While mostly what I do on National Coffee Day is allow myself to enjoy a few extra cups of coffee, I came across these fun coffee inspired nails and wanted to share them with you in case you’re inspired to try something new. The design looks easy enough to do for even a beginner.

Coffee Inspired Nails for National Coffee Day

To celebrate National Coffee Day Sally Hansen Global Color Ambassador, Madeline Poole, created a nail look inspired by java.  For the nail look, Madeline used Sally Hansen Miracle Gel in Birthday Suit and Totem-ly Yours to create a coffee bean mani.

Step 1

Start by applying 2 coats of Sally Hansen Miracle Gel in Birthday Suit to all the nails

Step 2

Using a striping brush, outline a semi-circle shape on the pinky nail using the color Sally Hansen Miracle Gel in Totem-ly Yours. The shape should resemble the shape of a coffee bean – oblong and round.

Step 3

Fill in this semi-circle and repeat this process in a flip-flopping manner down the nails. The feel should be organic and random in placement.

Step 4

After painting the coffee bean outlines. Allow the nails to dry a few minutes and then apply one coat of Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Top Coat.
