Recommended for you
Well, 2017 has officially begun, and let’s just say she’s not messing around. As beauty enthusiasts, it’s our job to find the craziest-yet-coolest trends for you (and us!) to try, and, by golly, we think we’ve found it. Cue aquarium nails. That’s right. This Ariel-approved trend is exactly what it sounds like — sans the fish, of course. With acrylic, baby oil (or water) and nail baubles, your nails will look just like the ’90s glitter-filled cups of your childhood (only a million times more fabulous). Take a dive into the wonderful world of awesomely OTT nail art with one of these funky renditions.
