Revive Your Art

The festival goer proves that nail art isn’t dead with crystal and bead encrusted nails.

08
Peachy Keen

Add fun colors like peachy pinks to your polish arsenol to take your nails from drab to fab.

Shimmer Splendor

Who says your french mani has to be uniformed? Coat the tip of one or two nails with your favorite shimmer polish for nails that look as if they’ve been dipped in sugar.

Pepper and Pink

Pair a habanero-hued mani with pink lips like our own, Gia Peppers!

All White Everything

Looking for a modern take on the classic french manicure? Try topping a white base with platium white tips.
