Finest consider the entire GLAMOUR workplace was #influenced when our social media editor, Robyn, walked in with a recent set of hibiscus nails. For background, we commonly wait with bated breath when Robyn forewarns us she’ll be arriving with a recent mani as a result of it is all the time so rattling good.
So, after we bought a flash of tropical pink, lagoon inexperienced and orchid purple we knew we have been onto our subsequent fave mani pattern.
Now that 3D nail artwork has reached our favorite salons, we have observed a complete new wave of creativity in manicures, however one particularly are the 3D flower nails that – since that beautiful intro from Robyn – have dominated our Insta feed and fyp.
Hibiscus nails and different beachy flower nails, like orchids, have emerged as one of many largest (and most mood-boosting) nail tendencies of summer time 2024. They’re heavy on tropical escapism and vacay vibes, which is precisely what we’d like, even after we’re clacking away on our keyboards within the workplace.
It is also a chance for nail artists to flex their inventive skills. One creator, Anouska Anastasia, took followers behind the scenes of her tropical 3D flower mani to indicate the intricacy and artistry that may go into making a bespoke floral mani.
She hand-painted every petal onto a transparent sheet utilizing white gel polish from OPI’s new GelColor Intelli-Gel vary (which she cured to set), then used a tremendous detailer brush so as to add in all the main points. She used tweezers to curve the centre of her flowers in to create a realistic-looking orchid.
