Nail-care renaissance
Just as the seasons come and go, so do fashion and beauty trends—and that includes nails.
Last summer, it was all about the Hailey Bieber “Glazed Donut” nails and a modern take on the classic French manicure that took over TikTok and many other social media platforms. This year bold colors and press-on manicures and pedicures are having a major moment.
Yes, that is correct—press-on pedicures are a thing, and it seems that bold and bright colors, such as neons and the classic white, are not going anywhere this coming summer.
“I am all the rage on brights. I love the new imPRESS Press-on Pedicure Bubbly, which is a bright neon yellow and imPRESS Press-on Pedicure Feelings, a neon green,” said celebrity nail artist Elle Gerstein. “Also art on toes or matching/coordinating pedis are a trend.”
