Quiet luxury beauty trends gain momentum through celebrity manicures
A growing beauty trend toward 'quiet luxury' and natural aesthetics is being highlighted by high-profile figures. Model Zaira Nara has embraced a minimalist approach, opting for translucent nude tones with a high-shine finish and an almond shape to achieve a sophisticated, effortless look.
Similarly, singer Céline Dion has popularized 'milky nails' during her performances in Paris. This style, which sits between a 'no-manicure' look and traditional nail art, utilizes translucent white or pink tones to enhance the natural nail rather than covering it completely. This shift emphasizes nail health, including well-maintained cuticles and smooth surfaces, over intense colors or elaborate designs. Other celebrities, such as Jennifer Lopez and Penélope Cruz, have also been linked to the popularity of these natural, milky finishes.
