Style Description: Zodiac Nails feature a soft halo of color that represents your zodiac sign’s energy, creating an appealing look that can range from bold and vibrant to soothing pastel shades. To achieve the look, start with a base coat then paint multiple shades of the same hue onto nails before blending with an ombre sponge or fine brush for best results.

Add silver chrome accents or tiny star decals for an eye-catching effect, or take it one step further by creating raised droplets and lines with builder gel to take your aura nails to another level with 3D effects.

Chrome Nails

Chrome nails have quickly become an industry trend due to their shiny mirror-like finish that draws immediate attention. Worn solo or as accent nails, chrome nail art makes a bold statement with any ensemble. This stylish trend makes an impactful fashion statement!

This technique involves applying either a gel or regular base coat, then carefully brushing on chrome powder using a soft applicator. After brushing on, seal it all with no-wipe top coat – this smooth surface repels dirt while reducing chipping risk, keeping your nails shiny for weeks!

The versatile finish is sure to look incredible on any color imaginable, from delicate white hues to vibrant metallics and holographic hues – the results are endless! This manicure is ideal for those who desire an eye-catching look without all of the maintenance hassle.

Naked French Tips

Naked nails aren’t just limited to gym classes; they’re an elegant style that elevates your natural nail color while looking chic on all lengths. From sheer white polishes to more opaque hues, you can achieve this sophisticated style that suits any taste or preference.

This trend is eco-friendly as well, focusing on nail strength and hydration through products with less chemicals. Plus, its neutral tones add the perfect touch to any outfit!

Not to mention, this manicure is especially fitting for those with shorter nails as its subtle contrast doesn’t cause as much shock when compared with traditional French tips. Furthermore, it makes short rounded nails look even better as evidenced by model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley who wears this look herself! To get this look for yourself simply ask your manicurist to use light pink with off-white tips as the tip color choice.

Cat-Eye Nails

Cat-eye nails offer a twist on the trendy metallic manicure trend, typically featuring a subtle metallic line that flickers across each nail in an attempt to replicate feline eyes glinting mischievously at you. Nail influencers such as Melanated Mani create stunning cat-eye manicures reminiscent of scenes straight out of a fairy tale.

To create the look, you’ll need a gel polish infused with metal particles and a magnet tool. After applying your polish, use the magnet tool to shift its metal particles into your desired patterns based on where and how you place or move the magnet tool, according to Apple. “By playing around with where and how the magnet moves around your face, different looks can be created,” states Apple.

VENDEENI magnetic gel polishes are specially-crafted to provide maximum durability and lasting color payoff, meeting an increasing demand for healthier beauty options – making them the ideal solution for salons and nail artists looking to expand their offering of innovative services.
