Unless you've cut all ties with civilization, you know that Starbucks sent the internet into a tizzy when they added a Unicorn Frappuccino to the menu. A swirl of majestic, Instagram-worthy colors, the frappe is now inspiring nail artists, which means you can get in on the fun sans a sugar-induced diabetic coma. And we're here for that.
It was nail artist @thenailhub who first posted a shot of the Starbucks-inspired mani to her Instagram. To create the whirls of majestic colors, the artist hand-painted pink, purple, and blue clouds on the nails with touches of glitter. And as the ultimate accent, one nail was emblazoned with an illustration of the Frappuccino topped with a green straw, whipped cream, and the Starbucks logo for good measure.

Since then, a slew of other manicurists have tapped into the trippy aesthetic. So if you're looking to take your unicorn content to the next level, assume T-Rex-Hands-selfie position with one of these dreamy interpretations.
