These Solar Eclipse Nails are Total-ly Bae

If you weren’t in the US when the recent total solar eclipse took place, then you would’ve missed out on a majestic sight.

Get in on the conversation anyway, and wear articulations of the beautiful phenomenon on your very own nail canvases!

Minimalistic nails are on trend. Pay tribute to the fuss-free look and to mother nature with this simple, yet impactful art.
