YSL Beauty's watercolor manicure collection celebrates sheer and natural tones. The range is semi-transparent and comes in four vibrant shades including Rouge Wet, Rose Splash, Orange Drop and Fuchsia Rain. Rather than being solid and bold, these watercolor manicure products are more understated and perfect for summer.
Much like the season's understated makeup looks, these nail products are refined and effortlessly elegant. YSL's watercolor manicure range is easy to apply and is less messy than traditional polishes. Its products will add a hint of color to one's nails and feature a long-wear formula that won't chip.
This nail polish collection is not only perfect for summer wear but will also appeal to beauty fans who are likely to sport nude or natural manicures.
