November is officially here and we’re fully embracing fall vibes in all their glory with scented candles, cozy blankets and, of course, pumpkin spice lattes. No surprise, but we’re not alone in feeling festive; celebrity manicurist Tom Bachik just dropped a “pumpkin spice mani” tutorial that’s perfectly on-trend, refreshingly simple (no hours-long salon session required) and overall, worth screenshotting for your next nail appointment.
Orange nails have been trending for a while now; we called it “the new neutral” back in September and it’s only become more popular as we head into the season. Chrome nails, too, have cemented their place as one of the top celebrity-approved looks of the moment. So, combining the two? It’s a recipe for nail perfection. To achieve the look, Bachik explained in his post that he used Mia Secret Gelux in Neon Orange ($13) as the base, topped it with Mia Secret Iridescent Chrome Powder in 104 ($7) and sealed it all with the brand’s Glass Finish Gel ($13).
If gel isn’t your go-to for an at-home mani, you’re in luck. This look’s simplicity makes it easy to achieve with a lookalike neon orange polish and a chrome topper—no curing required. But for the easiest route of all, we say leave it to the pros. Just show them a photo of the look and let the pros handle it from there.
