Candy Apple Red

Who can say no to a red manicure? According to TikTok’s red nail theory, the shade has the power to turn heads, boost your confidence and even your mood. To get the full effect, it’s best to go with a bold and bright color like candy apple red and a high-gloss top coat for maximum shine.

Chocolate Brown

Brown manicures may have been an unexpected trend, but it’s clear that they’re here to stay. Whether deep and dark or creamy and smooth, chocolate polishes are ideal for creating a chic manicure. Like black, it can be sleek, but it has a softness that keeps them feeling rich and sophisticated.

Terracotta

Terracotta and sun-baked clay colors were one of autumn’s top nail trends. The shade embraces the seasonal hues of fall but feels fresher than pumpkin or nude. If you’re new to the color, try sporting it on short nails for a natural look.

Chrome

If there’s one nail trend that has staying power, it’s chrome. Season after season it’s continued to be popular, whether worn on its own or used for designs. Getting the look used to require a full set up of powders and polishing techniques, but many brands now offer polishes that deliver the same effect.

Two to try: ILNP Eclipse ($13), Cirque Colors Time Traveler ($10)
