Multi-colored manicure has become popular largely due to its versatility. It is easy to choose clothes and accessories for it, it fits even into the strictest dress code.
A multi-colored manicure does not necessarily mean a bright and catchy design in rainbow colors. It can look elegant and feminine if you use calm, muted tones. The big advantage of multi-colored manicure is that you can do it yourself.
Features of multi-colored manicure with gel polish
Multi-colored manicure is very diverse in terms of color palette. These can be bright sunny shades, used mainly for summer design, or harmonious calm tones: gray, blue, green, which will be appropriate in a business style. Whatever type of multi-colored manicure you choose, it is worth remembering several features of this design:
- in one multi-colored manicure you can combine no more than 4 shades. In this case, you can use any colors: pastel, neon, rich, contrasting.
- multi-colored manicure is performed in two main ways: painting each nail in a separate color or a combination of several shades on one nail plate
- A multi-colored manicure practically does not require additional decor, but rhinestones, sequins, and sparkles will not be superfluous
Multi-colored manicure for the summer season 2022
In summer, patterns of bright, contrasting colors are added to the listed colors. Rubbing and neon coating add special chic to the seasonal coating. This manicure is no longer just bright, it is a flashy color that attracts maximum attention.
Not every girl can wear a bright manicure every day; it requires a certain moral preparation. Usually it is used on vacation during the holidays.

When choosing a neon coating, keep in mind that some varnishes glow in the dark. The main thing is that this does not come as a surprise. After all, the moderate brightness of the varnish in daylight can shock others in the dark.
You can add brightness to your every day manicure with colored life hacks applied on a light base.
Tips with a neon finish are suitable for everyday nail coloring with neutral powdery shades of varnish.
To the listed colors of the spring season you should add orange, coral, red, crimson, purple, and other bright summer shades.
They will give the owner of a colored manicure self-confidence and ensure a good mood for every day.

Stylish multi-colored manicure in pastel colors
The pastel color palette is the “favorite” of most fashionistas. The variety of shades allows you to create hundreds of original nail art, including multi-colored ones. When making a multi-colored design, you should stick to a moderate color combination. There is no place for bright accents in this manicure; the colors should complement each other.
The main shade of pastel manicure is milky or white. It is this that other tones are matched to: blue, nude shades, pink, olive and others.
Multi-colored manicure for the winter season 2022
With the onset of winter, we begin to hide our hands in warm mittens and gloves. But this is not a reason to stop caring for your nails. Winter manicure is no less beautiful and attractive than any other time of the year.
We combine winter with a matte finish and dark, cool tones. You can diversify the coldness of color with rhinestones, glitter, and other bright accents.
It is fashionable to decorate winter manicure with patterns, drawings of snowflakes, snowmen, deer, tangerines, and cartoon characters.
This is especially true during the winter holidays.
The manicure design may include a Christmas and New Year theme with Christmas trees, toys, tinsel, and an image of Santa. New Year's decor can be decorated with golden velvet sand and relief winter patterns.
Dark blue, black, purple tones form a wonderful tandem with pastel, warm ones.
In winter French manicure, gold and colored stripes predominate, the hole is highlighted in a contrasting color, and a matte finish is combined with a glossy one.
Summer multi-colored manicure in bright colors
Perhaps multi-colored manicure was first created in the summer, when nature itself suggested shades for girls to design their nails. It’s boring to use just one color in a manicure, so the nails were decorated with all the shades that were in the cosmetic bag.
The colors in the design should be selected depending on the combination of shades. If it is a summer design, then use the primary colors of the rainbow. If you just want to create attractive nail art in bright colors, then use 2-4 shades: red, blue, purple, yellow and others.
Classic manicure
A three-color glitter manicure, which has two primary colors - black and white, is considered a classic. A bright accent nail of golden color is covered with rubbing. This is the finest powder that needs to be poured onto the prepared nail, smeared with a base layer of varnish, and carefully rub the powder into the depth of the layer. This can be done either with a wide brush or just with your finger.
The combination of shiny white varnish with matte black looks interesting. Large rhinestones attached in descending order of stone diameter add solemnity. At first glance, this manicure looks simple, but it looks incredibly impressive and festive.
Multi-colored manicure with a gradient
Ombre manicure can be called a classic version of a multi-colored design. Several shades are placed on one nail at once, which are in harmony with each other. The simplest option for an ombre manicure is considered to be a combination of white with any other color. More complex nail art includes up to 4 shades.
It is not recommended to use more than 4 shades at the same time in an ombre manicure, especially on short nails.
Matte multi-colored manicure
Matteness gives the manicure a special charm. The design becomes gentle and feminine. This property of a matte manicure involves the use of calm, moderate shades. First of all, these are pastel shades.
Matte multi-colored manicure is performed by drawing a separate color on each nail or by applying several tones on one nail. The principle of combining shades also applies here. Choose tones that are similar in color palette, for example, several shades of blue, lighter and darker.

