Winter Aura Manicure Looks

Midnight

Navy may be a staple color for fall, but come winter, deep midnight colors reign supreme. Icy and delightfully dark, the shade is perfect for creating an alluring aura design.

Cherry Mocha

Yes, the cherry mocha train is still going strong. If you’re looking for a chic way to lean into the trend, a shiny aura manicure is the perfect choice. To get the full effect, be sure to choose a muted cherry shade with chocolate undertones.

Mixed Manicure

Nail art knows no rules. While single-design looks are nice, a mixed set featuring various designs is a fun way to shake things up. These nails blend onyx aura nails with crisp white crocodile print for a design that’s anything but boring.

Garnet

It’s no secret that alluring shades of purple are trending for winter. For a more moody manicure, try creating your aura nails with a deep garnet-colored polish and a touch of sparkle to enhance the effect.

Color Block Design

We’re used to seeing nails fully covered with the aura effect. However, this set showcases a completely different side of the design. The single strip of fuchsia creates a cool blocked print that’s fresh and bold.

Latte Aura Nails

Latte nails are far from new, but when blended with the aura trend, they take on a whole new vibe. To up the ante of the final look, paint a slim, glittery outline around the nail to showcase the “aura” of it all.
