One of the most subtle ways of creating nail art is by painting the tips of your nails different colours from the ordinary white. You can choose a different colour for each nail or go for a uniform look. For an autumn fitting style, try nude tones.

GLITTER SWIRLS

With a nude base, you can make any nail art style pop. A rich and timeless colour, dark green works well with other colours such as burnt orange, mustard and even army green. Instead of painting your nails solid green, opt for swirls infused with glitter.

AUTUMN LEAVES

What better nail art to have than autumn leaves? A blend of nude and burnt orange, this art may have to be done by a skilled nail technician or you can use stick-on art. Whatever you decide, all eyes will be on you and your pretty nails. The great thing about this style is that it works on both short and long nails.
