Blueberry milk nails: A dreamy manicure trend

What's the story

Blueberry milk nails, as the name implies, ride the milky nail trend and give it a nice blue twist. These nails have the same rich, creamy milk base as the milk bath manicure because they keep the overall appearance from seeming flat. Blueberry milk nails draw their inspiration from the serene and enchanting colors of a blueberry milkshake.

Understanding the milk bath manicure trend

Milk bath nail trend is a nail art technique inspired by the milky appearance of a milk bath. It involves creating a dreamy and ethereal look on your nails by using sheer or milky nail polish colors, often with the addition of delicate floral or other artistic elements. This trend results in nails that resemble submerged in a milky bath, showcasing soft, pastel hues.

What are blueberry nails?

This nail trend seamlessly combines opulence with a trendy, laid-back vibe, featuring a soft pale blue wash. The blueberry milk mani adds a flash of delicate color while keeping your manicure to a minimum, as opposed to bold, jarring colors. This features a creamy, pale blue hue that beautifully complements the vibrant and sweet tones of blueberries.

Process

How to apply 

Begin by cleaning your nails, then shaping them to your preference. Next, select your color. You can opt for a milky white base coat followed by a sheer blue topcoat, or take a bolder approach with a smooth light blue finish. Secure with a top coat. Enhance it with delicate swirls and white nail polish accents to emulate the creamy allure of milk.

Variety

Different variations of the trend

Blueberry milk nails are highly versatile. Try different patterns, shapes, and accents to make the design your own. Switch up the texture by opting for a matte top coat or go for a French manicure twist by painting a blueberry-colored base, and milkier blue for the tips. For a glossier touch, use a clear, glossy top coat. You could also create a gradient effect.
