Alright, by now you’re pretty much aware of the fact that Diwali is practically our favourite time of the year. What’s not to love? There’s so much sparkle, joy and lip-smacking mithai all around us. Not to mention the gleaming outfits and sparkly makeup we get to don throughout the week! My glittery eyeshadow palettes only come out this time of the year and I love it. However, since everything’s shining, don’t you think your nails need to as well? Glitzy nails? Sign us up, STAT!

Usually, we love keeping it lowkey with our nails all throughout the year, but Diwali is the one time when we can amp up on all of the shine and glitz. Since I was scouring through Instagram this past week, looking for nail inspo, I had a massive revelation. Everyone’s probably trying to do the same! So, I decided to bookmark all of my favourites for you to get inspired with the shine. 

Show these to your manicurist when you book your appointment!

Classic glitter styles not yo’ thing? Holographic nails are quite the eye-catching choice, especially if paired with opal and marble textures.

Glazed donut nails were a hot favourite all thanks to Hailey Bieber. An elegant style that is versatile enough to match all of your festive fits, you could also spice this one up with some colour.
