This is a manicure for all the minimalistic out there. It's a beautiful blend of neutrality and modernity, which only takes a couple of nude nail polishes and a bit of patience.
To recreate it, simply take a thin nail art brush and carefully paint a few squiggles on the edge of your nails. This look was made with nude beige and deep brown, though you can mix and match the colors as you please.
We recommend using a liner brush like our #102 brush to recreate this look. This liner brush works well with gel polish, nail polish, and acrylic paints and is made with quality materials that will easily make your at-home manicure sessions much more enjoyable!

What nail color is most classy?
If you want a classy and timeless look, go with nude or natural colors. Creamy whites, natural nudes, or pastel pinks are all excellent colors that go well with any outfit or occasion.
Should nails and toes match?
It's up to you! In the autumn, it's not likely your toes will be on full display. So, feel free to not match your pedicure to your manicure. That way, you can experiment with two designs at once. Matching pedicures and manicures is usually more important during the summer.
Should your nails match your clothes?
That depends on your outfit! If you'll be wearing a standout outfit, it's a good idea to wear a nail polish shade that complements your clothing. On the other hand, you can wear bright or bold nail lacquer if your outfit will be more low-key or laid-back.
What nail shape is most flattering for older hands?
Round, oval, or almond nail shapes are best for elongating your hands. These nail stapes go well with any look or occasion and can create a more youthful appearance. If you have shorter nails, almond shapes will make your fingers appear slimmer and longer.
