Red is one of the most popular classic colors that has consistently remained in fashion over the years. And it’s no secret that red in a manicure will lead among other colors. In this nail art, the main thing is not the design itself, but the shade of the red coating. The palette of red tones is very diverse, and you can choose the right option for yourself. An important advantage of this color is that it can be combined with any other shade, and is also suitable for any type of event. But still, the fashion industry dictates its own rules every year. Let's look at which red manicure will be fashionable in 2020.
Red French manicure
A fashionable French manicure with a red base is popular among all fashionistas. The scarlet shade in itself is aggressive, but when combined with a classic French jacket, it loses almost all its audacity, but retains a touch of your explosive character. A neat hole at the tip of the nail will give the red color peace and restraint. A black jacket with a red base will allow you to combine your manicure with a business suit, and a silver one will be more suitable for the gray tones of your clothes. As a border, this color of love and passion will also look very charming. In this case, the basis can be classic black or white. Their combination will be winning in any case.
To create a romantic manicure, choose a delicate pale pink base under the red tip of the nail, and for a popular jacket in a minimalist style, use a clear varnish or coating to match your skin.

A fashionable red jacket 2021 is very easy to make. For this we need sticky paper tape or tape. You need to cover the nail plate with tape, leaving the tip of the nail open. We paint the tip with red varnish and remove the tape. If you want to get a rounded jacket, then a piece of tape must first be rounded with scissors. The red and white jacket looks interesting. To create it, you first need to cover your nails with red polish, wait for it to dry, and then also cover your nails with a stencil, and paint the tip of the nail white.

Minimalist nail design is very popular today. It is visually pleasant, discreet and does not become boring at all when worn for a long time. The red color in a minimalist design looks more elegant than its full implementation. The red arched stripes look especially subtle and cute, completely repeating the oval of the nail on top of the nude base. A lunar manicure with burgundy or scarlet varnish, where thin black or beige stripes form a geometric shape, looks no less impressive. On a light red base, the geometric version looks beautiful and extravagant. But the most minimal design is a medium-sized red dot in the center of the nail on a transparent base.

Bright rhinestones on your nails will create an incredible sparkle effect, as if precious stones are covering your red nails. The ruby tint looks especially chic in the bright spotlights. Rhinestones go perfectly with all shades of color, from red-orange to burgundy.

For example, three fingers can be painted with glossy varnish, and two with matte, or vice versa.
