It’s officially early fall! Back to school season is in full swing and meteorological fall is already here. Astronomical fall is later in the month. 

Early fall is that time of year right around late August and into September, and it’s the perfect time to embrace nail looks that help you transition into full autumn fashion.

True autumn nail looks tend to be moodier and vampier than early fall, however, early fall nails can have hints of those aesthetic vibes, too.

Early fall nails can include neutrals, lingering sunny shades and darker colors.

Below, you’ll find 5 early fall nail ideas to inspire your next manicure:

L.A. Colors Color Craze Gel Dusty Rose

Thank you to L.A. Colors for sending us this shade to share!

Shown in 2 coats, Dusty Rose is a classy, pretty and feminine creamy fall pink with mauve undertones. In the bottle, it looks like a mauve leaning nude, but on the nails, it’s clearly a pinkish mauve.

It has an elegant, easy to apply formula and is shown with the L.A. Girl Gel Shine Top Coat.

L.A. Colors Color Craze Gel Beaming

Thank you to L.A. Colors for sending us this shade to share!

Shown in 3 coats, this is a scattered holo gold glitter sparkle. It looks fabulous in full sunlight! Gold nail polish like this lightens my mood because it reminds me I have plenty to be thankful for, if I’m wearing gold on my nails.

Temu Press On Nails - Black Petal French Tips

Temu Press On Nails - Black Petal French Tips

Temu Black Petal French Tips Press Ons in Medium Almond

These are press on nails from Temu and they’re adhered with CurvLife Semi Solid Nail Glue. What I like about this set is they’re a more artistic version of the classic Black French Tip that is so popular this time of year, and they’re thin, so they look natural to the nail bed.

OPI You Don't Know Jacques! swatch

OPI You Don’t Know Jacques!

Shown in 2 easy coats and from the Fall 2010 Suede Collection, You Don’t Know Jacques! is an OPI Icon and a classic for autumn. It’s technically in the greige category, though, in the bottle it looks more like a brown and on the nail it looks more like warm purple with brown undertones. 

Whether you call it greige, brown or purple, when you wear this shade it’s clear to see why it’s a fan favorite - it’s smooth, creamy and pleasing on the eyes.

OPI My Private Jet swatch

OPI My Private Jet

Shown in 2 coats, My Private Jet is an OPI Cult Classic from 2007. It’s a dark brown with holographic micro shimmers that’s nearly opaque in 1 coat. If you’re looking for a dark brown that provides a bit of a dopamine boost from the rainbow sparkle, this polish is another fan favorite to consider.

My Private Jet responds well to the ambient light. Indoor lighting gives the sparkle a muted look, where outdoor lighting amplifies the rainbow effect.
