As much as I love scrolling and saving endless nail art ideas on Instagram and Tik Tok, I’ll admit that when it comes to my own manicure, I’m a one block colour kinda gal. So when I was tasked with putting my investigative beauty journalism hat on to find the nail colours that will be everywhere in 2023, it was a thumbs up from me—both featuring a fresh coat of Chanel Rouge Noir polish, naturally.
My first port of call was hitting up pro nail artist Alyx Lippiatt, whose aesthetically clean-and-cool-girl manis have graced the likes of Lauren Silverman and Jamilla Wyatt. “The metallics we are currently seeing everywhere in fashion will carry on through to next year in the form of solid chrome nails rather than the more subtle glazed look,” Lippiatt explains. “I also think cool shades of each colour will trend instead of the warmer tones. Think cooler tones of grey, blue and lilac.”
