In 2025, the French manicure is still one of the most requested looks in salons. Clean architecture, sharp smile lines and a well-prepped nail plate make these designs ideal both for everyday clients and for social media content. Below are three French manicure ideas created in Russian manicure technique that reflect current trends without losing their wearability.
1. Classic Nude Pink French
The base here is a soft nude pink that highlights the nail architecture and gives a neat, healthy look to the hands. A crisp white French tip visually elongates the nail and keeps the whole design clean and elegant.
