Every now and then, manicurists manage to take nail art to a whole new level, giving the internet something to collectively gasp about. One of the most recent examples of this is, undeniably, sonogram nail art, which some moms are getting for sex reveal parties, baby showers, or to honor children who have passed. Now, another baby-themed nail art trend is getting buzz, and it's far more eyebrow-raising than heartwarming.

A Moscow-based nail art chain called Nail Sunny recently posted a video tutorial of their baby bottle manicure, which is created with acrylic nail design that actually houses a white liquid resembling milk or formula. It's unclear whether it is either of those things, but it sure looks bizarrely realistic when the bottle capper is pierced by the manicurist, and the liquid drips out in the video.

Most Instagram commenters reacted with horror, but one person did see the pragmatic benefit of a manicure like this: "Never running out of milk again when it's at the tip of your fingers.”

And as if that wasn't enough, the same chain took to Instagram on December 5 to share a manicure inspired by lactating breasts.

Seems like there are plenty of better ways to keep your L.O. fed. These are probably two bizarre manicures that don't need to catch on.
