Everything You Need To Know About The Korean Diamond Nails Trend

If bling is your thing, then be sure to try out the diamond nails trend. Invented by manicurist maven Park Eunkyung as a more bold version of the shattered glass look that took the internet by storm, diamond nails give you a futuristic, shiny effect that can be spotted from a mile away. Created with holographic foils, according to Teen Vogue, this style stays true to its name by resembling the unmistakable reflection of a diamond. Although Park refuses to give away her secrets when it comes to her exact techniques of crafting her projects, Refinery29 speculates that there's a cut-and-glue process involved when it comes to the diamond nail look. If you want to replicate an amateur (but still super cool) diamond nail trend yourself at home, be sure to grab holographic lacquer and a reliable, flake finish topcoat.

"I am the type of person who really focuses on the steps rather than the result," Eunkyung told Allure, her attention to detail surely paying off. With her talent and hard work, diamond nails are one of her most memorable projects yet.
