These Nail Products Won Her Campus’s 2024 College Beauty Awards
Beauty is a great form of self-expression — through interesting outfits, bright makeup looks, and new hairstyles, we present ourselves to the world. Your nails are a key part of this expression, too. Want to get in the mood for Halloween? You can craft a spooky vibe with nail art. Looking for something glamorous? Choose a new color or trend that’ll coordinate with your outfits. When looking to make a statement and express your identity, start with your nails.
Nail art can be really hard to get right when you’re DIYing it at home. I mean, we’ve all been there: laboring for hours to get that perfect design only for it to come out smudged, or nothing like your inspo pic. You might feel like giving up on your nails, but that’s where this list comes in. These nail products were selected by Her Campus from thousands of readers’ recommendations and crowned the winners of this year’s College Beauty Awards. These polishes and press-ons are perfect for even the most inexperienced nail artists. And if you’re part of the lucky few who can easily draw spotless patterns and designs, I’m certain these products will become staples in your nail arsenal. No matter your level of expertise, you’ll be sure to love these trendy and gorgeous products!
