This understated manicure is the perfect match for sun-kissed skin

There’s a new manicure making the rounds this summer, and it’s quietly taking over. Dubbed coconut milk nails, it’s the subtle white polish that’s less shouty than chrome, more polished than sheer pinks, and just glowy enough to make your holiday tan look even better.

What sets this off-white tone apart is the balance. It’s not flat and chalky, nor overly shimmery. It lands somewhere between clean and creamy, with a high-gloss finish that feels fresh. It works on every skin tone and lets the rest of your look shine, which is exactly why it’s getting so much of it.

Bonus: this isn’t a complicated look to nail (sorry). A couple of coats, a swipe of glossy top coat, and you’re sorted. No glitter, no gradients, no effort. Just a manicure that’s neat, minimal, and sun-friendly.
