Love a nude manicure but want to take it on to the next level? Then an off-white lacquer might just become your new favourite. The more minimal cousin to the lip gloss or glazed donut nails, this new online nude nail trend is sure to take over your IG and TikTok feeds. Watch this space…
As bright white nail can stain and fade over time, but this uber chic evolution of the colour, along with its signature super mirror-shine topcoat, is a tonal dream.
Neons in spring? You bet. I didn’t think I’d ever see the day either but this joyous orange hue has become my most saved inspiration photo on both Instagram and TikTok.
Maybe it’s because of the colour’s mood-boosting, zesty vibrance? Or perhaps it’s a sign of deep summer longing? Either way, as a past advocate of darker polish shades right through to April, right now orange truly is the new black.
Orange nails of any kind are the perfect way to inject some spring-time optimism into into your manicure. And rest assured you don’t have to necessarily go neon-bright with your orange polish, it’s just as happiness-inducing to opt for a pastel tone instead.
A pastel pearly manicure is an overarching colour trend that is long overdue its moment in the sun. Choose a pink or lilac tone and give it a mermaid-style shimmer over the top.
Yes, we all saw it coming, but thanks to inspiration from the much-awaited Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig spectacular, Barbiecore is here to stay. There’s something quite healing about beauty’s return to such a bold colour, as we are all here for it!
