Summer 2025's bold beauty trend: Embracing the natural pedicure

In the world of beauty, a season is approaching that surprises with its simplicity and authenticity. Everything indicates that the summer of 2025 will be marked by the "no pedicure" trend—a movement that embraces naturalness, freedom, and self-acceptance over perfectly painted toenails.

In recent years, we've observed a growing popularity of trends like "skinimalism" and the "clean girl aesthetic," which focus on naturalness and minimizing beauty routines, makeup, and aesthetic procedures. It seems that "naked nails" are simply an extension of this new approach to beauty.

Turn towards naturalness

To be clear—it's not just about removing gel polish, but showcasing the natural nail plate. The "no pedicure" trend is about abandoning perfectly painted nails in favor of healthy, well-maintained, but not necessarily "styled" feet. No polish, gel, or elaborate decorations. Instead, attention should be given to gentle exfoliation, regular moisturizing, and the overall condition of toenails.

This whole revolution is perfectly timed for vacation season. It's not about hiding "naked" nails in thick socks and winter boots, but flaunting naturalness in your favorite sandals.

According to information published in "Vogue," Selena Gomez promoted this trend at the Oscars. Then, it was Anne Hathaway's turn to sport "naked nails" on both her hands and feet. It certainly takes time to get used to the natural appearance of nails, but one thing is certain—giving up hybrid or gel manicures is a significant money saver every month.
