Why blackberry noir nails are trending

The shade delivers the sophistication of black with a warmer purple depth. It bridges late summer and autumn and complements the berry tones returning to UK fashion and beauty.

What to ask for at the salon

“Ask for a blue-based, near-black plum in a high-shine finish. Check the first coat in daylight so the blackberry undertone remains visible.”

Shape, finish and wear notes

A short, immaculate shape makes the colour feel chic and practical. Add one fine gold line if you want detail without losing the dark impact.
