My entire vibe for summer 2023 is “more is more,” bb. I will be clipping in tinsel hair extensions, slathering on layers of glowy body oil, and drawing on wings with the brightest-colored eyeliners I can find. And the one area I will be especially maximalist on is my nails, because summer 2023 nail trends did not come to play. Scroll through celebrity nail artists on IG, or check out the spring/summer 2023 runways, and you’ll see neon nail colors, dangly nail jewelry, textured nail designs, and chrome everything.
And of course, I scoured Instagram for all the best summer 2023 nail trends, then asked nail artists Miki Higuchi, Jin Soon Choi, Areia Nguerebanda, and Kameron Lange to give me the lowdown on how to DIY these looks at home (you might wanna stock up on some press-on nail kits and chrome nail powder). Now keep scrolling for all the ~lewks~ on my 2023 mood board:
