French manicure for January 2025: the newest design ideas with photos

A new year brings fresh possibilities and inspiration, opening up great prospects for experimentation. It's the perfect time for updates, such as adding a new twist to the classic French manicure. This trend continues to evolve and can be easily adapted to suit all preferences, from traditional, familiar options to bolder and more out-of-the-box solutions. If you usually opt for traditional styles, now is a great time to step outside your comfort zone and try something new. And if your style has always been bold and colourful, you might want to bring a little classiness to your manicure. The New Year is a time for change, so why not start by experimenting with nail design? Here are 8 stylish French manicure ideas that are perfect for January!  

01 Blue tips

Create an atmosphere of calm with a pastel blue manicure. Alternating different patterns is a playful way to add originality if you want to avoid classic French tips.

02 Red and nude

A nude accent nail is the perfect complement to a sparkling red manicure. To add sophistication and festive flair, embellish your French manicure with silver or gold glitter.

03 Power in Black

The French manicure has no strict rules, as evidenced by the amazing combinations of single and double tips. While classic white remains a favourite, using a black or darker shade adds a fashionable accent while maintaining an elegant neutrality.

04 Burgundy and gold foil

Gold foil adds even more festive glitter to the burgundy french, making the manicure especially bright and stylish. A special charm of the design is given by the perfectly round shape, which adds sophistication and elegance to the whole look.

05 Shades of green

Why limit yourself to one shade of green when you can use two? In this French design, the artist combined several shades of green to create a smooth gradient effect. We particularly love this design for its versatility and ease of creation, allowing you to adapt it to any style and mood.

06 Ice Blue

Try replacing white with ice blue to add a sophisticated touch. Textured gel swirls will be a creative accent to add dimension and depth to a classic design.

07 Flirty French

Keep yourself cosy and flirty in the cold weather with a manicure that combines playfulness and elegance.

08 Red French

Like red lips, red nails always remain a symbol of sexiness and confidence.
