These “Quarantine Nails” Art Ideas Will Give You So Much At-Home Mani Inspo
Time to start practicing your nail-art skills while social distancing.
Since nail salons are closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, it means that the state of our nails is entirely in our hands. Social distancing, however, has given us plenty of free time to get creative and practice our nail-art skills.
If you’re looking for nail-art ideas for your next at-home manicure, we’ve rounded up the prettiest #quarantinenails from Instagram.
Nail Art Idea: Pink Cheetah Print
Channel your inner cheetah girl with this neon-pink manicure by English nail technician Julie-Anne Larivière. To re-create this look, you can use a bobby pin or toothpick if you don’t have your own brush at home.
Nail Art Idea: Easter Eggs
You need to hop on this cute pastel Easter egg manicure. All you need are some pastel nail polishes and one black color. To apply the dots, try using a toothpick so you can be extra precise with your placement.
Nail Art Idea: Neon Flames
How dope is this nail art?! If you’re feeling a bit daring, you need to paint the flames with a thin brush on your nails. Just try to keep your hand as steady as possible.
Nail Art Idea: Multicolored Brights
Instead of just painting your nails one cheery color, paint all your nails a different shade – it’s super cool. Take your mani the extra mile and highlight the edges of your nails with black polish.
Nail Art Idea: Rainbow Gem Jellies
These rainbow gem nails are a sure way to make your mani stand out in a crowd. To achieve this look, get creative and glue different colored gems on your nails.
Nail Art Idea: Checkerboard
Recreate this dope, eye-catching mani by applying one of the colors over the entire nail, and then, paint the other color over it.
Nail Art Idea: Tie Dye
Trust me you don’t need to be a pro to nail this summer look – pinky promise! All you need to do is to: 1) paint your nails with a base coat, 2) take your first nail color and paint a small blob on each nail and then use your eyeshadow applicator to gently dab the color and blend the edges. Repeat the second step using other colors, until you’ve covered the entire base.
