Painting nails has never been more fun thanks to all of the nail art inspiration on [Pinterest](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phone-free-experience) and other similar sites, the Julep Plie Wand ensures that both newbies and veterans to this beauty fad are able to create the best look on their own. Instead of spending an arm and a leg visiting nail salons every two weeks, the Julep Plie Wand delivers more control and accuracy for better [at-home applications](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/athome-gel-manicure).

The Julep Plie Wand revolves around an ergonomic design in the form of a weighted handle that twists, pivots, and bends, making it easy to polish with either hand. It comes with a cap that can fit into over any Julep [nail color](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nail-products) and magnetically interlocks with the Plié Wand.
