Celebrity smoothie culture has invaded our beauty and skincare routines, from viral Hailey Bieber and Sabrina Carpenter Erewhon concoctions to classic, fan-favorite Jamba recipes. Instead of just sipping some, why not channel that refreshingly fruit-astic energy straight onto your fingertips? Blending vibrant shades and designs makes your nails look livelier and all set for the heat! Find out which mouth-watering set deserves a spot on your summer mood board. 1. Fruit Jelly View this post on Instagram A post shared by iGel Beauty (@igelbeauty) Our LB Jelly Gel Collection knows how to hit all the right spots. These gelatinous 3D textures in translucent apple green, citrus orange, watermelon pink, bright yellow, and deep plum make this set look as if each nail tip was plucked straight from a vintage fruit bowl. It is the best conversation starter for anyone obsessed with high-shine, dimensional nail art. 2. Choco Berries View this post on Instagram A post shared by iGel Beauty (@igelbeauty) Come, we’re reaching for a gourmet fondue treat. Ripe strawberries paired with rich cocoa swirls deliver a decadent chocolate fountain-dipped fantasy. The sharp contrast of Dip & Dap - DD032 Candy Apple balances the bright summertime energy of 09 Bumble Bee and 16 Elegant Emerald from the Line Art Gel Collection. 3. Lemon Lavender View this post on Instagram A post shared by iGel Beauty (@igelbeauty) Tart, floral, and a little romantic. If you’ve never tried an iced lavender lemonade, you’re missing out! Combining the calming pastel purple tone of Rosé - R019 Royally Royal and the sunny LB Jelly Gel - JG06 Champagne is so unexpectedly good, offering a gingham-inspired, cottagecore spin on traditional neon shades. 4. Berry Chocolatey View this post on Instagram A post shared by iGel Beauty (@igelbeauty) Guess who’s a chocoholic through and through. 🤭 Looking like a love at first bite–I mean sight, this matte chocolate brown (Dip & Dap - DD300 Chocolate Fix) serves as the cozy backdrop for raised 3D strawberries (LB Jelly Gel - JG04 Deep Pink) and glossy cocoa drops. The velvety texture creates a playful visual surprise, making the set interestingly beautiful. 5. Juicy Fruit View this post on Instagram A post shared by iGel Beauty (@igelbeauty) Name a more iconic duo than cat eye and jelly nails. Who would have thought these finishes would complement each other? Capturing a slice of artistry, the iGel Cat Eye Multi-Angle Pro Magnet helped bring out the glamorous metallic pieces of 3D Cat Eye Gel - CE06 Halicarnassus, with LB Jelly Gel Color - JG09 Purple Amethyst bringing glam on top. 6. Purple Punch View this post on Instagram A post shared by iGel Beauty (@igelbeauty) Summer in every shade of purple; this mani just proved that dark berry tones belong in warm weather too. Spun over a dreamy Dip & Dap - DD001 Baby Powder base, the LB Blossom Gel works its magic to swirl Dip & Dap - DD218 What’s Your Pur-Pose? into liquid marble, topped off with an almost-indigo LB Jelly Gel - JG17 Violet for the charming blackberries. Fruit nails give us a deliciously sweet escape, embracing hyper-realistic textures and bold 3D charms.
