Slime Green Nails Are Trending & It's Giving '90s Nickelodeon Vibes
If you need new inspiration for your next nail set, consider this blast from the past your best option. Slime green, an electric and bold color, is making a huge entry in the latest manicure trends. We already see '90s manicures coming back with an elevated 2023 remix, so it's no surprise celebrities like Hailey Bieber are taking a cue from some of our favorite Nickelodeon shows.
This trend is a huge jump from the chic minimalist nail designs, that have been popular these last few months. That's because, with summer around the corner, people are looking for bright colors and bold statements to walk into the season with. While this can make some people hesitant (especially if this is their first neon color) there are so many ways to incorporate the trend. Whether you are someone who likes to go bold or go home, or just a more subtle person, slime-green nails are for you.
Start with a French
If you are someone who is scared of the idea of venturing out, consider getting a slime-green French. These tips are amazing for introducing color to your manicure without committing to the whole nail. To get the look at home, paint your nails a subtle pink, and then color the tip once it's dry.
Dip your nails into slime green
If you're feeling a little bit more daring than the French tip, consider an ombré nail. It is amazing because it adds just the right amount of color to give a beautiful gradient effect. If done at the salon, show your nail technician a reference photo to demonstrate where you want the gradient to start.
Add a slime green design
Slime green is an amazing accent color to include in your manicure. Its electric nature will help any base color pop, making it the perfect statement for line work of any kind. Try simply swirling the color around the nail for a '70s look that is sure to get people talking.
A touch of gold for the perfect manicure
Foil is always an awesome way to add a fun flair to your manicure. While some might think the slime green is enough, a gold foil is for the people who want a little extra. The metallic touch creates a beautiful contrast between the two colors and is just as classy as it is fun.
Rhinestones are a girl's best friend
Rhinestones are a tried-and-true option that we love here at Glam. They come in a variety of colors to choose from, and you don't need many to make a statement. While it might be tempting to cover your nails with fun jewels, consider using them to make a statement nail.
Cheetah print goes with everything
This is one of the bolder options to choose from but it is perfect for the most daring people. Animal prints are so much fun, and because they are neutral they look amazing and are incorporated into your slime-green nail color. If going to a salon, make sure your nail technician has experience doing cheetah print for the best result.
Embrace the slime
While it might seem on the nose, this is the best way to incorporate slime green. Many of us have fond memories of watching Nickelodeon after school, so it makes sense to bring inspiration to your nails. Do a few statement tips to create a slimy French effect.
