People Are 100% More Likely to Think You Look Demure and Polished If You Have a “Vanilla French” Manicure

Is there anything more elegant than a French tip manicure? This nail trend is so popular right now, and there’s no denying how polished it looks. That being said, as someone who loves a more muted manicure, I’ve been keen to find a softer alternative to a bright white French tip. Luckily for me, “vanilla French” nails are a thing, and they are even chicer than they sound…

What Is a Vanilla French Manicure?

Originally coined by celebrity nail artist, Zola Ganzorigt, a vanilla French mani is essentially a softer, creamier take on your typical French tip. Instead of opting for a classic white nail polish, this trend involves using more subtle, milky hues to give a gorgeous “vanilla” effect. It often features a slightly sheer finish too, which makes it look even more sophisticated in my opinion.

Although this trend originally came about in early 2023, according to Google Trends, searches are on the rise, and I can totally see why. This cosy, creamy hue is perfect for transitioning into the autumn months, so I have no doubt that it will be popular as we move into September and beyond.
