NAIL this season’s hottest beauty trends as manicures get weird and wonderful.
If you are too nervous to introduce neons and tribal prints to your wardrobe, you can now try going wild on your nails instead.
Here are some options at your fingertips:
BLEACHED
neon nails, above, have been big on the catwalks this spring as Drew
Barrymore-style dip-dyed hair inspires dip-dyed talons.
To
get the look, simply paint a bright candy shade on your nail bed, then
wipe off half the varnish with a cotton pad soaked in remover.
Perfect match
MATCHING
make-up is back in fashion. Paint short, square-shape nails with a deep
shade such as Perfection Quick Dry Nail Polish in Purple Rain or Dark
Magenta (£5) and team it with Perfection Perfect Moisture Lipstick in
Blackberry (£6, M&S).
Or
for chip-free nails for up to three weeks, try OPI GelColor in Miami
Beet or Lincoln Park After Dark (from £40, lenawhite.co.uk ).
Mother of pearls
GET
luxury-look nails with 3D caviar pearls. Manicurist Zoe Pocock, whose
clients include Lady GaGa, says: “Apply two coats of varnish, then
sprinkle caviar pearls over your nail while they're still wet. Gently
press and compact the pearls.”
Buy Ciate caviar sets (£18) at Selfridges or ciate.co.uk .
Fashion tribe
TRIBAL
is a key look this spring and that extends to your hands. You can get
the look quickly and easily with nail stickers such as Nail Rock Tribal
Print Designer Nail Wraps, (£6.65, missguided.co.uk ).
Simply
stick them firmly to your nail and file into shape. Use Nail Rock Dirty
Works Jewelled Nail File (£2.99) and a 4-Sided Buffer Block (£2.99)
from Sainsbury’s.
