Finals time is approaching and what better way to relax than painting your nails or going to the salon and getting them done? Or should I say, better way to procrastinate? Single colored nails can get a little repetitive so here are some ways to give your nails that little extra flavor this season: 

Subtle half moon manicures: Pick contrasting colors for this chic and easy to wear look!

Matte black: or matte anything! There’s a matte topcoat that you can easily purchase, and it’ll turn your glossy nails to this matte texture!

Matte and gloss: not totally convinced on the matte color? Ease it in with a gloss tip for some extra dimension. 

Single dot: Add a little stud to your manicure to get a simple-yet-chic look!

Reverse French manicure: Bored with your French manicures? Flip it around for an edgier style!

Have some fun with your nails and good luck with finals!
