Get the fruit nail look at home

French cherry nails

An on-trend yellow colourful French tip and micro-cherries? I know I can always rely on Mateja Novakovic to deliver. Sign me up for this design, stat.

The French tip on these cherry nails makes the whole vibe chic and wearable. You can't help but smile when you look at them.

This is the how-to guide we needed. It looks quite simple right?

Lemon nails

The way that India Francesca Allen has incorporated a subtle lemon design with a super-polished sheer manicure is, in my opinion, simply perfect.

The combination of this artistic citrus design and the chic micro-French tips are all that's needed to keep the summer vibes alive.

Fruit salad

Hailey Bieber's farmer's market manicure has really sent waves through the nail space this season, and I can totally see why. The mix of fruit and veg micro-accents is the sort of fun but chic manicure I want in on.

Can't decide on just one fruit design? If Y2K mix & match nails are back, this is the way to do them.

Dopamine dressing has been all the rage, but this fruit salad mani proves that dopamine nails are a thing, too.

Tomato nails

You can always rely on nail artist extraordinaire, Betina Goldstein, to deliver the goods. This is one way to really embrace the fruit nail trend. 

Orange nails

This glazed-donut finish combined with a citrus, fruity accent is making my mouth water.

Strawberry nails

While Hailey Bieber is talking all things strawberry girl make-up, her go-to manicurist shows how to go full out with strawberry nails.

Avocado nails

The green nail look isn't going anywhere, and I'm not mad about it. In fact, this avocado design is top of my to-try list.

Watermelon nails

The hot-pink flower accents mixed in with this watermelon design is just *chefs kiss*.

Chilli Peppers

We might not have got the hot weather we wanted this summer, but this manicure is certainly bringing the heat.
