New nail trend alert, people!
Nail art trends tend to move and change very quickly and unexpectedly. From French tips to negative space – fads come in fast and furious. But the latest manicure trend has us scratching our heads – dew drop nails.
What Is It?
Dew drop nails are part of the ongoing 3D manicure craze, which was influenced by Korean and Japanese manicure techniques. You may wear them however you like; browse social media to see the eye-catching styles – mermaid vibes, minimalist chic interpretations, fairycore designs, and even Y2K-inspired ideas. You may switch the style from charming to wacky in a matter of seconds by adjusting the base colour and how the tiny droplets are applied.
Despite how authentic the “droplet” manicure appears to be, the glossy beads that appear to be drops of water on the nails are actually globs of transparent nail paint or firm gel that have been placed in a way that gives your nails a 3D feel.
How To Do It
Lovin’ this trend? Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to “nail” it!

Step 1: First, give yourself a basic manicure. To avoid having the entire picture ruined, remove the previous coating and treat the cuticles. Shape the nails into the required form.
Step 2: Apply a layer of basic polish to the nails. The primary coating will be laid gently and smoothly.
Step 3: Apply two layers of the primary coating. Applying the second layer should be done after the first layer has dried.
Step 4: Start making the droplets on the nails in a random pattern after dipping the dotting tool into the top polish. You can choose the size and shape of them. Small and large droplets should be alternated for the pattern to look natural. Making perfectly round drops and even drips is not necessary, because flowing drops will appear more authentic. When you’re done, dry the single nail in the lamp to give the drips more volume and smoothness.
