We've broken down the top trends for the season that we can guarantee your clients are going to be obsessing over. Keep reading for all of your summer nails inspo.
Abstract Shapes
An Instagram fave which has been flooding our timelines is the abstract shapes trend. The key to this look is to not make each nail identical and to embrace the negative space. Remember, sometimes less is more when it comes to perfecting this trend.
We love this modern twist on a classic french manicure! We recommend using the Lecenté Striping Brush (S1) to get those precise shapes and lines.

A nude base is a must for this look but if your client loves a bit of colour, brighten it up with some pastel shades. The new, CND™ Colors of You collection will be perfect for achieving this look.

Butterflies
We're getting 90's vibes from this nail trend! Made popular by Kylie Jenner, this butterfly nail art is sure to be a favourite amongst your clients. To achieve the look, why not try the :YOURS Butterfly Garden Stamping Plate for perfect results every time.
