CEO Barbie

@lolo.nailedit

If you’re spending the summer getting ahead in your career, try going for the CEO Barbie vibe with some sheer, subtly pink nails. The clean, ultra-shiny finish here proves that sometimes, less is more.

This candy-colored mani is exactly what a Barbie in the pages of a book or cartoon would want to wear. We love how carefully placed black and white lines take an otherwise simple gradient mani into pop art territory.
