My favorite shade of pink is called “Blush Essence” and I like to use it with the “Matte Marvel” top coat for a subtle yet captivating finish.
Start by applying a layer or two of “Blush Essence” over a protective base, curing between each coat. If you want more inspiration from summer months but still keep things looking natural try swiping some “Matte Marvel” on top so they turn into modern mattes.
Safari Chic
A design with animal prints is a strong statement that is fashionable forever. This look is bad but bougie with neutral taupe shades and a bold leopard print accent nail.
- Taupe Gel Polish
- Black Nail Art Pen
- Gold Nail Art Pen
- Top Coat
I like to use “Sahara Shadow” as my go-to taupe because it’s the perfect backdrop for sketching out spots with “Noir Ink” and filling them in with “Gilded” nail art pens.:

Start off by painting all of your nails with the taupe base color. Then take your black nail art pen and draw some irregularly shaped spots on the accent nail. Fill in some of those spots with gold for an extra touch of glam. Finish everything off with a layer of top coat, and you’re ready to put your feet up and let summer take a walk on the wild side!

For a perfect hue of a summer sky I suggest using ‘Sky’s the Limit’ gel polish and ‘Cloud Nine’ white for artistic touches.
Start with applying base coat then paint solid blue color as foundation. Once it is dry, take white nail art pen and draw cloud-like designs on top of it. Finish off with matte top coat for simple yet elegant statement of summer. This style is great inspiration for people who want natural but creative expression.

The timelessness of red polish cannot be denied — this deep crimson shine is the epitome of summer. The richness of color in this polish coupled with its glossy finish screams confidence, making it an amazing option for anyone looking to express themselves through their summer acrylic toe nails.

Begin by cleaning and buffing your nails. Apply base coat to protect your nails from staining. Brush on two coats of “Red Royalty,” curing each layer under a UV lamp. Seal the deal with “Glassy Gloss” for added shine. This design represents everything festive about summer — easy, trendy and effortlessly stylish.
Sheer Shimmer
Any summer outfit can be transformed into something magical with the use of a transparent polish that glistens. This low-profile yet captivating style goes well with vibrant whites or earthy shades and will make you look sophisticated and refined wherever you go during this season.
Marbled Elegance
Bring the artistry of natural stone to your toes with white marble nails that have gray and silver foil swirls. It is both simple and complex at once, making it a masterpiece you can wear.
- Gel polish in white
- Silver foil
- Gray nail polish
- Top coat for glossy finish and protection
To achieve this look, use the gel polish named “Pristine Porcelain” along with some “Stone Wash” gray polish. Add in delicate silver foils to create a marbled effect.
Begin by painting your nails with white gel polish like you would on any other canvas. After that, drop some gray onto them and use a fine brush to blend the colors together creating swirls throughout each nail. Next comes adding bits of metallic-looking silver foils here and there across all nails being sure not to put them too close together or too far apart from one another before finally sealing everything off under a coat of topcoat so that it stays looking fresh as if displayed within an art gallery.
Playful Patterns
The picture records a charming agreement of designs and hues — a lively gathering that incorporates blue panther print, polka spots, and white whirls on an impartial base. It is more creative to see that every toe has its own canvas telling a story of summer that is cute in the most innovative way possible.

- Gel polishes in various shades such as blue, white and neutral
- Dotting tools together with fine brushes
- Matte plus gloss topcoats for texture differentiation
For this look “Ocean Whimsy” gel polish gives the perfect blue and “Barely There” creates soft neutral canvas while “Polar White” works well for those clean details.
On each toe alternate between two different base colors. Use a fine brush if you want to draw intricate things like leopard patterns or helixes; but if it’s just about creating bigger circles then go ahead with dotting tools instead. Add life into every design by mixing up matte and glossy finishes which also provide interesting textures
Gilded Geometry
Try to think of opulence touching your feet. This design starts with a neutral color and has abstract shards of gold on top; it’s simultaneously motivating and refined. The gradient of the confetti dots adds a twist of playfulness to this otherwise sophisticated look.
- Gel polish in a neutral shade
- Gold leafing or gold foil
- Dotting tool
- Confetti polish in pink and white
“Desert Rose” sets a warm mood while “24K Magic” provides that rich touch. But, because we’re all about having fun here too, we can’t forget about ‘Confetti Cascade’ — which has different sized dots for added sprinkles!
Apply your base coat using the neutral shade. Then take some pieces of gold leafing and place them down onto the nail randomly like shattered glass would be. While the base is still wet, gently press the confetti dots into it so they become part of the design. Finish everything off with a top coat that lets your summer style mix natural elements with bright ones!
Cool Blue Confidence
Blue has never been cooler than when paired with bold leopard print. The contrast between calm blue and brash pattern is so great that it creates a fashionable and adorable look for the summer which is perfect for making waves.
- Gel polish in sky blue
- White and black nail art pens
- A top coat that makes shine brighter
For a base, use gel polish called “Serenity Sky” because it provides peace while still being lively; you will also need two different shades of nail art pen to make spots look wilder such as Jet & Snowcap.