Multicolored French manicure
The combination of techniques and textures always looks interesting and stylish. Complement the classic French jacket with multi-colored elements and it will look much more attractive.
Different shades are used to draw a French “smile” or fill the entire space of the nail plate. For a jacket, bright shades with a color transition within one nail or across the entire hand are most often used. If you decide to paint your “smile” with all the colors of the rainbow, then it is better to leave the rest of the nail area unpainted or cover it with white gel polish. There should be only one accent in this design and that is the multi-colored “smile” line.
French manicure - fashionable color options
The popularity of French manicure is incomparable. The classic version of this option is very actively used in all seasons, but sometimes you really want to add a bright touch to a restrained classic look. Newfangled trends today invite us to pay attention to the option of performing French manicure in color. Use different colors to apply French, and your classic will sparkle in a completely new way on your hands! Try incorporating an ombre color technique or a rainbow color combination. Take the risk of highlighting a French stripe with one of the rich neon shades, or give preference to multi-colored nails. Very unusual, beautiful and fashionable. Making a jacket with colored stripes or polka dots, combining what seems to be completely different color schemes, will add that very bright note to the classic version of the famous jacket.
Multi-colored manicure has become very popular due to its versatility. Every fashionista can easily choose accessories and clothes for such nails. If done correctly, such a manicure easily fits into the strictest dress code, or will boldly emphasize your bright mood in any weather. Let's hurry to choose shades!
Multi-colored manicure with acrylic powder
There are enough shades of acrylic to create original nail art in different colors. The principle of creating such a manicure does not differ from the usual technique of applying multi-colored varnishes. Acrylic powder helps in creating an amazing winter manicure. In this case, it is preferable to use themed winter shades: white, blue, pink. Lace patterns on nails with multi-colored powder look interesting. Outwardly, they resemble frosty streaks on the windows.
Acrylic powder can also be used in summer nail art. Use it to accent floral and rainbow decor. Nail art with imitation sand looks interesting; the texture of acrylic allows you to do this.
Manicure with a combination of pastel shades
The pastel palette of varnishes always looks gentle, restrained and elegant, even in cases where bright colors are used in the process of creating a manicure. Therefore, there are no prohibitions for creating a multi-colored manicure in this case. We combine the shades correctly and enjoy the result. You can give preference to a laconic monochromatic manicure with the option of applying shades that differ by half a tone on each nail plate, design a nail design in the “different hands” style, make a gradient with an unusual arrangement of transitions, or design a colored jacket.
No less interesting is a multi-colored manicure in pastel colors with various variations of floral designs or geometric compositions, a design with elements of “negative space,” a lunar manicure with shiny lunulae, or a design with inscriptions. And also, nail art with inlaid rhinestones, foil prints and other ideas that will highlight your individuality and the chosen outfit.
Multi-colored marmalade manicure
Melange, marmalade or sugar for nails is a set of small flat sand crystals that look like small confetti. They can be plain or consist of several colors. Thanks to their special texture, they look great on nails, they shimmer and shine interestingly.
For a multi-colored manicure, choose a melange of several shades accordingly. The principle of working with melange is similar to acrylic powder. It is applied to a sticky layer of gel polish and, if desired, secured with a top coat.
Depending on your look, create a melange design on each nail or accent just the ring finger with sugar. The melange palette is also selected depending on the situation. For summer holidays you can use all the different shades of melange; for office style, limit yourself to deep blue, purple, burgundy.
Multi-colored manicure is a universal solution for any look, style and age. In addition, marigolds of different shades are at the peak of popularity today. With a multi-colored manicure you will always look stylish and attractive.
Ideas for colored manicure with a pattern
You can add another small fashionable note to your already bright and colorful manicure. To implement this idea, select an original and small drawing for one or two fingers with the master. Images in the minimalist style will be very relevant, for example, a neat image of a heart or an abstraction will be placed on a blue surface. A few twigs or flowers on the ring finger will dilute the variety of colors with a touch of tenderness. Manicures using stickers and sliders have become stylish. Among monochromatic designs, newspaper fonts and various inscriptions are in the lead. All that remains is to decide on a sketch in advance and turn your ideas into reality.
