While most shows opted for simple nude manicures, some shows got more creative with either nail art or bolder colors, such as canary yellow (Tequila Sunrise), and even deep charcoal (Black Like My Soul).
Versakini’s design was a light beige base (Kitten’s Paw) with an off-centered neon pink swoop at the base of the nail.
