Smiley face nails are curing our seasonal depression

Here’s how to nail the happy-making trend
There is no icon of happiness quite like the quintessential smiley face symbol. Typically depicted in a cheery shade of yellow, the feel-good seal of approval has been stickered over a veritable wealth of knick-knacks over the years as well as a few car bumpers to boot.

Whether you’re in need of a quick pick-me-up or you can’t go past an iconographic mani, here are nine smiley face-inspired nail looks to have at the ready when you hit up your nail tech.









These nails may be all smiles but some trends are serious business. Up your nail game with the glow-in-the-dark nail trend.
