Valentine’s Day may be known as a day filled with chocolate, cards, and hearts, but we think that it’s a reason to celebrate all sorts of love. Take a page out of the self-care handbook and treat yourself to a Valentine’s Day-inspired manicure. Whether you’re a fan of minimalist masterpieces, fun designs, bold pops of color, or prefer to keep it classic, the options are endless. Keep scrolling to discover 56 of our favorite Valentine’s Day nail designs that are far from cheesy.

01 Negative-Space White Heart

Sometimes, it’s the absence of color that makes the biggest impact. Here, nails get coated in white, but the designs are made out of negative space. We love the statement heart nail juxtaposed with the classic French mani.

02 Pink Bows

Coquette nail art is super on trend, so while bows aren’t the first thing you think of when you think of the love holiday, they’re also pretty on theme, too. When done in shades of bubbly pink, they’re dainty and totally Valentine’s Day approved in our book.

03 Pastel Aura

This manicure radiates from within, giving an aura around the edges of the nail and moving from rich pink to light lilac. Replicating this look in shades of red and pink or white would be another way to celebrate the love holiday with your nails.

04 Classic Red

This is about as classic as it gets: a red manicure, made ultra-glossy with a top coat. We love the slightly pointed shape to add further interest. But lets face it, glossy red nails look good on all shapes and sizes.

05 Cherries and Hearts

Cherries, hearts, and shiny gems make for the juiciest Valentine’s Say nail set. The good thing about these is after February 14th, you won’t get sick of them.
