No beach trip is complete without a little mermaid shine. To create this under-the-sea-inspired masterpiece, layer opaque metallic shades, allowing the colors to blend together on the nail before curing. Give the look some depth with a pearl topcoat.

Sometimes, the simple things are the most extraordinary. Inspired by a romantic night under the stars, this galaxy manicure will have your client over the moon. Kick-start the look by applying two coats of black nail polish. Then, use a glitter topcoat to add a night sky shimmer and adhere a few gems to reflect glimmering starlight.
Road Trippin’
There’s nothing more freeing than hopping in the car with a few of your friends and taking a road trip. As you cruise along, you’ll visit attractions, munch on snacks, sing along to your favorite tunes and admire the beauty of the countryside through the flowers you pass by. To recreate those memories for your clients, hand-paint your favorite wild flowers onto a soft pink base coat. Then, finish with a shiny topcoat inspired by the radiant roadside sun.
Tropical Vibes

Create a tropical look fit for an exotic getaway by combining a few bold shades. Begin with a neutral base coat, then hand-paint some bright tropical colors inspired by the ocean-side flora. For a refined look, use some striping tape to achieve clean, straight lines.
