Want Anne Hathaway’s Coconut Water Nails? Don’t Just Look For Perfect Shade, Also Prioritise Nail Health

No, the ‘Odyssey’ star was not seen sipping on a coconut, but she appeared at The End Of Oak Street premiere in California, sporting ‘coconut water’ nails. This look was created by celebrity nail technician Tom Bachik. It featured short, round fingertips with a sheer, creamy base, which ultimately created an elegant, ethereal look.

As per Elle Magazine, the high-shine finish, the preparation and attention to nail health, and the eye-catching colour combination are all crucial to replicating it.

You need to trim your cuticles and make the nail surface smooth as the sheer finish won’t disguise imperfections.

According to Jack Harper, Mylee brand ambassador, before applying one or two thin applications of a transparent gel colour, apply a base coat. This will enable your natural nail to show through while creating a gentle wave of colour. After that, apply a high-gloss top coat to give the nails a "coconut water" appearance that is watery and reflects light.

Choose softer shades like pink and pastel tones rather than plain white. You can also choose shades such as soft ivory, vanilla, and suggested Harper.

Maintenance is essential to ensure nail health and longevity because this is a natural-looking manicure where your nails are frequently visible underneath

Using the right base is key to maintaining this manicure. If you're doing your nails at home, you want to look for something with added ingredients to boost nail health and strength.

Being exposed to the weather can make your nails brittle. Apply good cuticle oil to keep nails soft and hydrated.
