Oval Nails
Timeless elegance that elongates fingers
Oval nails are the epitome of classic elegance, featuring gently tapered sides that culminate in a softly rounded tip. This universally flattering shape creates the illusion of longer, more slender fingers, making it a favorite among those seeking a sophisticated yet natural look. Oval nails work beautifully on any nail length but truly shine on medium to long nails. The shape is versatile enough for both professional settings and special occasions, and it provides an excellent canvas for any nail art design or polish color.
