Dark tones on fingernails are particularly popular and trendy in the coming autumn and winter seasons. There is once again a variety of ideas, gloss-matt combinations and colors to choose from - from black, dark red, red, blue, green to natural and gentle nude shades. If you want to make the shiny nail polish matte, you can just stop by here.
The top coat is the easiest way to quickly achieve a trendy matt effect. You can buy a top coat in any drugstore and there are different brands, prices and applications: for example, some bottles can be used equally well as a base or top coat.
About theordinary nail polishYou can use home remedies to turn nail polish into a matte finish. For the first variant you need baking powder, a small plate and a brush. First, sift baking powder or flour, then paint your nails and dip the brush into the baking powder. Finally, coat your nails, leave baking soda on your fingertips for a few seconds and remove the rest with a clean brush. Do not use top coat on it.
With the gray nails trend, the color is usually reminiscent of cold, rainy autumn and winter days. This is a great matte look, especially if you keep your nails short and oval shaped. The second option is with eyeshadow. Scrape gray eyeshadows, mix with cornstarch into a container and stir until the color becomes uniform. Ultimately, you have to apply the mixture and wait for it to dry out.
Red nail polish never really goes out of style. This color is classic and there are different variations - whether light or dark, pale or bright, shiny or matt, you decide for yourself. This color should not be underestimated. If you like your red nails matte, you can also try a third option - add cornstarch or baby powder to the nail polish bottle.
Be inspired by stiletto nails, as your fingers will look longer, elegant and modern. This shape suits women who have short fingers and wide nails very well. But be careful because the stiletto is more suitable as a weekend party look and the manicures are not really comfortable to wear to the office.
According to nail experts, the ballerina shape is very relevant if you want to try something different. The tip of the fingernails is filed straight into a typical ballerina shoe shape compared to stiletto. If you have short nails, you have to use artificial fingernails. Otherwise, you can paint your natural nails nude and give them a matte finish.
Gradient nails are an absolute trend. You can try to achieve this ombre effect yourself at home. The two polishes are first applied horizontally next to each other on a sponge (black and red are preferred for a Halloween look) and then dabbed onto the fingernails. You have to repeat this step several times until the ombre effect is enhanced. Clean the residue around the nails with a nail polish remover and apply top coat for an even finish.

Glitter nail designs are particularly trendy at Christmas and New Year's Eve. Use a thematically appropriate shade for your festive preparation, such as fir green. Depending on your taste, you can decorate your nails with different Christmas motifs (snowman, snowflakes, etc.) or prefer a subtle manicure.
Crescent manicures are worn by celebrities all over the runway. Matted and metallic retro looks are making a comeback and can be easily combined with each other. For example, you can apply a metallic pink nail polish as the base color and then a black nail polish with a matte effect, as shown in the picture above. The look is more like a reverse French manicure.
The fingernails with a leopard pattern look wild and exciting at the same time. Various designs and colors can be found everywhere in magazines or blogs and you will never be bored with such a look. We also recommend adding an accent to the ring fingernail by painting it with a bright color such as pink.
Shiny and matt effects could be created in an interesting way in the winter season with black nail polish. After applying the black nail polish, the fingertip should be coated with a mattifying top coat. Then you draw two strokes with the brush and the look is finished.
Several motifs and nail art techniques are available in autumn and winter when you want to paint nails black and create a modern and chic look. You can, among other things, use a dotting tool or make your own dotting stuff, for example with matches or hairpins.

In addition to blue and black, you can matte and apply several dark colors on your nails such as green nail polish. Glitter is a real eye-catcher and ensures a glamorous look at the party. With the help of a small brush you can spread glitter particles at the bottom of the nail or in a thin triangle in the middle.
If you have decided on a delicate nail design, take a look at this creative idea. The nails were painted light pink and rhinestones in different sizes were placed on the middle and ring fingernails. This nail art decoration is very similar to a sparkling necklace and will lift your festive mood.
A cool winter trend for 2016 is royal blue nail polishes. Small rhinestones, which have been shaped into a triangle, ideally fit on the two ring fingers. Different colors, sizes and patterns are available.
