Ashley Benson has a solution for anyone who loves the supermodel nails trend [2], but wants something a bit more unique. In a mirror selfie posted on Instagram on Aug. 24, the actor can be seen having a little self-care moment with her hair up and a face mask on, but her supermodel nails with a geometric twist are what really grabbed our attention.
For those who don't know, supermodel nails have been a mainstay in Hollywood for the past year. The manicure is characterized by a neutral, sometimes sheer, wash of colour [3] on the nails with clean nail beds. It gives the look of barely there nail polish [4], like your natural nails but better. Supermodel nails are great, but if you're someone who likes to make more of a statement with your manicure, the design-less look can be a little too underwhelming — but Benson's take on the trend remedies that.
On top of a light pink, neutral base, each of Benson's fingers is decorated with a different geometric design in black fine lines. Her pointer fingers have a half-moon shape at the nail bed; her middle fingers, have a small triangle; and her pink fingers contain a small black dot. But the real standout detail can be found on her ring fingers: a large evil eye [5] with spiky lashes extending up from the bottom of her nails.
The manicure is still minimal, but eye-catching, making it perfect for transitioning into fall. Take a closer look at Benson's nails for yourself, ahead.
