Instagram is brimming with ideas, for the perfect DIY Manicure so Sally hansen have teamed up with Professional Nail Manicurist, Sarah Gaynor, to bring you some of the perfect styles and trends for Spring 2023.

One of the trending nails for 2023 is the Milky Manicure, this manicure type puts more of an emphasis on nail health than nail art! With a sheer polish like this, the focus is all on moisturized cuticles and a clean shape, so the perfect time to use a nail care product like Sally Hansen 7in1 Complete Care (RRP €10.99/£10.95)before applying your nail colour.

Get the Look with Sally Hansen Good. Kind. Pure. in White Tea (RRP €10.99/£8.99) or Miracle Gel in Out of this Pearl (RRP €9.99/£11.99). 

Good Kind Pure, the revolutionary new line of nail products is formulated with plant-based, 100% vegan ingredients including marine algae and sustainable bamboo, as well as a plant-based brush which is optimised to work with the new formula, for beautiful colour and shine without compromise.

April

While 2022 was all about the nude classic manicure, 2023 is all about the joy of colour. For a simple take on this fun trend, we suggest painting one accent nail on each hand in a bold, bright hue. Sarah Gaynor, says, “Rainbow tips are a noticeable favourite this year, with lilac and cool blue tones are going to be a huge trend for the year ahead.” Keep the rest of the nails pared back in a muted tone to create contrast. If you’re a dab hand with nail art, get arty and play around with bold painterly strokes or bright, fun French tips. Our favourite shades for this look?

Try Good Kind Pure in Crystal Blue (RRP €10.99/£8.99) or Insta-Dri in Heather Hustle (RRP €6.99/£4.99).

 Insta-Dri dries in 60 seconds and requires just a single step, and is formulated with a base and top coat for extended wear and full-coverage, streak-free shine.
