Close your eyes and think about it: dry, crunchy leaves strewn all over the sidewalks; plush, cozy sweaters; fuzzy socks we wear to shuffle around the house; the knobby gourds and stringy fake cobwebs we use to decorate our front porches. This fall\u2019s biggest nail trends seem to capture this abundance of texture, says Marnae Orton, nail artist and educator at The Nailsaloon in Washington, DC. \u201cVelvet nails, 3D embellishments, and abstract designs using chrome will have their moment as a fashion accessory,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>Rita Pinto, founder of Vanity Project salons, has a similar prediction across her client base in New York City and Miami: \u201cWe\u2019ll continue to see a trend toward a more textured, 3D chrome look with jewel tones and cat-eye gel this fall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And speaking of cat-eye nails, magnetic polish will remain a favorite among nail art lovers, says San Diego-based nail artist Alora Reyes. \u201cIt\u2019s a design we incorporate into \u2018crazier&#8217; sets as a pop of something interesting,\u201d she explains, \u201cbut I also have clients that are obsessed with it as one color.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But telling you cat-eye nails are \u201cin\u201d is no news flash, especially if you&#8217;re someone with a standing salon appointment. What <em>is<\/em> fresh for fall, though, is taking some of the year\u2019s biggest trends and giving them a sumptuous, autumnal twist. Nail artists are using chrome finishes and builder gel to create bespoke, mixed-metal manicures that flout old-school fashion rules and echo what\u2019s happening in the jewelry space. They\u2019re breaking out the biggest, flashiest crystals for dazzling designs that border on the baroque. They\u2019re using animal prints on the tips of nails and dreaming up aura designs in rich fall shades like mauve, plum, and apricot.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s not all bold bling and flashing metallics. On the other side of the nail art spectrum are a growing number of trends that rely on subtle, neutral tones while still managing to capture that textural element we\u2019re loving this fall. Expect to see tiny, flat-back studs on nude nails, nail art designs done entirely in luxe neutral tones, and sheer textile prints layered over a pale nail that look as delicate and diaphanous as expensive lingerie. When it comes to nail art, there\u2019s so much beauty to choose from; you just have to know where to look.<\/p>\n<div class=\"AccordionWrapper-hsYVHT elEIEo\">\n<div class=\"AccordionItemWrapper-eWlGuu eNwKZf\">\n<div class=\"AccordionContainer-foSklP jztevT\">\n<div data-testid=\"accordion-item-container\" class=\"AccordionItemContainer-ywYcO eQgPvY\">\n<div class=\"AccordionItemContainerLabel-ioTxOM cxubGT\">\n<p><strong>Meet the experts:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"AccordionItemContainerContent-bPelIb dZnEWF opening-animation\">\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li>Rita Pinto is the founder of Vanity Project nail art salons in New York City and Miami.<\/li>\n<li>Alora Reyes is a nail artist based in San Diego.<\/li>\n<li>Hang Nguyen is a Los Angeles-based nail artist.<\/li>\n<li>Marnae Orton is a nail artist and educator at The Nailsaloon in Washington, DC.<\/li>\n<li>Bana Jarjour is a Los Angeles-based nail artist.<\/li>\n<li>Julie Kandalec is a New York City-based nail artist and Kiss brand ambassador.<\/li>\n<li>Maki Sakamoto is a New York City-based nail artist.<\/li>\n<li>Miss Pop is a New York City-based nail artist.<\/li>\n<li>Julie Kandalec is a New York City-based nail artist and Kiss brand ambassador.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>Mixed metals<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This fall, nail artists are tossing out the old-school fashion rule that says you shouldn\u2019t wear silver and gold at the same time. \u201cMixed-metal nail art has been my latest obsession,\u201d says nail artist Hang Nguyen. \u201cI used to think they\u2019d clash, but turns out they look amazing together. I mean, why choose one when you can have both?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"GridWrapper-cFSKbf cxzKYj grid grid-margins grid-items-2 ArticlePageChunksGrid-hkPQhP lnoYVP grid-layout--adrail narrow wide-adrail\" data-journey-hook=\"grid-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"GridItem-beYvyV kCPYUp grid--item grid-layout__content\">\n<div class=\"BodyWrapper-kzyFNv HDJd body body__container article__body\" data-journey-hook=\"client-content\" data-testid=\"BodyWrapper\">\n<div class=\"body__inner-container\">\n<p>Nguyen finishes her mixed-metal designs with a no-wipe topcoat (her favorite is the Kupa Gelfinity Gel Top), which eliminates the step of having to remove the sticky layer that\u2019s typical with traditional gel finishes. This makes a no-wipe gel topcoat an ideal option when using builder gels and gems\u2014both often used in mixed-metal designs\u2014as it keeps you from disturbing those 3D elements underneath.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no right or wrong way to try the mixed-metal trend. \u201cYou can keep it minimal or add more 3D designs for a more dramatic look,\u201d says nail artist Bana Jarjour. Both Nguyen and Jarjour use builder gel and chrome powders to create unique and maximalist mixed-metal manicures. Nguyen considers OPI to have some of the best chrome powders for this type of manicure, while Jarjour gives a shout-out to The Gel Bottle Mirror Chrome Studio Gel.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-fkZDUs kHRAYC asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eEeytc eRSvCP asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-zEXFr koTknX responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cIfZLr fHIkTW asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A hand with a palm faced up and fingers curling up to show blue and gold metallic nails with gem and metalswirled details.\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eNxvmU cfBbTk responsive-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/metal-nail-art-thehangedit.jpg\" title=\"metal-nail-art-thehangedit\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"CaptionWrapper-jYrTxZ gVBkjw caption AssetEmbedCaption-fyuOdR gAYTTS asset-embed__caption\" data-testid=\"caption-wrapper\"><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gzmcOU BaseText-eqOrNE CaptionCredit-eowWKH deqABF lnzeTN gxwcqg caption__credit\">Courtesy of @thehangedit<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"GridWrapper-cFSKbf cxzKYj grid grid-margins grid-items-2 ArticlePageChunksGrid-hkPQhP lnoYVP grid-layout--adrail narrow wide-adrail\" data-journey-hook=\"grid-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"GridItem-beYvyV kCPYUp grid--item grid-layout__content\">\n<div class=\"BodyWrapper-kzyFNv HDJd body body__container article__body\" data-journey-hook=\"client-content\" data-testid=\"BodyWrapper\">\n<div class=\"body__inner-container\">\n<p>You can stop at using builder gel and chrome powder or you can go even more maximalist by adding appliqu\u00e9s or colored crystals, says Nguyen, who did just that for the look above. \u201cThis look feels perfect for fall,\u201d she says. \u201cIt gives off a witchy, celestial vibe with the mix of gold and silver, and the deep blue gems feel almost like little galaxies on my nails.
