This year, brands and nail artists are gearing up for the season of love to bring you various sweetheart-worthy designs. Nail designs have evolved big time. We’ve evolved to a point where you can literally match nail designs to an outfit of your own styling. With designs so attractive, you’ll want to rock them long past Valentine’s Day. If you’re spending Valentine’s Day with the girls, with a boo thing, or by yourself, there’s no reason not to look like the snack you are!

Not feeling very festive this season? We’ve got you covered! Byrdie recommends this vampy matte nail look to express just how you’re feeling on the inside. Swap out the shiny topcoat for a velvety matte finish. Pair it with a deep blood red or even some glimmering accents for an unforgettable contrast.

This whimsical trend combines the charm of classic heart shapes with the sparkle and excitement of confetti, creating a design that’s both fun and full of love. The result? A lively, celebratory look that’s perfect for the season of romance.

From romantic reds to chic neutrals and playful accents, these designs aren’t just for February 14th — they’re a fashion-forward choice you’ll love well into spring.

Whether you’re embracing minimalist hearts, bold pink ombrés, or glittery glamour, let your nails be a canvas for your personal style. So, treat yourself to a mani session, snap some pics for the ‘gram, and enjoy the confidence boost that comes with perfectly polished tips.

Because love — especially self-love — is always in style.
