The Definitive List of Almond Nail Designs for 2018
1. Beautiful Blue
The first Almond Nails on our list comes from our Editor herself. We thought we’d start this article with a celebratory glass. This simple blue is subtle but radiates elegance. Also, these are shellac almond nails. These can be particularly useful if you plan on growing your nails but still want to look the part whilst they grow.
2. Pink Sparkles

The transition between the pink and the glitter goes so well with the almond shape! You can personalise this design by changing either the base color (pink) or the glitter color, depending on your preference or event. This will really accentuate your nails. You also have the ability to edit the ordering between the base color and glitter. But remember – less is more!
3. Gorgeous Glitter Feature
For some people, having a number of colors can look tasteless. For others, it can look mesmerising! Learn what works with your skin tone and the colours that go best with it. Like these almond nails above, if you have tanned skin, darker colors seems to work particularly well. Using the sparkle version of the color on the ring fingers is a wonderful way to make your ring stand out!
4. Be Creative
Your nails do not need to be an abstract colour or glittery or a mix of the two. Depending on your level of nail art skill, you can apply (or get others to) unique and jaw-dropping designs. You can see that the artist has spent some time in the design above, but it has paid dividends. The poppies over a dark black work really well together, bringing out the fine detail of the flower. A great set of creative nails.
5. Be Unique
This almond nail design is very unique in nature and you do not see many with it. The contrast between the light blue and black cuticles really makes the design pop whilst the central line provides a more rounded aspect.
6. Glittered Tips
The use of the glitter tip is really quite something with these Almond Nails. The remaining plain nail gives it even more prominence. It’s completely sassy, and that’s why we love it! It can be quite difficult to pull off so make sure you know exactly what you are doing before you get started!
7. The Eggsellent Design
We might have just had Easter, but that doesn’t mean Easter wont come around again! Why not design your nails for the occasion by making use of several bright and light colors. This Easter Egg design has us inspired to try it out for next year!
8. Classy Shine
This design is perfect if you want almond nails that will work with most outfits but want more excitement. The use of glitter really helps these nails stand out. Plus, the combination of white and pink makes this design extra playful!
9. Add Some Crystals
Adding some crystals is an easy and surefire way to give that 3D effect and look. Just like the design above, be selective on your crystal placement. We like the way the crystals have been applied just to one nail and makes them look even more impressive. Just make sure you or your salon have all the materials required for these almond nails before you begin!
10. Orange is the New Black?
Orange is one of those colors that doesn’t suit everyone nor every occasion. But if you get the right shade, like in the design above, it can look like the real deal. Its a color that is not usually used, so it makes a great change from the traditional color sets.
11. Go Tribal
Tribal almond nail designs have become very popular of late, and many who are interested in fashion like to wear them. There are many types of Tribal Designs, and you can even get your nails painted to match. Our design above is one of the most stunning we have been able to find, but a quick search of “Almond Nail Tribal” in Pinterest will provide you with many alternatives . As these almond nails are tricky, you would need to be quite the artist to pull them off yourself at home. Therefore, it may be easier to go to a Salon. We suggest you take a photo of the design you want so that the nail technician will know exactly what you are after.
12. Cool Toned Pallett
Some of the most creative nails on the list. This nail design is great because it makes use of three colors that go really well together. And because of this, its not too over-complicated. When trying this design yourself, you’ll want to be really selective on your colors and the ordering; put too many together or in the wrong order and this can become quite overwhelming.
13. Brilliant Black
There is something rather sexy about the colour black on nails. Despite the darkness, it looks sleek and stylish. Its also quite the fashion statement. It also looks really classy just having the Matt black color without the need for any other colors/effects.
14. Black Glitter Fade
Carrying on with our Black Almond Nails theme, we also couldn’t ignore this design above. Its not too much, and the gold glitter just finishes it off. We also recommend, just like in the picture above, you use top polish. This top coat will ensure your nails have the polished, glossy finish.

Whilst the bow and the love heart really stand out in this design, there’s no denying how striking the word love is. We really like this design, its relatively unique and you don’t see it too often.…
