Galaxy Nail Art That’s Out of This World

March 17, 2022

In the early 2010s, you could find galaxy print on just about everything — leggings, sweatshirts, beanies and, yes, nails. While some of these fashion choices were questionable (to say the least), galaxy nails have been enjoying a sudden resurgence of popularity in 2022, and honestly, we’re here for it. Velvet polishes, fun nail stickers and French tip designs breathe new life into the intergalactic nail art trend. Keep reading for our favorite takes on galaxy nails.

Sleek Chrome

For a modern and edgy take on galaxy nails, look to this subtly mismatched manicure. We love the French tip accent nail and the geode-like design on the index finger.


Sparkling Stilettos

Mesmerizing layers of glitter and a razor-sharp stiletto shape make this a galaxy manicure you absolutely can’t miss.


Witchy Vibes

The almond shape and moody colors make these galaxy nails look more new age than space age.


Starry Night Nails

Tiny white stars add a cute touch to these galaxy nails. You can achieve a similar duochrome effect by asking your nail tech to use a magnetic nail polish, or DIY the look with this cat-eye set from Amazon.

Space-y Nails

Why not take galaxy nails one step further by adding tiny planets and alien decals? This set is perfect if you prefer shorter nails.
