Lip Oils

Vanilla chrome is one of the newest trends in nails. It’s a chrome powder over a nude lacquer for a glossy lip oil finish. Select from a sheer nude, a pearly pink, or a vibrant shade for the base color. Apply a couple coats of a glossy topcoat for the best lip oil finish.

Milky nails

It's a soft alternative to stark white or sheer nude manicures. Essentially, it is a shimmering, chrome-like white. Try two coats of a sheer, white lacquer, such Glosslab nail-strengthening nail paint in OG White or OG Cotton, and then one application of shimmer gel polish. Alternatively, you can create the effect at home by combining three drops of topcoat with a creamy white polish like Chanel Le Vernis Blanc Écume 927. Add a topcoat to complete.
