Hot Tips

By Audrey Kim

Summer is here in full force, and what better way to celebrate than with some bright nail polish? Candy-colored nails are perfect for the whimsical essence of summer. Fun, flirty and fashionable at the same time, showing off bubblegum blue nails garners attention everywhere we go. When else can you get away with blueberry fingertips if not during the summer? For those who are not as keen to cause a scene, the spectrum of summer nail color is limitless.

The Orly line, which includes base and top coats, strengtheners, quick-dry agents, and cuticle care products, is also the originator of the award-winning Gripper Cap, which makes application easier than ever!
