As the summer months approach, the beauty team is excited to share their latest nail trends, showcasing vibrant and unexpected colors and designs that are sure to make a statement. The beauty team has been keeping up to date with the latest 2025 nail trends, and this July, they’ve tripped over some bold and bright choices that are anything but dull. From sorbet nails and ombre French tip nails to delicate, milky pastels and glossy black pedicures, the options are endless. One of the standout trends of the month is the use of juicy fruit-inspired hues, such as strawberry margarita and mint green. These colors are not only fun and playful but also add a touch of whimsy to any summer outfit. Another trend that’s gaining popularity is the ombre French tip nail, which has been dubbed the “ice-cream manicure.” This look features a gradual transition from one color to another, creating a unique and eye-catching effect. In addition to these trends, the beauty team has spotted a few unexpected hues emerging on social media and the red carpet, including glossy black pedicures and wine-like reds and burgundies. These bold and daring choices are perfect for those who want to make a statement and try something new.
