The “Water-Droplet” Nail Art Trend For Summer Is Just as Juicy As It Sounds

12/07/2021 - 09:57 PM

One of the summer's most popular nail art trends [1] is so hot, it will leave you dripping — quite literally. The "water-droplet" nail art trend, as seen on Kylie Jenner and the hands of celebrity manicurist Mei Kawajiri [2]'s clients, makes it look like you were caught in a rainstorm and tiny water droplets got frozen in time on your nails. The result is an unconventional manicure design that gives the illusion of wet and juicy fingertips.

Despite how real the "droplet" manicure looks, the shiny beads of water on the nails are actually made from hardened gel or globs of clear nail polish and applied in a way that gives 3D texture to your nails. Jenner debuted water-droplet nail art [3] in June on top of neon orange french tips for a fun twist [4].
