5 Great Ideas for Summer Manicures & Pedicure
Summertime means bright nail polish colors for toes and fingers! But you don’t want just any manicure for the summer...check out these fantastic ideas for summer nail polish colors and designs so you have a manicure that stands out.
Bright nail polish colors
Quick trips to the beach are on everyone’s mind during the summer. So why not let the tropical escape influence your mani? We recommend bright nail polish colors like greens, pinks, and aquas to put you in a summer state of mind. Check out the Sheer Lust Exotic Nail Polish Collection for a great idea of the perfect shades of summer nail polish.
Fruit Nail Art
Nothing is more delicious than a bowl of strawberries or a slice of watermelon on a hot day. Why not show off the sweet taste of summer on your nails! Whether it is strawberry, pineapple, or watermelon nails, your fruit mani makes for a tasty summer treat.
Ombre
Ombre is a great way to show off multiple favorite summer shades. Try combining similar tones for a more classic look; fade out Poudrée Pink with our deep purple China, two amazing summer nail polish colors. Or, if you want to be more bold, try using some metallic shades. We love the look of Summer Star yellow paired with metallic marmalade.
Nautical Theme
A classic nail art motif is to go nautical. Try using Sheer Lust’s Ivory as a base coat, and layer it with red and blue stripes for a classic nautical-themed mani. Or paint your nails with Exhale, a deep red, and contrast it with a blue and white striped accent nail.
Retro Mani
There is no better way to mix up your mani than with retro nail art. You can create your own floral print using summer nail polish colors like greens, reds, pinks, and purples for the perfect look. When mixing and matching so many different colors, be sure to stick with a neutral base color like white, black, or our Pinot Noir.
