Are you looking for some trendy Y2K nails to try out? If so, you’ve come to the right post!
What is the Y2k Aesthetic?
The Y2k aesthetic has been coming back in full force over the last year! It’s based on pop culture from the end of the 90s to the early 2000s. Think yin yangs, chunky jewelry, bright colors, and happy faces when it comes to nail art.
Y2K is such a fun aesthetic to try out, especially during the summer time! There’s so many designs you can recreate that capture the essence of the 90s.
Whether I’m going to a salon or doing them myself, it’s so fun to get inspiration! I wanted to put together a collection of my favorite designs, so you can figure out what style you want to try! Below you will find everything from french tips to intricate designs!
A lot of these looks can easily be recreated at home! If you’re wanting to try out a matte look, I recommend getting this matte nail polish:
To be able to hand draw on flowers, we recommend these nail art brushes. They are incredibly fine, and help draw out really intricate details:
