If, like me, you're obsessed with nail trends, then you'll know that two sheer nail manicures are never the same. As a beauty editor, I've become obsessed with finding the perfect sheer nail polishes to recreate a sheer milky manicure. So, when I spotted silk veil nails doing the rounds on my feeds, I knew this was another sheer nail polish trend I needed to try first-hand.
What Are Silk Veil Nails?
Coined by celebrity nail tech Iram Shelton, silk veil nails feature a feature of sheer white polish that instantly makes your hands look naturally neat and healthy. They're much like the milky manicures we've seen of late, but with a far sheerer finish that makes your hands look polished and elevated. As their name suggests, they make a great option for brides you are looking for wedding nail designs but want something timeless, minimalist and low-key for their manicure.
Silk Veil Nail Ideas
How beautiful is this manicure? I love it paired with an almond nail shape.
I love how this milky-jelly finish makes the nails look healthy and effortlessly polished.
This is a nail look that always looks chic on all nail lengths, but particularly so on short nails.
I love the subtle touch of sparkle that gives a pretty, shimmering finish to this sheer white manicure look.
