"Almost Clear Base: The Importance of Sparkle! A Special Feature on Beautiful Nail Art"
2022.05.20 published
I love simple nails that are light in color and have a sparkle.
Hello, I am Haruno Tsuzaki from marry.
I absolutely love nails!
When my nails have a design I adore, I feel a sense of happiness in little moments, as if my life gets a boost of vibrancy ♡
(On the contrary, when I don’t like them, I think “not good...” every single second I see them 😹)
My favorite designs are simple but not too simple, elegant nails.
Due to my job, I often take photos of dresses and accessories, so I tend to prefer designs that aren’t flashy but look neat and beautiful.... Typically, I use a base that’s close to my skin tone as a concealer and apply either a glitter gradient or French tips... but there are still quite a variety of designs ♡
(Recently during a shoot, I was so happy to find that I had a similar nail design to a designer from KIYOKO HATA team, whose age is close to mine. It's like we were matching, and we were thrilled together, saying "This kind of style is the best, right?")
Here are some saved designs! ♡
I’m sure many of you reading marry would also love these designs.
In this article, I will introduce “nail designs I want to try next” that I saved on Instagram ♩
I hope this serves as a reference for those who love simple and glamorous designs or are looking for bridal nail design inspiration! ♡
【1】
White French tips with glitter, and V-cut stones ♡
I like the square shape of the nails.

Here’s a well-defined white French with a deeper curve.
The round pearls are adorable.
【3】
A beige color similar to orange, with tiny pearls at the tips.
【4】
A straight-edge shape with glitter lines and rhinestones.
【5】
A combination of chain rhinestones and glitter gradients. Makes me want to challenge a white ribbon, too.
【6】
Cut and apply aurora film in a French shape.
【7】
Red skinny French with a combination of rhinestones ♡ Isn't this stylish??
【8】
A milky white base with large colorful stones popping! ♡
【9】
A natural color base with glitter and aurora stones at the tips. It's like a distorted version of glass French.
【10】
Milky white base with rhinestones. The bullion looks cute, resembling a ring's prong setting.
【11】
A white version of the red French from number 7 ♡
【12】
A champagne gold reflective French that blends well with the skin.
【13】
A classic and elegant deeper curve white French (with a pink base) adorned with stones ♡
【14】
A pretty nail with a muted grayish-beige color and clear stone parts.
The big stones are transparent because the silver sheet at the back of the parts is removed. I want to mimic this.
【15】
A glitter French with mixed colors that sparkle.
【16】
French with line tape*
【17】
Glitter gradient.
(Glitter gradients have been a classic for a long time, but my nail artist told me, "Lately, glitter gradient nail art has been popular!" It might be a subtle trend of the times....)
【18】
French with pearls and rhinestones.
【19】
White gradient and glitter gradient with a large ribbon part ♡
【20】
A glossy and moist pink color with an aurora ribbon ♡
【21】
A soft French in cream color with a gentle pink hue ♡
It feels great to lift my spirits and have beautiful hands...!
Just like how the nails of nail models are simple as a rule, simple nails with a beige or light pink base are essential to make the hands look beautiful.
However, when I feel like having a slightly more glamorous design than the nails of hand models, I introduced some nail art that I would recommend.
Having a moist, shiny, or sparkling look really elevates my mood, and it is perfect for bridal nails as well.
(It complements other designs without overshadowing them!)
I hope this helps those who want simple yet sparkling nail art ♡
