Nail trends this fall are bringing familiar seasonal colors and motifs together with fresh details that make fall nails feel new. Berry shades, comforting browns, and warm metallic effects make their way into this fall’s trending nail looks, while playful designs add personality to classic fall nails. From seasonal favorite animal prints to 3D accents, we highlight five trendy fall nail looks that offer fun inspiration for your next manicure.
Animal Prints
Animal prints are a frequently seen fall design element, thanks to their warm tones, organic patterns, and association with fall fashion for cooler temperatures. While cheetah and zebra prints remain popular choices, deer nails, also known as Bambi nails or fawn nails, have been on the rise on social media this season. Their delicate soft brown shades and white dot patterns offer a fresh alternative to commonly used animal prints.
Whether you choose a solid color, syrup color, or magnet gel as your base for animal print designs, a seasonal collection of staple relevant colors can help you execute set after set through the season. For a subtle look, try soft syrup gel options as a base. For something more eye-catching, use a magnet gel base to add depth and subtle shimmer.
The Murmure Haze Beaute Collection offers buildable off-white and brown shades that can be used as a base for various fall nail designs including animal print. These colors also pair well with each other or other warm tone nail details. Use them individually for an understated fall manicure.
For a more dimensional effect, the Miro - Warm Brown Magnet Collection is a staple collection of brown magnet gels that can be used to create elevated animal prints and other fall nail designs with a subtle shimmer.

Fall Themed Cat Eye Nails
Pumpkins, falling leaves, and warm fall colors return every year, but a cat eye/magnet gel can give these familiar fall motifs a fresh look. The shifting light and reflective depth of magnet gel adds movement to seasonal nail art, even when the design itself may be simple.

3D Animal Hipper Nails
Inspired by the playful, cherub-like Sony Angel Hippers collectible figures, 3D animal hipper nails bring a sculptural twist to fall nails. 3D animals that look like they are hanging over the nail are a fun choice for anyone who prefers a little whimsy over traditional fall motifs.
While white sculpting gel can be used to create these 3D characters, sculpting gels in the base color of the animal character, such as brown or black, are useful for sculpting and minimizes handpainting for a more efficient process.
