Apart from global nail trends, what, according to you, are the colours and textures that will surface this season?
Neon, floral hues such as pink and red, pristine white and reverse manicure with a negative space effect are some of the trends that will emerge this summer.
Could you share some nail tips for Summer 2015.
With or without nail enamour, always keep your nails clean and palm moisturised with a good sunscreen, hand lotion or cream. With the rising temperatures, nails are the worst affected due to the humidity.
What would you suggest to maintain the lustre and life of nails?
During summers, because of the sun and dust, our hands tend to become dry and nails can start layering. Apply cuticle oil to your nails and cuticles twice a day for healthy nail growth. Applying a nail hardener helps I strengthening the nails.
