25 Festival Nail Ideas

Although we can’t guarantee the weather this year, at least we can guarantee your favourite festivals are back and going to be better than ever. It’s no surprise that nails are at the top of our to-think-about list, because what’s better than a bright fun manicure when you’re sat in a grey field, most-likely covered in mud?  

Festival season is officially back and open for business, and we’ve got a backstage pass into the best festival nail designs, that will transport you to Glasto, Parklife or even Coachella if you’re feelin boujee.

Scroll to get inspired…

We couldn’t get together inspo for festival nails without including a tie-dye set, could we? The vibrant, feel-good vibes from this set by @nails.ninetynine create the ultimate festival nails.

@bambinailss

Pastels? Check. Abstract? Check. Short enough to be able to put up a tent? Check. Thanks @bambinailss, we’re obsessed. 

@candynails_by_gemma

For the not-so-basic basic nail lover, we love this set from @candynails_by_gemma. If you can’t combine neon and cow print at a festival, when can you?

@house__of__nails

We are beyond obsessed with this set from @house_of_nails. The glossy hot pink and baby pink detail adds a little extra. 

@ljc_nails

@ljc_nails is here to brighten any dull day (most likely the whole of the festival). Who ever said orange was the new pink was seriously GENIUS. When you cant choose one, just get both. 

@primxpropernails

If you like both simple and groovy nail looks, @primxpropernails has come through with the perfect solution. 

@beautebyaimee

It’s double the french, double the fun with @beautebyaimee. Put a fun festival twist on the classic French with a set like this.

@nafsalon

These are without a doubt the cutest nails we’ve ever seen. Congrats @nafsalon, we are obsessed.

@charsgelnails_

If you want to channel the festival vibes but don’t want to go with a super groovy set, why not try this design by @charsgelnails_. We love this ombre sunset set and are screenshotting asap.

@kariimariiinails

There are too many things that we love about these nails from @kariimariiinails. Rainbows + flowers +smiley faces= festival ready.

@paging_dr_mani

For a more understated finish, we’re loving this design from @paging_dr_mani. Lilac can be subtle but never boring.

@byjessicamorris

Make a simple ombre design extra by adding a touch of bling. This is one for the long-nail lovers, we’re obsessed @byjessicamorris.

 

@islasnailsandbeauty

If, like us, you can never choose between one colour and a pattern, then this design by @islasnailsandbeauty is the one for you. The wavey lines and lush hot pink are a headline for us this festival season.

@grabberznailco

Orange you glad we showed you this… @grabberznailco is showing us how its done with this stunning orange ombre set.
