As the official nail color sponsor of Mercedes-Benz Fashion week, we'd expect nothing less than cutting edge, runway-worthy polish from Maybelline. And that's exactly what they're serving up this July with Polka Dots. It's a brightly colored polished laced with black and white beads that dry into perfect round dots -- no steady hands or painful precision required.
Sticking with nail polishes inspired by our favorite runway trends comes The Holographics collection. The polish delves into the world of metallics, creating a super shiny polish with color-morphing, metallic pearls that makes for different shades in every light.
Looking for an affordable alternative to pricy speckled polishes? Then you'll want to check out Hard Candy's Candy Sprinkles Nail Collection. It offers pretty pastel colors with the edgy, cracked speckle trend. This polish looks so great on, you'd never guess the bottle only cost four bucks.
Inspired by sweet summer cocktails, the limited edition CoverGirl Outlast Stay Brilliant Glosstinis are the perfect pop of color to add to your summer beauty routine. These slimmed-down mini bottles come in vibrant shades all named after your favorite drinks -- Bahama Mama, Sangria -- and look fabulous whether you're lounging by the pool or indulging in your favorite fruity concoction from a hunky, square-jawed bartender named Todd. Be sure to look out for these nail-tasty Glosstinis coming in July.
Designed with bright summer colors in mind, these new colors from Essie are perfect for any outing, whether you're out enjoying the ocean or just sipping margs by the pool. Be sure to look out for this nautical collection coming this June.
When it's 107 degrees, there's only so much a person can do to look cute. Top of the short list: having a cute manicure in a right-this-very-moment color. The effect pulls together all the frump -- turns frizzy bed head into sexy volume, poofs oily skin into a dewy glow.
