7 2019 Music Festival Fashion & Beauty Trends That Are As Cool As They Are Wild | Color Gel Nail Polish

Anyone who’s ever made the switch from traditional polish to a gel manicure knows that gel is pretty damn magical. The polish stays shiny for weeks and you rarely get chips no matter how many dishes you hand wash or how hard you type on your keyboard. 

The Cleveland-based judge, Dan Polster, has been pushing for a settlement since he took over the federal cases a year ago, arguing that the parties involved should find ways to end this man-made crisis, rather than hold years of trials. A court order prohibits participants from discussing most aspects of settlement talks publicly.

Festival-goers at Holy Ship! proved that the space bun trend of 2018 is still alive and well in 2019. Fans were seen rocking the double buns in various ways, including with glitter and stickers on their center parts and held together with fun, colorful hair pieces and scrunchies. It has and always will be a look that’s out of this world.

Take your warm-weather fire-engine red polish down a few notches by swapping it with this rich, moody oxblood color by Tom Ford. 

This brand from Korean-born, New York-based nail artist Jin Soon Choi makes top notch cruelty free polish. It comes with a really small brush, which is great for precision when painting and producing neat-looking nails. They will stay looking immaculate too – this one came out on top for us for longevity. It only started showing signs of real wear after day seven and it didn’t chip. The finish on this shade is a metallic black that catches the light and it doesn’t have a strong smell when painting. Coming in a cool little rectangle bottle with a cap over the round screw top, all of Jin Soon’s polishes are 5-free so there’s a whole range of other colours to choose from too.

Every woman knows how painful it is to accidentally smudge your eyeliner after finally perfecting your cat eye, spill droplets of coffee on a light t-shirt, and worst of them all, walk around with chipped nail polish. I’ve spent hundreds of dollars each month on gel manicures to avoid chipped nails but as a result, my love affair with gel manicures left me with cracked, fragile nails.

It turns out that cutting your nails is the worst thing you could possibly do when you have a gel manicure — whether it’s to fix a hangnail or your nails are just starting to feel too long as your manicure grows out. "Trimming your nails will break the seal at the tip of your nail [created by the gel polish and UV light], making it more vulnerable to chipping, peeling, and snagging," says Amy Ling Lin, found of sundays studio in New York City. 

"Our skin eats too! I feel more and more consumers and companies are becoming aware that what we put ON and IN our bodies makes a difference. This will translate into innovations in the edible / holistic beauty world and adaptogenic skincare." — Nitsa Citrine, Lifestyle Guru

“Whether it’s dryness from traveling or allergy-related puffiness or dark circles from staying up too late on the latest Netflix binge, the skin under your eyes needs a lot of love. And since that skin also happens to be some of the thinnest, with far fewer oil glands than the rest of your face, ‘love’ really means moisture, and plenty of it. These jelly-like patches hold moisturizing hyaluronic acid right against the skin to make sure it gets the drink it needs, along with a dose of brightening niacinamide and depuffing gotu kola so you look wide awake and refreshed, whether you’re actually feeling that way or not.”—Lauren Hubbard

After enduring surgery and 10 months of physiotherapy, Miss du Plessis, who studied business science, was still struggling to walk.

But that’s only one step to effectively removing gel polish without totally destroying the health of your nails. 

Now, take those heart eyes of yours and peep the full line on Essie’s website for all the inspo you could ever want. And, when you’ve finally fallen in love, head to Target to cop these lovelies for yourself. You future mani’s so bright, it’s blinding.
