57 Crafty Valentine’s Nail Ideas To Fall In Love With For V-Day

Considering all you need to organize for Valentine’s day, it’s easy to leave your nails to the last minute. From picking the perfect outfit to planning a romantic date, and choosing the right gift, Valentine’s traditions sure come with many tasks that can be overwhelming. However, as a style queen, that shouldn’t deter you as you ought to slay even to your nails. Luckily, there are plenty of inspirations as the #nailedit tag on Instagram isn’t bustling for no reason. As a result, we’ve curated this guide on the best Valentine’s nails you should try to save you the predictability of a boring red coat. 

Though a red polish is downright sexy and timeless, there’s so much more you can do to add character to your manicure. Really, the options are endless. This season, nail artists are exploring the versatility of colors that represent love –red, pink, blue, etc– to see how far they can go in the name of love. Other than that, artsy designs and embellishments have also come to the fore in both retro and contemporary takes. While in true Valentine’s fashion heart shape takes the cake, we’re also seeing interesting characters like Minnie Mouse claim a spot on nails.

Beyond love-themed art, there’s also a good measure of unexpected wittiness on nails this V-Day. For example, several manicurists have ditched the famed colors of love and have rather opted for tones such as brown, black, and even silver. This is definitely great news because irrespective of your personal taste or favorite color, you’ll surely come across a handful of Valentine’s nails you can totally fall in love with. 

Check out stunning Valentine’s nail ideas to blow you away…

Dainty hearts

When love is mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is a heart shape, little wonder this shape is dominating nails this season. Incorporating the shape into your nails is pretty simple as it can either be drawn or applied in the case of heart-cut glitter. In addition, heart designs range anywhere from a few to very many. This means that you’re free to take the route you’re most comfortable with.

Colors of love

As mentioned earlier, love has a color, and manicurists know this well. Depending on you’re preference, you can explore these colors on your nails for Valentine’s day. These colors can either be solid or a blend of your favorite love-themed hues. For example, pink and red seem to be the more sought-after combination of love, but that doesn’t mean you can’t try pink and blue. Go on, knock yourself out!

Fearless embellishments

Embellishments have gone bold for Valentine’s day and they show no signs of ever retreating. This is good news for the girl that’s fearless enough to go creative with experiments. From crystals to glitters, the 2023 Valentine’s day nail theme is certainly bold and fearless. How bold can you go?

Mix and match

Another nail option for you is to strike a balance between colors and designs. That means you can take a love-themed shade and pair it with another color that’s completely off the spectrum. Other than that, you can also play with glitters as well as other designs for a dramatic effect. If it has never been done before, well, now’s the time to try out that combination.

Kisses

What’s a good love story without some good ole kisses? If heart shapes don’t cut it for you but you still want to stick to the theme of the moment, then try to incorporate lips into your nail design. The good thing about this is that kiss designs can work alone and also work well as part of a theme. For example, we’ve seen lip emojis blended with crystals, glitters, solid colors, and everything in between.

Whimsical vibes

Think comic nails that are fun and playful. This Valentine’s season is the time to lean towards the entertaining side of life. Take your partner’s hands and let them view yours too. The beauty of colorful and playful nails is they don’t restrict the imagination. It’s the season of love, don’t let the child-like spirit die.
