It seems that the beauty industry will never stray away from "gastronomic" trends, especially when it comes to manicures. In the past, we have seen nail designs inspired by rainbows, "milk baths," fig-infused patterns, and "glazed donuts." So it's no surprise that social media is now buzzing with a new "culinary" idea.
Popular British blogger Molly Mae recently shared a manicure design that has been dubbed "ice cream" by users. Interestingly, this design has become quite popular among A-list celebrities. Selena Gomez, who recently starred in the musical "Emilia Parez," showcased a similar manicure at the film premiere. She traded the classic bright red shade of the 90s for a delicate pistachio color. Zendaya also rocked the same nails on the red carpet of the Golden Globes.
The perfect nail color for any occasion is Cameron Diaz's favorite, and she will convince you to wear it all the time. This manicure design imitates the appearance of melting scoops of soft pistachio ice cream. It features an ultra-glossy finish with a semi-translucent pink base and creamy white ombre on the tips. Its simple and sophisticated look makes it suitable for any outfit, from casual to extravagant evening wear.
Harriet Westmoreland, a renowned nail technician, is credited with creating this manicure design. She first shared it on her social media accounts. Westmoreland is known for her minimalist and stylish designs, and her client list speaks for itself, including singer Lily Allen, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Rita Ora.
To achieve a similar design, follow these key tips. Firstly, use a semi-translucent pink color that mimics a healthy nail bed to create a manicure that resembles melting ice cream. Secondly, this design looks best on natural nail lengths and shapes, such as short soft squares or medium-length ovals. Lastly, choose a high-quality top coat that provides a glossy finish and maintains its shine for as long as possible.
