PAINTED in RAIN

From misty chromes to rain-drenched ombrés and cloud-kissed florals, this edit delivers much-needed inspiration for your nails this season.

When the skies turn grey and everything feels a little muted, a subtle pop of colour can make all the difference. Monsoon beauty isn’t about bold brights, it’s about soft, soothing tones that mirror the season while lifting your mood. Think foggy blues, misty greys, and delicate details that feel fresh and effortless. These nail designs prove that even the smallest touch of colour can brighten a rainy day and add a refined, stylish edge to your monsoon look.
