Quiet luxury nails

The your-nails-but-better end of the catalogue: milk baths, sheer crèmes, soft washes and bare tips, in shades barely a step from the nail underneath. What makes them look expensive is entirely prep — cuticles pushed back, the free edge shaped evenly, two thin coats rather than one thick one — because there is no pattern here to hide behind. Anything faintly warm reads as skin rather than polish, so they suit short nails better than long ones.
