Hold Your Autumn Manicure—the Bedazzling Trend Has Reached Our Nails
If your feeds are anything like mine right now, bedazzling is everywhere. From body gems adorning our limbs at summer festivals to beauty lovers bedazzling their makeup products with a smattering of multicoloured gemstones, it was only a matter of time before the Y2K-coded bling reached our manicures. And whilst we're at the end of summer, I don't see this nail art trend going anywhere. In fact, it's been quietly brewing since the spring, and it's a fun end-of-summer manicure to try for your next salon appointment.
Thankfully for us, the likes of Dua Lipa, Sabrina Carpenter and Kylie Jenner have all served us bedazzled nail inspo of late. I consider myself a bit of a nail minimalist, but even I'm tempted to try Dua's silver chrome polka dots, or even try my hand at Kylie's flower rhinestones below.
There's something nostalgic about reaching for rhinestones again, and after a long stint of bare nails, the bedazzling nail trend is not just welcoming back maximalist nails once more, but it also allows you to get creative with different designs. You can go all out with gems all over your nails, or opt for a couple of placed rhinestones for a more minimalistic look. If you're in need of some nail bedazzling inspo, scroll ahead for the best looks I've saved and how to get the look at home.
Bedazzled Nail Art Ideas
I love the smattering of glittering stones placed at the base of the nail for Sabrina's manicures.
Olivia Dean shows how to pair two trending looks in one mani, with her leopard print French tip and bedazzled silver stones.
If you have short nails, look for smaller gemstones that allow you to create designs such as this floral nail art without taking up too much space.
If you want to dip a toe into the bedazzled trend without going OTT, then layering a couple of rhinestones over a sheer milky base is a great way to tap into the trend.
This stunning manicure is a work of art in itself, with carefully placed pearls and gems.
