Dainty Hearts

Dainy, tiny hearts add a flirty flair to this pink and mauve gradient manicure. This look can be recreated on any nail length or with any color gradient as a base.

Y2K Mani

This is the adorable girly mani of our Y2K middle school dreams. Daisies and frosting and rainbows — oh my!

Multi-Trend Mani

This manicure combines multiple different nail trends in one: BIAB nails, French tips and warm, chocolatey brown tones.

Sparkly Cherry Nails

These sparkly cherry nails look good enough to eat. We love the finishing touch of the glitter coat.

Classic Pink Mani

Elevate a classic pink mani with a jaw-dropping marble accent nail. We can’t believe the detailing, down to the veins of metallic polish. 

Gradient Blues

This gradient manicure has us feeling blue — in the best possible way. 

Tortoiseshell Nails

Tortoiseshell nails are a sophisticated way to dip your toes into the world of nail art. They’re effortlessly chic and will go with any outfit.

Reverse French Mani

This stunning mani is for the minimalist who always pays attention to the details. 

Sparkles and Swirls

Pretty swirls with a hint of sparkle tie together this fall manicure rendered in foliage-inspired shades of green and orange.

Rainbow French Tips

There’s no denying it. Rainbow french tips are one manicure trend that aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.

Abstract and Artsy

Turn your hands into works of art with this abstract, high-contrast manicure using black and nude polish. 

Orange and Hot Pink

Orange swirls on a hot pink base complete this electrifyingly vibrant mani.

Bejeweled Mani

We’re not ones to turn down a little bit of bling, like the beautifully intricate details of this bejeweled manicure. 

Pink and Blue Daisies

Pink, blue, and purple make for an adorable color combo with this flowery mani. Here, the daisies adorn an accent nail on each finger, while the other nails incorporate different colorful designs.

Purple Animal Print

Animal print gets a monochromatic makeover with these funky purple and magenta zebra stripe nails.

Forest Green Nails

Deep, forest green like the polish in this photo is one of our go-to winter nail shades.

Matte French Manicure

A clean matte finish sets a basic manicure apart from the rest. Here, the matte effect is paired with electric blue french tips.

Flames

Channel your inner rockstar by decorating your nails with edgy black flames. 

Pink Neutral

If you’re not into nail art or bold colors, BIAB is still a great option for a neutral pink mani that will last.

Gold Cuffs

Subtle, metallic gold cuffs outline the cuticles with this simple yet stunning manicure.

Lavender Floral

We like the idea of an elegant, vintage-inspired floral manicure like this lavender one for a wedding or special event.

Clouds

It doesn’t get dreamier than this celestial clouds and stars manicure.

Animal Print Stripe

Not ready to commit to a full cow print nails? This manicure consists of a single vertical stripe of animal print down the middle of each nail for a fun yet stylish effect.

Marble Nails

These incredible nails look like smooth, sleek marble and the gold vein detailing takes them to the next level. 

Green Chrome Tips

Shiny emerald green tips make for an eye-catching statement mani. The nails are finished off with little twinkles. 

Leaves

Detailed brown leaves meet tortoiseshell for the ultimate fall manicure.

Neon Paint Splatter

Highlighter yellow polish on a nude base creates this neon paint splatter mani. This look would also be amazing with hot pink or bright orange splatter.
