  • Keke Palmer

    We all saw the dress she wore to the Usher concert that created an internet uproar but Keke Palmer's mani was and is always on point. She wore a nude look to the show and also sported coffin nails in June. Definitely a look to try this summer.

  • Yung Miami

    Caresha, known as Yung Miami, shows off her fresh pink nude manicure on the set of her Revolt show Caresha Please. The rapper opted for coffin-shaped nails at a medium length. Her choice of color can go perfectly with just about any summer outfit. While bright colors can feel like a huge commitment when coordinating with what you wear, a pinkish nude allows for more freedom - which is what summer is about. 

  • Lizzo

    "On Wednesday, we wear pink!" Lizzo said while wearing a bubble gum pink wig and bedazzled nails! The "Good As Hell" singer's nails were beaming with jewels. In this simple yet bold look, the rhinestones shined with hints of pink, green, and silver.

    The ultimate fly girl Saweetie wore these funky 70's inspired nails while performing for Pride. It's summer vibes with bright reds, yellows, greens, and blues. If you thought fun colored French tips were enough for this nail girlie, you thought wrong! Saweetie also added a mixture of flowers and bunny ears to compliment this art design making it a total masterpiece!

  • Hennessy Carolina

    Celebrity influencer and Cardi B's little sister sported lime green nails for a "chilled night" out; they were long and bold. Hennessy Carolina added a pair of lime green glasses with her all-black 'fit, making her nails pop even more. 

  • Ice Spice

    Who said you couldn’t wear black tips in the summertime? Ice Spice rocked that look on the set of her video shoot. The Barbie beauty is wearing medium-length squared-shaped nails, perfect for a working girl who likes to have a little fun with aesthetics. A silver glitter design takes it next level. This Barbie is nothing to be played with!

  • Jae Gurly

    Social media influencer Jae Gurly wore a fresh manicure while attending the Tony Awards. The clean look was a simple French tip with angled shaped lines instead of traditional straight across the nail. Gurly was all smiles as they put their freshly manicured nails on their hips—lowkey making us all jealous. A perfect summer nail for any occasion!

  • Dream Doll

    While holding a refreshing drink, Dream Doll shows off her two-toned nail design featuring a  French tip with a silver base, serving as the perfect foundation to add to the pink design. A 3D pink metallic line flows through the center nail, creating a simple yet cool aesthetic.  

  • Jordyn Woods

    Jordyn Woods has been rocking this fun nail design while on vacation with her family. Just a few simple black strokes create a fun nail design. We love this simple look paired with a white tank, black and white skirt, and flawless makeup.
