Libra season is here and if you’re reading this blog post I’m assuming your search for the best Libra nail designs brought you here (& I’m so happy it did)!
Just in case you need a brush up on your astrology. Libra is the seventh astrological sign in the zodiac for people born from September 23 to October 22. Libras are social, charming and artistic. They are also compassionate and empathetic people and are always willing to go out of their way to help others. They dislike conflict and avoid confrontation. Libra is represented by the scales of justice which explains their fascination of balance, fairness and harmony. They’re able to see all sides of situations which makes them great at mediating and resolving conflicts.
Libra is ruled by Venus, so they have a strong love of beauty, art, fashion, design and aesthetics. Libra is an air sign along with Gemini and Aquarius, which categorizes them as thinkers, communicators and doers, they are the leaders of society. Libra is also a cardinal sign which makes them natural leaders and trendsetters.
Now that you’ve learned a little bit about this creative, charming, fashion forward zodiac sign you can understand why finding the perfect libra-inspired nail designs is so important!
I’m pretty sure I was planning these Libra birthday nails for 10 months. I knew I wanted a Libra-themed manicure for my birthday, but the only problem is that my birthday mani would also be my Halloween mani and I needed to come up with a design that was astrological enough to satisfy my want to have a Libra nails, but witchy enough to satisfy my NEED to have a creepy Halloween manicure! If finding the perfect balance between a Libra mani and a witchy Halloween mani isn’t the definition of my inner Libra coming out I don’t know what is.
I initially started searching for blue Libra nail ideas because I knew I wanted a moody dark color like sapphire blue like the night sky as the base, but I couldn’t find exactly what I wanted. So instead I got a ton of cool Libra nail art inspo from Pinterest and Instagram to come up with this intricate nail design and could not be happier about how it turned out. We included an image of the libra constellation (obviously), a balancing scale, the Libra zodiac symbol and other starry details.
These moody, star filled, sparkly, navy nails are legit perfection and truly encompass the libra spirit and I’m not sure how I’m going to top these nail art designs! I think we “nailed” it (PUN INTENDED), but if you’re looking for a different Libra vibe I’ve got you covered! Check out all of my favorite Libra nails I’ve found to help you plan your next manicure.
The Ultimate Birthday Libra Nail Designs
Natural Libra Nails
If you’re a natural nail girlie, but still want a fun birthday manicure then this simple yet hyper-detailed nail design is for you! I love the classic look with gold constellation-themed details.
October Opal Libra Nails
If you’re an October Libra (like me) then these opal nails are the perfect choice. Opal is October’s birthstone and these soft pastel shades make the most gorgeous backdrop for a birthday manicure. Using the Libra symbol as accent nails make it even better!
Cloud Libra Nails
If you’re looking to tie the air element into your Libra nail design, then these gorgeous cloud nails are it! They perfectly tap into the sign’s graceful aura and are just so pretty and sparkly I can’t stop looking at them. Air signs are always focused on the details and these are perfect.
Pink Libra Nails
Venus, the planet of love, rules Libra so I absolutely had to include Libra pink nails in this round up of the best Libra nail designs. I love this pink cat eye French manicure and the sparkly pink base coat. The only thing missing are some Libra-themed details, but honestly the gold stars and moons are enough for me, I love this nail look so much.
Scales of Justice Libra Nail Designs
Libra’s love beauty, art and aesthetics so the intricate nail design on these light pink nails are right up our alley. I can’t get over how detailed the scale design is and I love the addition of the Old English initial.
Marbled Libra Nails
This marbled manicure is for all of my creative Libras. I’ve done so many different marbled manicures and loved them so this design immediately caught my eye. The nail tech that created this manicure picked the perfect colors and I love the addition of the iridescent foil.
Sacred Heart Nails
Another manicure that uses opal in it. I love that the 3-d hearts here are both tourmaline and opal, October’s two birthstones! Tourmaline is a pink stone mixed with other colors depending on the light and opal is also known for it’s shifting rainbow hues. I truly love everything about these nails. The white marble French tip, the gold stars, the perfectly placed rhinestones and the pink opal hearts!
Simple Star Nails
While I’m labeling this a simple star manicure it truly is anything but! The white and nude marble base, gold stars and blue hearts are definitely not plain, but for my Libra girls who don’t love super flashy nails, these are the perfect September or October birthday nails for you!
If you’re as obsessed with astrology as I am, do yourself a favor and start planning your birthday manicure now! And if you’re a Libra like me, HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
Happpyyyy (belated) birthday lady!
