Nail Art Gets Cheesy


Fromage fans have come up with some seriously creative ways of expressing their love for cheese. From artists who were inspired by this moldy muse, to mongers who have permanently inked themselves with cheese tattoos, dedicated turophiles will go to great lengths to show off their favorite food. And what better outlet to use when sharing the (cheese) love than by giving your fingernails a dairy-makeover? Although its a painstaking process to paint on such a small canvas, cheesy nail art is just another crazy way for cheese lovers to prove their commitment.

If you’re looking for a design that’s a little more simplified, why not go for the “I-just-ate-an-entire-bag-of-Doritos” cheese dust look? It’s one of our personal favorites.
