Fake nail designs come in such a large variety. They can be adapted to all seasons, tastes, and preferences. Also, nowadays, we have many options when it comes to the fake nails we desire. You can choose between acrylic, gel, wrap and glue-on nails. As for the design, whether you go for a handmade painting or a sticker, it’s totally up to you.
Which Fake Nail Design Is Good For Me?
For each type of fake nail, there are pros and cons. Therefore, if you want acrylic, you must know they are long-lasting, don’t break easily, but, on the other hand, they are more expensive than the others.
When we talk about gel fake nails, this liquid lasts for about one or two weeks and is a little more resistant than regular polish. Even so, they require a UV lamp.
Last but not least, glue-on fake nails are so easy to apply and can be done at home. There are so many options available for these particular fake nails with a design, so you’ll find loads and patterns and shapes that you’ll adore.
Below you will discover designs for all tastes and styles, so make sure you scroll down and check out all of them.
