The two cooler tones pair beautifully together, while the nude base really lets the color combo shine.

The latter adds an almost whimsical element, while the former gives the look a minimalistic effect.

Pair a traditional periwinkle shade with two other shades of blue (orpurple) to create your accent nails.

This is what the manicure would look like if you went all-in on the design for every nail.

Somehow, it all comes together harmoniously for one seriously cool mani.

Duo-Chrome Effect

You don’t need nail art to make a statement.

Instead, layer multiple chrome polishes with different-sized particles for an ultra-cool, shimmery effect.

We love this periwinkle tone, which features subtle shimmer in the middle and bigger sparkles around the border.
