Frosted Finish

If this season has been any indication, glazed donut manicures arent going anywhere next year. But 2024s iteration will feature a more subdued, frosted finish. Backstage at Alice + Olivia, Sundays Studio created frosty, snow-capped manicures that let the nail tips shine through for a subtle, muted French.

Autumn Communications

At Sandy Liang, manicurist Holly Falcone used KIKI Worlds Pretty Nail Graffiti in the shade Pearl ($29) to give the models ethereal nails that are also surprisingly easy to recreate: To get the look, she applied two coats of polish, then randomly placed dots of eyelash adhesive to the nails and fingers. After the glue dried for a few seconds to a tacky texture, she added crystals.

Inspired by designer Patricia Bonaldis (AKA PatBo) love of embroidery, celebrity nail artist and KISS brand ambassador Gina Edwards used the brands Glazed Donut Nails in Frosted ($12) as a canvas on which to create stunningly detailed accent nails with real lace and crystals.

Magic Chrome-nts
