Neon is the trend that just won’t die. From dresses to activewear, fluorescent colors are (still) having their moment. And the trend even extends to our nails.
Neon nails come in all forms: tie-dye, neutral tips, ombre, etc. Even matte versions are proving popular as more and more people steer clear of high-shine manicures. Check out the slideshow above for some neon nail inspo via Instagram and recent runways. Feel free to rock them while wearing your favorite highlighter-colored outfit.
Cheerful neon nails are the most influencer-approved beauty trend
