With the number of trends that come to light every fortnight, I always wonder if there is any room left for experimentation in beauty. The internet community has exhausted all possibilities, the varying permutations and combinations, right? But every single time, a new trend that surfaces on my feed pops this bubble of misconception I am in and opens my eyes to a whole new, uncharted realm of experimentation that was so beyond my imagination. Come to think of it, isn't this what the meaning of beauty should encapsulate? The ability to always push the limits of what is realisable, the ability to reimagine and reinvent.
It’s 2022 and the beauty community is limitless, more inclusive and flooding with the coolest trends to try. Engagement of varying individuals that bring forth their ideas and creativity always sprouts some stunning trends. One trend in particular that I recently learnt was Nail Landscaping, and it's such honestly a revelation! Desert moon, a stretch of deep blue sea or ice-capped mountains, the trend of nail landscaping brings all of it to you at the comfort of your home. As the name suggests, this nail trend is basically a manicure to mirror the master strokes of colour, the artistry that helps you recreate a landscape that you fancy. Palm trees on the beach during sunset, a splash of orange, a tinge of yellow and a stroke of pink is what I personally want my nails to look like (tell me yours in our comments section).
That said, I’ve shared a bunch of fun variations and designs that you can bookmark for inspiration.
1. SPACED OUT
Is there anything more alluring than outer space? With dark hues of blue and black, bring the cosmos alive on your nails. So whether it be a dinner date or a pool party, watch people around be enamoured with your whimsical take on space.
2. SUNSET BOULEVARD
If you are someone who is always chasing sunsets, this nail art inspiration is for you. Use shades of green to sketch pines, bring in more drama with the blacks, the greys for the icy mountains and paint the sky with shades of fuchsia, tangerine and amber.
3. MIDNIGHT BLUES
Love the sheet of stars that adorn the night sky? Paint the stars on your nails with a shade of silver or a luminous white. You can also try and bring out the mystique of aurora by a splash of fluorescent green across the canvas (your nails).
4. Water Baby
Bring the beach to you this summer, with this beach inspired nail art. Endless stretch of shaded blue, fluffy white clouds and a stroke for the white sand is your cure for summertime blues.
