Chrome nails are the hottest trend of 2022. Did HBO Max’s hit TV Show Euphoria kick off this trend?

The popular tv show dominated the game in beauty trends with season one makeup looks, but season two brought even more hype around nail art. The phenomenal nail designs created by Euphoria nail artist, Natalie Minerva caused a huge media frenzy, inspiring everyone to recreate the looks.
