There’s no denying that abstract nails are on the rise on Instagram.
The point is, abstract nails make for some of the most uniqueanduniversally attainable manicure ideas.
@imarninails
And, as a result, Instagram is teeming with posts dedicated to the trend.
So, what are you waiting for?
Just consider this a moodier take on the eye-catching design.

The Female Form
Pale pink and peach hues give this abstract design a feminine feel.
And it’s fitting given the abstract shapes present are actually faces and female forms.

Abstract nail art can be paired with other trends.
@glosshouse
Here, you might see how mix-and-match designs look with the recent Skittles mani trend.
Terracotta Abstract
Prefer earthier vibes?
This manicurewhich features cream, terracotta, and olive green hueswill fit your fancy.
@amyytran
While the lines are fairly easy to recreate, the squiggles may take a bit more time to master.
Charcoal Abstract
Here we have another easy-to-recreate abstract mani idea.
Start with charcoal polish and then swatch cream and green hues overtop.
@nailsbycanishiea
Don’t forget topcoat to achieve that shine.
Feminine Lines
The female form is a popular subject when it comes to abstract nail art ideas.
Start by painting your nails with sheer polish in the color(s) of your choice.
@nailsbycanishiea
Then, go in with a toothpick or ultra-thin lining brush dipped in black polish.
Though, given the precise lines, you may want to enlist the help of a pro nail artist.
Gatsby Gold
This is what we call a black tie-friendly abstract manicure.
@nailsbycanishiea
With hints of gold, black, and white, it gives us major Gatsby vibes.
Evil Eye Abstract Press-Ons
Evil eyes?
A neutral nude base?
@imarninails
There’s so much to love about this boho nail design.
Hot Pink Swirls
Pretty in pink (and purple), no?
Dalmatian Dots
Thin lines and dainty dots?
@oliveandjune
A toothpick will come in handy here.
Gold Foil
Sometimes you don’t even need colored nail polish to create an abstract nail look.
We love this funky design.
