Matching your mani to your mask is the most 2020 trend ever
Just when we thought it couldn't get any wilder

2020 has certainly turned out to be an, um, interesting year... and it's not even over yet. Yikes. Let's just say that when we rang in the new decade 'wearing masks' wasn't necessarily top of our resolutions list.
But while protection is obviously our first priority amidst the madness, taking safety seriously doesn't mean we have to compromise on our beauty looks completely. And though we first thought enhancing our eye makeup was the only way to go, it turns out that was just the beginning...
Yes indeed, matching your manicure to your mask has officially taken its spot as the most creative trend we've seen yet. Peak 2020. Everyone from Hollywood manicurists to influencers and celebs are getting involved, too; in fact, Billie Eilish just rocked a coordinating khaki floral mani and mask combo at the Billboard Music Awards, and we seriously stan her safety-meets-style vibe.
So, whether you're keen to copy the colour, the pattern, the characters, or the accents (yes, some nail artists have even turned to cartoon animals and spiky studs), we've rounded up all the wild, wonderful and wacky matching mask-and-mani looks gracing our Insta feeds. You're welcome (and sorry).