- Sky blue and soft pink gel polish
- Nail decals or hand-painted flower art

To achieve pastel colors, use ‘baby’s breath’ blue with ‘petal pink,’ while detailed floral imagery can be created through the use of ‘garden delight’ nail decals.

Apply a matte top coat over the decals for a modern finish that will make this bouquet wearable in any setting. This design is perfect for anyone who wants to show off their artistic side while still looking natural
Vibrant Violet Speckles
A representation of summer nights can be seen on vibrant violet nails dusted with black glitter. The bright red color is both fun and mature, striking a perfect balance between adorable and stylish.
- Magenta gel polish
- Black glitter
- High-shine top coat
Base your design off of the following color scheme: “Vivid Violet” is your base, “Midnight Sparkle” is the glitter you are adding, and “Gloss Boss” is the topcoat for extra shine.
Following your base coat, apply two layers of “Vivid Violet.” While the second layer is still sticky, sprinkle some “Midnight Sparkle” over it and concentrate more towards the tips to achieve a gradient. Seal everything in with a layer “Gloss Boss” to make sure it lasts long as well as gives maximum shine. This look definitely makes a statement at any summertime event!
Luxe Leopard
Untamed elegance can be represented by luxurious leopard prints on a foundation that is gold and black. This audacious mix is all about expressing oneself loudly and unleashing the inner baddie.
- Gold gel polish

- Top coat to add shine
You can use “Golden Empress” for the base color and “Noir Precision” for the detailed spots of a leopard.
Paint a base gold then apply leopard spots with a nail art pen. Imperfection is key here; irregularity equates beauty. The design should be topped off with some top coat so it stays intact, they’ll become talk of town toes!

Black is the ultimate elegant color; it’s understated and classy. This design, which can be worn with any summer outfit, demonstrates classic beauty that never fails to impress.
- Gel polish in black

For the deepest possible darkness, opt for “Onyx Elegance” gel polish and finish it off with “Matte Majesty” to add an edgy vibe.
Apply two layers of “Onyx Elegance” after your base coat; cure each time. A matte topcoat changes everything — now you’ve got trendy nails that are easy as pie. This design works for anyone who loves minimalism with a punch.
Serene White Tip
A French tip painted white is the epitome of an elegant design that lies somewhere between classic and trendy; it’s soft-spoken chic for the summer.
- White color varnish
- Clear or soft pink base coat
- Top coat for a smooth finish
Choose “Pure Porcelain” for the tips, “Barely Blush” as your foundation, and “Shine Supreme” to seal everything off.
Apply base coat to achieve natural nails appearance. Next, carefully paint only the very ends of your nails white so that you get this nice clean edge on them. When it dries out completely, cover with topcoat — now both parts will merge together into one simple but refined whole look that is also glossy and neat at the same time
Playful Character Charm
Bright yellow nails with playful decals of characters do not conform to conventional standards of beauty because they are too lively and adorable. It is a design for having fun this summer and also expressing an affinity towards animation.
- Polish that is bright yellow
- Decals of cartoon figures

The color “Sunshine Fizz” is so beautiful as a yellow, but it becomes even better when used together with the “Character Craze” decal set which makes any fan happy.
For a more intense background, one should apply two layers of “Sunshine Fizz”. Then pick your favorite character stickers and stick them onto the selected nails followed by application of top coat to give shine and protect your work. If you love whimsical touches on toes covered in acrylics during summer -then this design will suit you well!

- Polish/striping tape or polish in pastel rainbow shades
- Soft purple polish
- Glitter accents
- Top coat for hold and shine
For a soft base, I use “Lavender Whisper,” striping tape is “Pastel Parade” for the rainbow effect, and “Festival Sparkle” for accents.
Paint your nails with a soft purple. Use striping tape or hand-paint pastel stripes to create a rainbow effect. Apply glitter accents sparingly for that magic touch. Finish the entire look off with a top coat that seals in the art while keeping it on trend for those summer nights out.

For the base, I used an art pen in “Sunburst,” which gives off a vibrant yellow hue. Then, I used “Espresso” and “Jet Black” art pens for the detail work.
Start by coating your nails with the yellow gel polish. Once it sets, take the nail art pens and create leopard spots all over them. Finish up with applying a clear top coat to give them glossiness & protect those safari-inspired nails.
