Naked nails continue to have their moment, with all-but-bare manicures showing up on every imaginable red carpet. And with summer on the horizon, naked nails look a little different than winter and spring naked nails, especially if you consider your manicure an extension of your skin, like Jennifer Lopez currently seems to.
I don’t know about you, but summer skin just hits different. It’s a different kind of radiance. It’s faux-sun-kissed (please, for the love of all things holy, choose self-tanner over laying out if you’re going for a tanned look), glowing from a heaping helping of sunscreen, and perhaps misted in a light layer of body shimmer. Can you think of a more summery look? And with the help of nail artist Tom Bachik, J. Lo extended that vibe to her nails.
Bachik posted a closeup of Lopez in which she’s holding up her hand to her face (glam makeup look and all) showing off a wonderfully warm version of naked nails. The oval shape is long but not too long, with a sheer, slightly tan polish topped off with a hint of shimmer — sheer enough that you can see the slight contrast of Lopez’s tips.
But what’s wild is that, even though this summer-skin version of a naked manicure looks like it’s been done on Lopez’s natural nails, they’re actually not her nails.
