It feels like there is no struggle in the world that is realer than picking a color in the nail shop, but the latest trend in the nail world is sure to solve your claw-related conundrum and give you a dose of flair that you didn't know you were missing. Much like rainbow nails, the Skittles nail trend can be recreated by picking 5-10 polishes for each individual finger, except this time you'll pick a Skittles-inspired theme (or one that's monochromatic), giving you an aesthetically-pleasing manicure that champions indecision.
While this colorful creation may scare my fellow neutral nail polish lovers, never fear, you can use any color in the rainbow, even nude. This simple trend is perfect on its own, but ladies who are looking for a little extra edge should consider leaving room on one finger on each hand for a pop of color, Swarovski crystals, and glitter. To achieve this look, make sure to choose different hues of the same color, but depending on your style, you can get as crazy as you want, sis.
We've taken the liberty of rounding up some major nail inspo that will have you ready to book your next mani-pedi ASAP:
