Short nails are definitely back, and not just a little! They combine practicality and elegance, while remaining super trendy. Whether for a natural look or a worked manicure, short nails lend themselves to all desires. In this article, Maryton supply will show you how to enhance them easily and with style!
Here are some manicure ideas that enhance short nails while remaining modern and elegant:
Nude and natural manicure
Nude is perfect for giving the illusion of longer nails while remaining discreet. By choosing a shade close to your skin tone, you bring finesse to your hands and an “effortlessly neat nails” effect.
French manicure revisited
On short nails, the French manicure works wonderfully! Opt for a minimalist version with a thin white line or dare to use brighter colors like pastel or gold for an original and modern effect.
Dark varnishes
Contrary to what you might think, dark shades like black, burgundy or navy blue are very flattering on short nails. They bring a chic and sophisticated side, perfect for an elegant look.

Geometric or minimalist patterns
On short nails, small geometric patterns are great. Triangles, thin lines or even strategically placed dots will give a graphic effect while visually lengthening the nails.
Mirror or metallic effect
Metallic polishes like silver, gold or bronze capture the light and create a sparkling effect on short nails. This adds a touch of modernity and glamour to your manicure.
Discreet accent nail
For a subtle but sophisticated look, focus on the accent nail by decorating only one or two nails with glitter, a pattern or a contrasting color.
Minimalist nail art
Small details like a thin gold line or a tiny heart at the base of the nail allow you to stylize your short nails without overdoing it. Simple, elegant and always on trend.
