Milk-Bath Nails Are the Unofficial Manicure of the Cannes Film Festival

24/05/2022 - 08:10 PM

There have been quite a few head-turning beauty moments on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet. From trendy "bixie" haircuts [1] to outfit-completing hair accessories [2], we've been served endless mood board-worthy inspiration. But with four days left of the festival, one trend that's making the rounds is milk-bath nails [3].

Seen on Kristen Stewart [4], Bella Hadid, and Elle Fanning, the popular manicure has actually been trending since the beginning of this year. "Milk-bath nails are acrylic nails [5] where colourful dried flowers are embedded into a milky colour acrylic," celebrity manicurist Elle Gerstein [6] previously told POPSUGAR. "You can also opt to lean in to the 'milky; colour and skip the floral element, depending on your personal preference," which is what most of the stars at Cannes did.

The manicure has also been a popular engagement nail look, proving its versatility. Simone Biles [7] and Nicola Peltz Beckham [8] announced their engagement and got married, respectively, while wearing milk-bath nails and Jennifer Lopez [9] very appropriately wore the nail look [10] while promoting her romantic comedy movie, "Marry Me."

If you're in the mood to try your hand at the milk-bath manicure trend, we rounded up some of the best iterations of the look from the Cannes Film Festival, ahead.
