At the end of each year, Pantone chooses the main color for the coming year. This 2024, the tone in question is ‘peach fuzz’, a soft peach. This shade is automatically crowned as the most desired in clothing, decoration and beauty, where it has a place from makeup to hair, including manicures.
The ‘peach fuzz’ manicure will be the leading trend this spring, since it is a light and cheerful color and is perfect for the flower season. You can wear it in many ways, the most basic being to paint all your nails in this color. For a more special touch, on social networks we find options such as a French ‘peach fuzz’ manicure or decorating the nails with drawings such as hearts. There is also no shortage of its fusion with another fashionable manicure, glazed nails. Whether you want to recreate the trendy manicure at home or go to a professional salon, here are four suggestions for inspiration.
The easiest way to show off the color of the year in your manicure is to paint your nails in the most similar shade you can find to ‘peach fuzz’. It is a discreet way to apply the trend, whether with longer or shorter nails, square, round or almond-shaped.
In this proposal, two manicure trends are combined: the ‘peach fuzz’ color and glazed nails, which consist of a shiny glazed finish on the nails. To do this, first paint your nails with one or two coats of ‘peach fuzz’ color. Next, add a layer of glitter or iridescent powder for that final frosted touch.
If you want to opt for a more original option, TikTok user @heygreatnails is encouraged to turn her nails into a sample from the Pantone guide. To do this, she paints only half of her nail with the color ‘peach fuzz’ and the other half in white. Using a very fine brush or a special nail sticker, she writes the word Pantone on the white fragment.
Regarding the rest of the nails, you can paint two of the entire nails with ‘peach fuzz’ and another two, reserving this tone for the tip like a French manicure. Or recreate the Pantone swatch on your entire hand.
Finally, the flirty aesthetic is also present in this manicure. It consists of combining some nails with a French manicure by painting the tip with ‘peach fuzz’, other entire nails with that color, and one more where small hearts are drawn in the tone of the season.
