The Allure of Citrus Colours
Citrus-inspired colours are popular not just for their brightness but also for the happiness they evoke.

For instance, studies show that colours influence mood; yellow can boost happiness levels by up to 10%. By painting your nails in these cheerful hues, you're not just making a style choice; you’re expressing your 'lemon zest' for life with our eco-friendly nail polish!
Imagine wearing a bright citrus nail polish while attending a beach barbecue or enjoying a picnic in the park. These vibrant colours elevate any summer outfit and radiate summer excitement.

Citrus green is versatile enough to pair well with floral nail designs or geometric patterns.
Elevating Your Citrus Nails
To showcase your vibrant citrus nails effectively, think about adding fun nail art or accessories that embody summer. Consider little fruit designs, or playful geometric shapes. For example, use a thin nail art brush to paint tiny oranges or lemons over a neutral base, creating a fun contrast to your citrus shades. Apply one of our plastic free glitter shades as a top coat to give your nails a shimmery finish.
Don’t forget the magic of a top coat! It seals your polish and adds brilliant shine, ensuring that your nails look stunning as you enjoy summer activities.
Nail Care Tips
Summer heat can strain your nails. Keep them looking fresh by regularly hydrating with our award-winning cuticle oil or lemon infused cuticle balm and using a quality nail strengthener.
Additionally, remember to apply sunscreen to your hands. Protecting your nails from UV rays is crucial for maintaining their beauty. After all, well-maintained nails deserve your care and attention!
