I’m a summer girl through and through. Everything about me just feels better once the weather warms up—my wardrobe, my makeup, my mood. I fully come alive in the summer months, and as a beauty editor, few things excite me more than planning a perfect summer manicure every couple of weeks.
From pearly, sunlit finishes to beachy patterns that look straight off the shores of Capri, June’s nail trends are all about vacation-ready designs. Be warned, getting one of these fresh manicures may or may not have you cashing in all your miles to book that girls trip.
Ahead, the best June nail ideas to wear for every beach day, long weekend, and summer getaway on your calendar.
Maybe I’m subconsciously manifesting a Euro summer that entails sitting on a beach on the coast of Italy or Greece, but I’ve been obsessed with these beach holiday-inspired manicures. Add on some motifs from your dream destination, whether it be the juicy lemons of the Amalfi Coast or the iconic blue tiles of Mykonos; there’s no wrong way to achieve the Mediterranean mani.
Every few months I’m enamored by the latest chrome nail trend that emerges, and recently it’s been watercolor nails layered with a reflective top coat. Choose a few of your favorite hues, or go for a rainbow effect with the entire color spectrum.
Whether it’s a string necklace dotted with pearly beads or a shell revealing a luminous ocean treasure, it’s the ultimate warm-weather jewel. And now, that same beachy iridescence is making its way onto our manicures. Go for a simple milky white base, or choose some pastels, then top your fingers off with a structured gel for texture and a topcoat to pearl-ify your nails.
Poolside blue is easily one of the hottest polish shades of the season—just picture that crisp, sparkling blue water on a hot summer day. This elevated take on bright blue feels especially chic for summer, and adding a chrome finish only makes it better. Poolside blue, French tips, and chrome—it’s a manicure trend combo practically made for vacation season.
Nothing screams summer quite like a floral manicure, and airbrushed blooms make the trend feel perfect for the warm months. The diffused petals almost look like watercolor flowers pressed onto your nails. Add one—or a whole bouquet—atop a milky base for a fresh summer garden-inspired manicure.
I’m a certified bug hater, but somehow tiny critters look ridiculously cute on the nails. Whether you go for ladybugs, dragonflies, or even little bees, the miniature details add such a whimsical touch to any manicure trend. They’re tiny enough to still feel chic, especially paired with a sheer or natural-looking base.
