Missing summertime? Bring out your inner beach babe (no matter what the month because we DGAF), by sporting summery pastel gradient ombre nails that bring back our favorite memories (like swimming in the ocean and summer popsicles).

When we edit our photos on Insta (because girl, we all do), contrast is usually one of the first things we crank up to get those pops of color and vibrancy. Since we can't edit our nails IRL (sad face), pairing a black nail polish with silver and turquoise glitter polish is one option. Paint on your silver glitter first, going light as you near your cuticle line. Then use your turquoise glitter polish and lightly overlap the silver in the middle and go heavy on the tips. And BAM — gorgeous glittery ombre nails.

Two of our favorite things in one: matte nails and an ombre design. What more do you need for ombre nails' special effects?
