This summer, an ultra-fresh trend is gently making its way to the tips of our nails: the <strong><u>fruit skin nails<\/u><\/strong> manicure. Also known as \u201cfruit nails\u201d or \u201cpeel polish,\u201d this delicious and vitamin-rich trend gives your hands a sorbet-glazed-cocktail effect. Just like a fruity sorbet, here\u2019s a closer look at this trend that smells like sunshine, ripe peaches, and fingers dipped in a slushie. I know it sounds tempting, and after reading this article, I promise you will want to adopt it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are fruit skin nails?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Inspired by the <strong><u>skin of fruits<\/u><\/strong> (hence its name), the <strong><u>\u201cfruit skin\u201d manicure<\/u><\/strong> is not about painting strawberries on your nails. It\u2019s more of a subtle and sensory approach: we play with <strong><u>translucent polishes<\/u><\/strong>, <strong><u>jelly effects<\/u><\/strong>, <strong><u>shiny reflections<\/u><\/strong>, and sometimes <strong><u>micro-glitters<\/u><\/strong>, to create an ultra-fresh \u201cjuicy skin\u201d effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine a manicure that evokes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the glossy red of a ripe cherry,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the soft pink of a fresh lychee,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the translucent green of a crunchy grape,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>or the bright orange of an apricot.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The result? <strong><u>Natural and luminous nails<\/u><\/strong>, as if enveloped in a thin layer of fruity syrup.

Second reason: if you are, like most of us, in Europe, summer is taking a bit of time to start, and we want at least some sunshine on our nails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>1. A simple and flattering trend<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No need for long nails or to be a nail art pro. The fruit skin manicure <strong><u>adapts to all lengths<\/u><\/strong> and flatters all skin tones. Its \u201chealthy and hydrated nail\u201d effect is both <strong><u>chic, light, and very modern<\/u><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>2. A natural alternative to classic French nails<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you like discreet yet trendy manicures, this is the perfect option. Far from kitschy patterns or neon colors, the <strong><u>glossy fruity manicure<\/u><\/strong> brings a <strong><u>touch of freshness<\/u><\/strong> without overdoing it. And if you really love kitsch, go all out with little patterns like &#8220;fruit basket or small colored checks&#8221; that evoke the countryside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>3. A guaranteed mood booster<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fruity colors have a real power over our mood. A cherry red or a jelly lemon yellow instantly boosts a minimalist outfit and pairs perfectly with your summer looks. Personally, to lift my spirits, I\u2019ve long preferred a manicure session over a shopping spree; try it, you\u2019ll see!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DIMYlh3ueyN\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\"background:#FFF;border:0;border-radius:3px;margin: 1px;max-width:540px;min-width:326px;padding:0;width:99.375%;width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px);width:calc(100% - 2px)\"><div style=\"padding:16px\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DIMYlh3ueyN\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" style=\"background:#FFFFFF;line-height:0;padding:0 0;text-align:center;text-decoration:none;width:100%\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <div style=\"flex-direction: row;align-items: center\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;flex-grow: 0;height: 40px;margin-right: 14px;width: 40px\"><\/div> <div style=\"flex-direction: column;flex-grow: 1;justify-content: center\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;margin-bottom: 6px;width: 100px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;width: 60px\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div style=\"padding: 19% 0\"><\/div> <div style=\"height:50px;margin:0 auto 12px;width:50px\"><\/div><div style=\"padding-top: 8px\"> <div style=\"color:#3897f0;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:550;line-height:18px\">View this post on Instagram<\/div><\/div><div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0\"><\/div> <div style=\"flex-direction: row;margin-bottom: 14px;align-items: center\"><div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;height: 12.5px;width: 12.5px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;height: 12.5px;width: 12.5px;flex-grow: 0;margin-right: 14px;margin-left: 2px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;height: 12.5px;width: 12.5px\"><\/div><\/div><div style=\"margin-left: 8px\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;flex-grow: 0;height: 20px;width: 20px\"><\/div> <div style=\"width: 0;height: 0;border-top: 2px solid transparent;border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4;border-bottom: 2px solid transparent\"><\/div><\/div><div style=\"margin-left: auto\"> <div style=\"width: 0px;border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4;border-right: 8px solid transparent\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;flex-grow: 0;height: 12px;width: 16px\"><\/div> <div style=\"width: 0;height: 0;border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4;border-left: 8px solid transparent\"><\/div><\/div><\/div> <div style=\"flex-direction: column;flex-grow: 1;justify-content: center;margin-bottom: 24px\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;margin-bottom: 6px;width: 224px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;width: 144px\"><\/div><\/div><\/a><p style=\"color:#c9c8cd;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:17px;margin-bottom:0;margin-top:8px;overflow:hidden;padding:8px 0 7px;text-align:center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DIMYlh3ueyN\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" style=\"color:#c9c8cd;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:17px;text-decoration:none\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A post shared by Prim &amp; Polish (@primandpolishfoco)<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to do fruit skin nails at home?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No need for complicated equipment. Here are the <strong><u>3 key steps<\/u><\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>1. Apply a shiny base coat<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is essential for a clean and luminous finish. It also protects your nails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>2.

Good news: they already have collections suited to this trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>3. Finish with a gel or glossy top coat<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is what gives the famous plump effect, slightly rounded.
