When everything around you is sparkling for Diwali, why leave your nails out?

One of the best things about Diwali, besides shopping, is getting festive-ready from top to toe. While you’ve got your outfits picked out, we’re here to take care of your nail art – you know, in case it slips your mind.

There are plenty of Diwali nail art designs you can explore depending on the theme you pick such as glitter, monotone, ombré, embellishment, and more. All of them come with a festive touch and could really uplift your nail game.

Whether you choose to go minimal with monotone shades or go all out with embellished nails, we’ve rounded up a list of Diwali nail art designs for you to pick:

Sparkly Tips

We get that it’s festive time, but if you don’t want to OD on glitter, you could apply some just on your nail tips for a vibe-check.

Gold Accents

Gold is good, but there is such a thing as too much gold. You don’t want your nails to overpower your festive fit. Get some gold accents here and there to blend in with the rest of your Diwali nail design.

Glitter Ombré

Ombré nails are always a great choice. Keeping up with the festive spirit, opt for glitter ombré nails for your Diwali nail design and add some sparkle to your style.

Star-dusted Mani

If you’re going for a royal look, we’d highly recommend this shiny white star-studded nail art design on a bed of shimmery burgundy nails. It’s a sure showstopper!

Bright & Bold

Who doesn’t love a pop of colour on their nails to really bring out the festive season, right? This canary yellow and wine-red nail art design would definitely grab eyeballs.

Silver Fairy Dust

When it’s festive season, there is no such thing as too much sparkle. Infact, the more the better, especially if it comes embellished in pretty silver speckles.

Gold Foil Design

Add some gold to your regular nail art and it instantly qualifies for a festive look. Case in point: This minimal half-white and half-nude design accentuated with gold foil in the centre to make your nails festive-ready.

Pearly White

Don’t underestimate an all-white nail colour – if accessorized well, it could really elevate your festive look. Especially if the lacquer has a chrome finish and comes in this dreamy shade.

Metallic Magic

If you’re going for monotone, chrome lacquers are the best way to take your look from drab to fab in no time. That shiny metallic sheen is all you need to rock your Diwali festive look.

Rose Gold Magic

Festive Florals

You can’t get enough of pretty flowers during the festive season – from your hair accessories to the traditional ceremonies, they’re going to be everywhere and we don’t see why you should leave your nails out of all the floral fun.

Berry Red Bliss

When you can’t seem to pick the right Diwali nail art design, a deep berry gel polish is your safest bet. It’s minimal, fuss-free, and looks fab with traditional and western wear.

Embellished Nails

This one is for those of you who love all things extra glam! If you want your nails to be the first thing people notice, this Diwali art design will do the trick.

Nude Glaze

Looking for a fuss-free Diwali nail art design? We’ve got the perfect one for you.

Rock a natural sheen with this nude shade that would pair well with every outfit.

While you could try some of these nail art designs by yourself at home, it’s best to schedule an appointment with a professional whom you can trust to do a good job.
