If you’re on the lookout for a little bit of holiday nail inspiration, Kylie Jenner’s latest manicure might be just what you’re looking for. The youngest KarJenner sibling showed off her mermaid chrome nails during her latest vacation, which were done by celebrity manicurist and featured a subtle multi-coloured palette with a reflective chrome finish on the top.
For those of you keen to copy Kylie’s colourful mani, Zola even shared a tutorial on her Instagram showing exactly how to get the look. In the caption for her video the nail artist wrote: “We played with color and chrome orders and made every nail different using one coat of base color and add similar color effect chrome powder on top.”

The exact nail varnishes might not be available to us here in the UK, but you can still follow Zola’s tutorial to get similar results yourself.
To begin with she applied magnetic nail polish to each of Kylie’s nails in different shades and used a magnet to create the light-reflecting cat eye finish. If you have a UV lamp at home for DIY gel nails, you could use these SUPWEE Magnetic Reflective Cat Eye Gel Polish, which comes in a set of 6 Colors for and includes a magnetic stick to activate the polish.
If you don’t have an at-home gel nail set up, we also love Nails Inc.’s set of , which come in three darker metallic shades if you want a moodier take on Kylie’s mermaid nails – and are all currently half price at £5 each.

Kylie's manicurist Zola Ganzorigt showed how she created the multi-coloured look (Zola Ganzorigt/Instagram)Zola showed how, after applying the magnetic nail varnish in a variety of pastel shades, she then applied a chrome coating in similar tones to create the glazed finish. The easiest way to do this is to buy a chrome nail powder and gently buff it onto your painted nails once they’re dry, before finishing with a top coat.

If you need a little more control, Mylee’s range of Chrome Nail Pens, , are a great one-step solution to getting a mirror-like chrome finish.
