Feminine pink talons with glittery touches: <\/strong>For a refreshing and ladylike manicure, try painting your nails with a coat of confectionery pink polish. Add a clear topcoat to allow your fingertips to shine, and accessorize one fingernail with white lace inspired nail art. To bring a sparkly effect to the mani, use a glittery pink nail lacquer on a separate finger as a statement look.<\/p>\n

\"SERENITY<\/a><\/p>\n

Use Essie\u2019s cornflower blue Bikini So Teeny shade to paint the moons of your nails, and finish off the rest of the nail with a coat of Essie\u2019s creamy pale pink Fiji shade.<\/p>\n
