Every autumn has its colour, and this year it is unmistakably chocolate. At March14 Beauty <a href="https://menainsights.com/burtville-developments-launches-bab-al-qasr-beach-resort-residence-77-on-al-reem-island/”>Residence, Dubai’s trendiest destination for nails, brown has fast become the shade everyone is asking for, with clients booking in for everything from milky mocha to near-black cacao. It makes perfect sense. Brown sits somewhere between a nude and a statement: rich enough to feel like a choice, soft enough to wear with everything, and flattering on every skin tone. In Dubai, where autumn arrives as a mood long before the temperature drops, a chocolate manicure is the easiest way to feel the season change right at your fingertips.
Inside the Residence, the Nail Art Theatre has been interpreting the trend in more ways than one. The chocolate glaze, a glossy brown base finished with a fine, light-catching shimmer, is the look clients keep coming back for, while chocolate chrome takes the same shade somewhere more reflective and quietly luxe.
Getting brown right is harder than it looks, and this is where March14 really comes into its own. A shade that is slightly too warm, too grey, or too flat can throw off the whole manicure, which is why the Residence’s library of over 1,900 natural, toxic-free colours matters so much here. Whether a client suits a creamy latte, a classic milk chocolate, a cherry-tinged cacao or an espresso so deep it is almost black, there is a brown made for them. From there, a team of nail technicians skilled in everything from flawless gel to hand-painted art and sculptural extensions takes it wherever the client wants to go, on nails of any length or shape. Pair it with a nail keratin treatment to keep the natural nail strong underneath, and chocolate season has never looked so good.
