The nifty nail tutorial teaches you how to replicate the look of the yummy ice cream bars for your nails. This nail tutorial is conveniently easy to and has nail salon-worthy payoff. Start with all white nails as a base for your Mickey-themed design. The trick is to use a thin stick, like a wooden skewer, to replicate the shape of the iconic Mickey Mouse ice cream bar. Dip your skewer in a brown-colored nail polish and paint Mickey Mouse's round face using one big circle and two small circles for the ears. Then just add a lighter brown line underneath Mickey Mouse's face to represent the popsicle stick. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 44% | Activity: 59% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Disney-inspired Nail Art:** Disney-inspired nail art is gaining popularity on social media and presents an opportunity for nail polish and beauty brands to collaborate with Disney to release official collections of Disney-themed nail polish shades and designs. - **DIY Nail Art Tutorials:** With the emergence of social media tutorials such as this Disney-inspired nail art tutorial, DIY nail art tutorials are becoming more popular and present an opportunity for small independent nail polish and beauty brands to create tutorial content showcasing their products. - **Food-inspired Nail Art:** As food-inspired nail art gains popularity, it presents opportunities for brands to collaborate with food and beverage companies to create limited edition collections inspired by iconic food and beverage items such as the Mickey Mouse ice cream bars sold at Disney theme parks. ### Where This Applies - **Beauty:** This tutorial offers an opportunity for nail polish and beauty brands to create Disney-inspired collections of nail polish shades and designs. - **Social Media:** With the growing popularity of nail art tutorials on social media, social media platforms can collaborate with nail polish and beauty brands to create sponsored content and a wider reach for the products. - **Food & Beverage:** Collaborations between food and beverage companies and nail polish and beauty brands offer an opportunity to release limited edition collections inspired by iconic food and beverage items such as the Mickey Mouse ice cream bars sold at Disney theme parks. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fast Food-Inspired Nail Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nails-inc-x-mcdonalds.md) - [QSR-Inspired Nail Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-collection.md) - [Pizza-Themed Nail Art Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emergency-pizza-mani-kit.md) - [Pastry Chef-Approved Nail Polishes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nail-edit-kits.md) - [Festive Disney Shoe Charms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mickey-mouse-holiday-jibbitz.md) - [Exclusive Cartoon Press-On Nails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-friends.md) - [Citrus-Inspired Press-Ons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sumo-citrus-x-chillhouse.md) - [Cozy Cartoon-Themed Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pleasing-3.md) - [AI Nail Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nail-designs-ai.md)
