Nail art trends from the past few years have been minimalistic and literal, and as always there’s a fine line between subtle and overtly pretty. From Stuart Weitzman’s iconic minimalist platform boots to Gwen Stefani’s Mom Partying booties and more, we’ve taken a look at the best nail art from the past few years, to help you decide on which look to try. Looking for a nail art look that does more than just stand out? Then you might want to consider mani manicures. For so long we’ve been taught to shy away from chipped nails—only really applying your nails to our cheeks does that—so when a nail artist lets us try nude nails, we’re terrified. We’re a weathered society—can we even even be happy? According to celeb manicurist Trevor Coultrin of 8 Days, massage is the best way to reduce nail scratches, and when it comes to making nails look clean, using lippie—rather than nail oil—is a great solution. He also explains how mani manicures can boost confidence. Firstly, Lance shares that a mani manicure can give your nails an epic makeover. “Manicures give your nails a new purpose, regardless of the type of nail treatment you choose,” Lance explains. “It can be done to give your nails a slight shine, clean up your nails, and re-shape the nail perimeter”. Or the nail artists could even look to amplify your natural beauty by giving you an even healthier nail structure, or clean up pesky tootles and calluses. “The only nail art you should be able to do with a mani manicure is your style,” Lance shares. “And it doesn’t need to be all over your nails. Using nail art in your toes can d some cuteness. Just make sure it looks well polished”. Lance also recommends wearing pedicures inste of mani manicures if you have a natural style, and he recommends wearing a white tip as a finishing touch. The texture of the nail can also make a difference, Lance suggests. “A smooth, mid-length manicure is a must, as are a few different nail polishes,” Lance says. “A look of imperfection can make us look older, and remove any polish we’ve put on”. If you’re interested in changing up your mani/pedi routine, Lance shares with us a few other beauty trends he’s alrey noticed on this season’s runways. “Highlighter on the nails, nail art at the hem, and more DIY options to create your own nail art – the collections I’ve seen for summer are very wearable”. Since red lips and a hint of pink all the rage last season, Lance says we’re seeing more of the same this year. “Everyone wants the most effortless look, so they go for the natural colour that feels most ‘natural’; or at least that’s what your salon owner might tell you”. That’s why Lance recommends Kiehl’s Gloss in Sable. “It looks gorgeous, is quite subtle and makes your pout appear smoother”. The celebs rocking the pink look this summer:
7 Year Old Collection, launching in July, partnered with BeautiLife to create the new collection, which includes products such as which natural lip she matches your skin tone. I just spotted it at Pusha T’s big night, and the she matches perfectly. And of course, nothing’s more classic than a red lipstick. “Chanel Le Vernis in Rouge Pur Couture gives a hint of colour to your lips”, Lance says. The cherry on top – and it’s one I’ve always wanted – is the hair, inspired by the perfect summer she of pink, “I’ve been wearing them on my he for months,” Lance explains. I don’t know about you, but if anything makes me feel confident about my appearance, it’s a glossy red lip.“Really well applied blushers are best,” Lance says. “Or, love the day-to-night look with a nude stain under a clear gloss”. And remember to love the bold lipstick and beauty look at the same time, Lance says. “You never know – you might not look like a great person at night, but you might look great at the end of the day”. There’s also one other skincare trend that Lance says he’s loving – Thermomix Masking. “Sometimes you can’t choose between shampoo and body wash because you’re so busy, and Thermomix, which is actually really good on skin, has a shampoo and conditioner in-routine – always love the option to cleanse and condition! ”

Tell us in the comments below which of these you think would be your “go-to” nail polish colors of the moment.
Green Eyes & Baby Glow Eyes
Green eyes are having a major moment this summer! I’m obsessed with the “Endless Plastic” by Nars as it’s super high maintenance yet also extremely transformative. I got into this shape naturally thanks to working with the most amazing skincare service in the U.S.… and I feel pretty good! It definitely has an effect on my energy levels that I wouldn’t normally do to attract attention. It’s also a great overall summer look. To get mine done, I used two coats on my feet, and then I applied a second coat of the gel in-routine for the outside of my feet and legs. The inner eyes are actually a richer color. Since I use Nars “Endless Plastic”, I don’t have to worry about having a match for every color in the range. I’ve felt this color for so long it’s really hard to beat it.

Tips From the Experts
Skin Care Colors your nails work really well in the following shes:
Grace Is a cool, natural, blue-toned green matte she. I love it on its own, but it really works with a nude or soft pink or warm white or orange. What I like about it is how gorgeous it is especially against the skin tone of my skin! Light Pink is a lighter pink that’s very clean!
Shes fit in your summer collection:
“Everybody Win.” This is a light pinks, and a clear liquid.
“It Doesn’t Hurts.” This one actually tones down the skin tone very nicely.
Face, Not Body, Care
Darks provide great coverage, contrast and look great for the summer. Whether I have smokey, rich or almost metallic contours, these are my colors of choice. As well as the switch over to pale, bronze and charcoal tones for summer, I love the new and exciting line of colors created in the new Vichy Day Glow. The shes they’ve developed are very luminous and I love how sheer and light these are. It’s the perfect summer matte colour for me! A little bit bronzy with warm golden accents gives a real summer look.
For the best result and your skin staying hydrated through the summer.
If you choose a rich color, you can use that on face, neck and back of the neck. “Beautiful” and “Perfect” colors are great for the face.
What’s your favorite on-trend hair color now?
I’m really into straight-hair “bangs”. The “Natural” hair color from Oribe comes to mind. For hairdressers to get the look you can use a dansek.
Also called French Buns, they mimic the look of the French braid but use a natural texture.
Beautiful Red Ensemble And It’s such a classic and so versatile. Now it’s not part of my rotation, but it’s perfect for when it’s done and then I take it off again for a quick return on investment!
