Minimal manicures aren’t going anywhere, but this week, the best nail looks seem determined to make them a little more interesting. The base colors are still sheer, soft, and incredibly wearable. It’s what happens on top that gives each look a little more oomph.
A classic French manicure gets a sliver of gold along the tips, while a milky pink set fades into a brighter aura at the center. Even the week’s more playful designs exercise some restraint. Tiny multicolored gems are scattered across otherwise bare nails, and pastel teal tips add just enough color without taking over the entire manicure. The same pared-back mood extends to pedicures, where clean, barely-there polish feels particularly right for the final stretch of sandal season.
