep of intense black glitter for a professional-looking finish. Black Diamond nail polish by Azature in pink and black will give you the desired effect.
However you try it, metallic nail colour is an absolute must-have this season, so get your metal on with a brand new manicure…
