@paintedbyjools"The black cherry nail trend gained viral prominence in 2023, supported in part by Megan Fox’s devotion to the shade," explains Diogo. "As we step into the winter months of 2024 this shade is a fitting choice. Think black with a hint of red or a purple glaze; deep aubergines or blood reds."

@themaniclubThis colour is such a chic alternative to your usual black and burgundy shades and is perfect for January.

@harrietwestmorelandIf you want to go for this shade, Diogo says
Pinotage and Knight’s Armour from Bio Sculpture are the most in-demand colours from clients right now.

How beautiful is this Beauty Pie shade?
For a shiny, gel-like finish, opt for this polish from Barry M.

@harrietwestmorelandNext up is classic red. "Barbie pink was big for 2023 but we’re predicting a shift towards red in 2024, with minimalist, feminine designs," shares Diogo. "This takes the balletcore trend with the skinny French manicure up a notch."

@themaniclubYou can also opt for a block red shade for a serious statement.

@iramsheltonAs Diogo said, "feminine" red nail-art designs will be big next year, and I love these cute little hearts.
Chanel has created the most stunning classic red colour.
For those of you looking to do red nail art, this pen from Nails. Inc will make doing your designs much easier.

@iramsheltonChrome nails have been in style for a while now, and apparently the trend isn't going anywhere for 2024. "On recent catwalks, chrome appeared in a big way over natural bases or soft pinks, whites and vanillas," explains Diogo.

@nailartbyqueenieNot only that, but according to Diogo, we’ve seen the hashtag #chromenails gain 1.6 billion views on TikTok.

@paintedbyjoolsThis trend is great for those who prefer something a bit more subtle compared to the colours above.
Diogo says that this colour from Bio Sculpture makes a beautiful base for a chrome topcoat.
I love this soft, chrome-like polish from Nails. Inc.

@paintedbyjoolsIs it just me, or is everyone suddenly swapping their coffee for matcha? Not only is this wellness trend continuing to grow, but it's also starting to make its way into the beauty world, and I have no doubt that matcha-coloured nails will be everywhere next year. I mean, the hashtag #matchanails already has nearly a million views on TikTok.

@harrietwestmorelandWhether you want a block colour or matcha French tips, there are so many options available. According to Diogo, this matcha nail colour also works really well under a chrome topcoat, and I'll definitely be giving it a go.
Bio Sculpture recently teamed up with Cloudcha, the matcha brand founded by Rochelle Humes and Bryony Deery, to create the perfect matcha nail polish.

Beauty Pie has a great alternative.

@nailartbyqueenieI'm a big fan of this trend, and I'm sure any minimalists will agree that it looks super chic.

@betina_goldsteinBy opting for more of a natural, nude base, you can have lots of fun with your nail-art designs.
For simple nail designs, use a dotting tool like this one from Manucurist.
Make sure to keep your nail art in place with a clear topcoat.
