You’ve prepped up big time for Holi. No reason not to, since you get to splash around in a crazy myriad of colors only once a year. But while you’re handpicking the whites from your overflowing wardrobe, your nails might feel a little left out.
Time to pay ode to the most colourful day of our otherwise boring lives with vibrant pinkies. Not only are these Holi nail art ideas hassle-free, but they’ll also protect your talons from harmful, chemical-laden Holi colors. This DIY nail art is your cue to bring out that bottomless nail kitty ‘cause Holi Hai!
Here are the colorful nail art ideas for Holi:
-
Rainbow Riot
Ombre madness has taken over talon town and rightly so. Hands down the easiest way to dress up your nails, swear by this rainbow-inspired ombre nail art idea for Holi with the Faces Splash Nail Enamel. Pour the brightest shades of the range next to each other on a palette. After layering your cuticles with a protective layer of glue, dip a clean makeup sponge into the polish and dab lightly on your nails. Finish off with the protective Nykaa Top Coat Nail Enamel and you’re set.

Dot It Away
Got only a humble dotting tool to call your nail tool kit? Trust us, that’s all you need. Set the plush white base with the O.P.I Nail Lacquer - Alpine Snow. Next up, dip your dotting tool into your favourite shades from the Lotus Make-Up Ecostay Nail Enamel and keep dotting. Play around with the sizes of the dots and create a pattern of your choice. Don’t forget to layer it with the Jaquline USA Matte Stroke Mattifying Top Coat in all that excitement, though.

Bold In Black
Chuck those stereotypical pastel nail art designs and go bold this season. Embrace juicy, all-black nails and stand out in the crowd. Paint two generous coats of the Miss Nails Hi-Gloss Nail Polish - Olive Black. Now with your dotting weapon, add minimalistic touches to your black base using color pops from the Colorbar Arteffects Nail Lacquer range. End with a Essence Gel Look Plumping Top Coat and voila!

Glitter Tips? Yayy!
Never thought multi-colored, glitter Frenchies could look so classy? Here’s your wakeup call. Start with a layer of the Yves Rocher SOS Resistant Base Coat. Dip each tip in a different shimmer shade from the Maybelline New York Color Show Party Girl Nail Paint range. Seal the deal with the Sally Hansen Triple Shine Top Coat Vernis De Protection and you’re Holi ready.
