TRENDS

WE TOTALLY UNDERSTAND IF you’re not on-board with it—tons of factors such as your job and even just plain preference can keep you from committing to those extra inches. But who said nail length has anything to do with all the fun looks you can create? That said, short nails shouldn’t get in the way of you getting playful and bold with your looks—in fact, it may just be the sunshine that you need! CHERRIES JUBILEE For an extra sweet look, paint some cherries over a nude base and watch your nails be the cherry on top of your OOTD! If you don’t have a dotting tool at home, a cotton bud can deliver the same effect—just make sure you don’t press too hard and risk getting cotton stuck onto your nails!

GLITTER AND GLAM The easiest way to make your nails look dazzling is by painting it in eye-catching glitter! For this look, we recommend using holographic glitter since it’ll give you a different vibe depending on how the light hits your fingertips.

RETRO CHIC Don’t these colorful circles remind you of vivid, retro prints? Designs like these are super easy to recreate at home and are versatile enough to work with any color palette, which makes it a perfect go-to nail look!

SIMPLE BOUQUET For the more dainty girls, a simple multicolored look with one or two statement nails would work wonders, such as adorable flowers on the pointer and middle fingers. Opt to create blooms in the same or similar hues as your other nails to keep the look tied together.

CONFETTI Got some left over art supplies? Use them on your nails! Grab some glitter confetti in multiple shapes to create a nail look that calls for a celebration. The great thing about this design is that you can pair any random colors or shapes together and it’ll still look super cute!

NAILED IT It’s no secret that the perfect manicure can elevate any look. The thing is, when you search up nail art inspiration online, you’ll probably be faced with pictures of thousands of celebrities and influencers donning the acrylic nails trend.
