Nail Shape Trends for 2025

Trending in 2025, this shape combines practicality with style. The softened edges make it perfect for everyday wear while maintaining a polished look.

Long Square Tip
Offering a modern edge, the long square shape is a sleek choice for those who love clean lines and contemporary aesthetics.

Squoval
A hybrid of square and oval, the squoval shape strikes the perfect balance between elegance and edginess. This shape is ideal for creating a subtle yet stylish statement.
