She tied the knot at The Castle Hill Inn in Newport, Rhode Island, on August 8, and even over a week later, the content just keeps coming in the form of photos and videos galore. Among the posts are several from members of her glam squad, including celebrity manicurist Julie Kandalec (aka @julieknailsnyc), who took to Instagram to reveal that she was behind the social media influencer\u2019s wedding manicure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">For the big day, the content creator and her manicurist went with a soft, milky pink-nude: sheer, glossy and just barely-there, in a rounded almond shape. Kandalec did the big reveal in an Instagram carousel, captioning it, \u201cThe perfect wedding mani \u00e0 la @essie for @acquired.style,\u201d tagging the rest of Pheloung\u2019s glam squad and crediting herself for the nails. She revealed she used Essie Gel Couture Nail Polish ($13) in the shade Sheer Fantasy, which the brand describes as a \u201clongwear, graceful sheer-pink.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<figure class=\"my-8 mx-auto max-w-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.sanity.io\/images\/0vv8moc6\/newbeauty\/1835c84c591e7b0587db3d243ae00ae5fba66467-1200x1200.jpg?w=1200&amp;auto=format&amp;q=70\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" class=\"h-auto w-full rounded\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><figcaption class=\"mt-2 text-center text-sm italic text-gray-500\">Pheloung\u2019s wedding day manicure using Essie Gel Couture in Sheer Fantasy. (Photo\/Julie Kandalec)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">The shade fits perfectly into the \u201cyour-nails-but-better\u201d trend that\u2019s been popular for bridal manicures (and beyond) this year. As nail artist and founder of Slynko Beauty Bloom Studio Maryna Slynko told NewBeauty, \u201cMilky pink remains one of the most versatile shades. I love that it enhances the natural look of the nails and always feels clean, polished and elegant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">While Kandalec layered Sheer Fantasy for a milkier, less sheer finish, the polish can also be worn thinner (true to its name). Essie\u2019s own Instagram shows it applied lighter, leaving a glossy, barely-there flush. The brand calls that version a \u201cmilky rose sugar manicure,\u201d proof this one polish can go from full bridal glam to your everyday no-makeup mani in no time.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"shop-essie-sheer-fantasy-nail-polish\" class=\"font-canela mb-4 mt-8 text-2xl font-light leading-tight text-black md:text-3xl\">Shop Essie Sheer Fantasy Nail Polish<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brigette Pheloung (also known as @acquired.style on her [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2699,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[55],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2698"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2698\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
