Set to start selling in June, the Ruffian & MAC nails offer buyers a press-on style with tons of attitude.
Sharply cut, much like a claw, these nails are daring and very provocative. Sure to stand out no matter where they’re worn, wearers will get more than a few double takes when sporting this frisky look. Inspired by celebrities like Lana Del Ray, who have worn the claw-like look, this is an animal-inspired style more concerned with appearance than functionality. The collaboration between high-profile cosmetic companies and fashion labels seems to be a natural mix, and it’s unsurprising that the results are so cutting-edge.
Daring, bold and bright, these press-on talons are an easy way to integrate edginess into one’s look.
