The Naked Manicure Trend Is the Spring Reset Your Nails Need

Naked Nails

Embrace the trend fully by skipping nail polish all together and focusing on nail care. We recommend buying a nail-benefitting base polish, like the Essie Grow Stronger Base Coat, and cuticle oil to keep your nails strong, hydrated and healthy-looking. 

Milky Naked Nails 

Milky-meets-naked nails is the effortless manicure trend minimalists will love. Simply find a nail polish with a creamy, sheer finish (we love Essie Sheers to You) and apply a thin coat so that your natural nail faintly comes through. 

Bedazzled Naked Nails 

If you can’t resist a glamorous manicure but still want to give your nails a break from polish, try adding some embellishments. These 3D gold studs add a chic twist to the trend. 

Sweetheart Nails

 

Combine naked nails with your favorite minimalist design for a fun and unexpected pop of color. Just be sure to prep your natural nails with a clear base coat before applying any dark color to prevent staining.

Make It Marble

 

Marble manicures aren’t going anywhere any time soon. These swirly designs pair perfectly with any base color, but we especially love it on a nude/naked nail for its dreamy and subtle look.
