There’s a unique satisfaction that comes from coordinating your nails with your outfit, akin to fashion’s version of finding your perfect match. Sydney Sweeney recently showcased this harmony at the Hollywood Beauty Awards held on April 6.
The Euphoria actress drew inspiration from her accessories, specifically a striking corset crocodile skin belt and corset, which influenced her bold manicure choice. The outcome was a stunning set of espresso brown nails flaunting an animal print design that complemented her overall appearance flawlessly.
While Sweeney typically opts for a more minimalist beauty approach—often enhancing her features with a soft smoky eye or feline eyeliner—this occasion saw her embrace more daring beauty choices. Her edgy nail design seamlessly tied her entire outfit together, highlighting her versatility.
Sydney Sweeney’s Crocodile-Inspired Nails
Her eye-catching nails were crafted by renowned manicurist Zola Ganzorigt, incorporating one of the season’s prominent trends: maximalist prints infused with a wild flair. This spring, there’s a noticeable shift towards personalized and playful nail art, and Sweeney’s crocodile-inspired design exemplifies this shift perfectly.
For this special evening, Sweeney opted for an impressive crocodile effect achieved through a blooming gel technique.
This innovative method utilizes a gel polish base that enables colors to spread and “bloom” across the nail, creating an effect reminiscent of reptilian skin patterns.
Beyond her magnificent nails, Sweeney also exuded elegance with her makeup, sporting a mocha rose lip color. She enhanced her look further with a gentle sweep of light brown on her eyelids and a subtle eyeliner look, which seemed to be created using eyeshadow for a soft finish.
Nail Trends for Spring
Spring presents an excellent opportunity to explore new colors and patterns for your nails.
Experts affirm that playful nail designs are trending this year, with blooming gel and mocha mousse details emerging as key elements, aligning with Sweeney’s chic manicure that embraces two of the most talked-about trends of the season.
“Blooming gel was very popular during the summer and fall of 2024, and it’s making a comeback this spring, which I personally adore,” stated manicurist and Aprés Gel-X specialist Sharon Ladokun in a previous interview with Bustle.
So, whether you’re contemplating your next nail color, take this as a cue to embrace more creativity rather than less. Bold choices should be celebrated!
