These Nails Will Push You to Get a Next-Level Manicure ...

By Lyndsie

Getting a manicure is fun, if you're into that sort of thing. I am, sometimes – right now, I'm trying to stop biting my nails again. I quit for two years or something, but now I'm back to gnawing my nails every time I get nervous. Sad state of affairs. Trolling my Insta feed for next-level manicures helps, though. Seeing all those gorgeous designs and long, graceful fingernails is enough to inspire me to quit again – and even if I can't quit biting, these to-die-for manicures are worthy of admiration!

Matte Black

Matte manicures look just as fierce as matte lips, in my not so humble opinion. This manicure is also fierce – it goes so well with the jewelry!

2

A Disney Dream

As if the polka dots aren't utterly charming by themselves, Minnie Mouse is hiding out on the accent nail, and she is bringing it.

3

A Little Lace

I think I've found my next manicure, as a matter of fact. This is so pretty!

4

The Sweetest Mani

Sprinkles, cupcakes, frosting, and even a cherry on top – what could be better?

5

French Flair

Here's a lovely little French take on the lace look. I'm certainly in love.

Pretty in Pink

A simple pink shade can look so chic, don't you think?

7

A Magical Manicure

There's a lot going on here, but it's worthwhile to take in all the details.

8

You're a Daisy if You do

These nails are beyond charming. I cannot even imagine the skill it took to make those flowers.

9

Subtle Color

You wouldn't think grey and beige could look so pretty. It's a lovely natural look, though. Makes me rethink my opinion of greige.

10

Mirror Mirror on Your Nails

Pulling off a polish like this is hard. It's way too easy to accidentally smudge it.

11

Visual Intrigue

I love that all the decals are in different spots. I also love that ring.

12

Bejeweled and Beguiled

In the first place, the base color here is stunning – fun, vivid, eye-catching. In the second places, the jeweled accents are perfection!

13

All That Glitters

Here's an interesting idea – you're not stuck with one color, and you get more than one accent nail. What do you think?

14

Rainbows

I wholeheartedly approve of the rainbows.

15

Eye-spy

This manicure reminds me of The Great Gatsby.

16

Butterflies

All of these decals are adorable.

17

Never Pick a Pattern

Why pick one? Go with complementary colors and splash out with a different pattern for every nail if you want.

Do you have a go-to manicure or do you prefer painting your nails using a new design every time?
