Candy Paint

Candy Paint is a buzzy mani salon that caters directly to the nail art craze. Nestled inside the flagship boutique of jewelry designer Melody Ehsani (whose fans include Beyonce and Rihanna), this nail bar’s expert artists (including celebrated nail artist Yoko Sakakura) can execute any “candy” (3D nails, ombre, intricate designs) and “toppings” (Swarovski crystals, bows, studs), with full manicures starting at $45. Imported Japanese nail art magazines and complimentary green tea confirm that this spot is the real deal.
