Cookies and cream
Not all nail art designs are meant just for long nails, and here’s the proof you need. A very elegant combination of minty blue and clear polish, sprinkled with cookie crumble dripping down from the tips of the nails feels like a very unique take on the classic French manicure. We can’t wait to recreate this one.

Unicorn gelato
If you love all the pastel colours of fruity ice creams, then this nail art should be right up your alley. We love the unique combination of lilac and neon green with colourful sprinkles. Looks so fun!

Choco mint fudge
Here’s an opportunity to recreate another one of our favourite ice cream flavours right on your nails. The minty colour along with chocolate brown drippings and colourful sprinkles is making us crave a scoop of choco mint fudge.

'Strawberry cream
We have something really pretty in store for manicure minimalists as well. These baby pink drippings on pristine white nails gives looks divinely comforting, almost like the good ol’ strawberry cream on a cold winter day. The bright pink sprinkles give this manicure a lovely pop of colour.''
