Name a more iconic summer duo than a rooftop bar and an ice-cold Aperol Spritz… We’ll wait.

Perfectly timed for our next European beachside vacay, the beauty world has coined a new manicure trend, paying homage to the favourable and delicious Aperol Spritz.

Bold neon orange is also acceptable

Our go-to nail guru and H!Fashion beauty mogul Lydia Mormen is a huge fan of the new aesthetic, especially for those of us with a holiday booked. "Nothing screams summer to me more than an Aperol in the sunshine so I'd say this is the perfect holiday mani. It makes for a fun alternative to the usual vacay whites and corals that people usually opt for, and the neon orange really sparks joy. Your holiday nails are a great chance to try something new and fun and these will be going straight on my inspo list - now I just need to book the holiday!"

A subtle ombre effect is perfect for those who don't love a bold mani

Technically the the rules for the new mani aesthetic are barely nonexistent with the one and only rule being that they have to include a shade of orange. Whether you’re an ombre girly, a French tip fan or a classic block-coloured babe, the Aperol Spritz Nail options are quite literally endless.

How to elevate Aperol Spritz nails? 

A few months ago both Hailey Bieber and Kylie Jenner made a strong case for hand-painted mini motifs on their nails, a cute way to add personality that can also be easily adapted to suit your style, including your love for a certain orange fizzy beverage.

This summer is all about having cute nails

As we all know, an Aperol Spritz isn’t complete without a chunky slice of orange, another cute motif which can be hand-painted onto a select few nails or all of them.
