Early and mid '2000s black nail polish on short nails was all the rage. As time passed it started shifting to deep maroon, dark purples and blues and slowly we started to see pitch black nail polish less and less, except as a nail art tool. This year we're starting to see more of it and I guess the hunt for the perfect black nail polish with resume once more.
If you're over the basics, you might want to try something a little different this year, try a manicure with black nail art designs. This strong shade is an endless creative spectrum and you can experiment on the days you need a pick me up or a manicure that has you "I can't stop staring at my nails!" all day. I picked out some diverse black nail designs, but my preferences will always be the sleek, minimal and delicate ones. Are you with me?

About the Author
Farida Abdel Malek
The first time she watched "The Devil Wears Prada" around the age of 12, Farida felt something that she couldn’t quite explain at that time. She was inspired. The clothes, the hair, the makeup and of course, Paris. It made her feel ecstatic; wanting to jump years ahead to enter the industry in a way or another. She is a makeup fanatic and spends 80% of her time looking at new products, and putting them on her wishlist. She studied multimedia journalism, and wanted to further utilize it by writing about her passion. Farida loves to take time for herself and unwinds by watching "Friends" and doing her skincare routine before bedtime.
