We can all agree that summer is the time for beaches, vacations, and treks, but its equally fantastic because of the seasonal fruits which are enjoyable from June to August. No other fruit marks summer like watermelon nail. Apart from being sweet and juicy, watermelon is also delectably refreshing. So here is some mani-pedi inspo for your next sunny day out.
Try being literal with a colorful watermelon inspired mani-pedi by putting little watermelon slices on your nails or use the watermelon fruit’s color as inspiration. The pink-red color found in watermelon is equally stunning in both jelly (Manicurist Active Glow Raspberry) and opaque (essie Watermelon) finishes. And when you add Gucci Beauty Vernis à Ongles Melinda Green to the mix, which is also known for its vibrant green tone, watermelon nails are the perfect combination of vibrant colors and high contrast polish.
