Tips for Making Short Easter Nails Last

Pastel shades can look streaky in one coat, so build them up in two or three thin layers and finish with a glossy top coat for a smooth, glassy result. Fine details like bunny whiskers and chick faces sit on the surface of the nail, so refresh your top coat every few days and wear gloves for washing-up — warm soapy water dulls both the colour and the art faster than anything.

From a single tiny bunny on a dusty pink nail to a full set of speckled mini eggs, short Easter nails can be as quiet or as joyful as you like. Pick your favourite, book the appointment, and let your nails join the egg hunt this year.
