How to choose festival nails

Holographic and glitter
Holographic finishes catch stage lights and sunshine alike. Holographic Pink, Holographic Silver and Pink Stardust are the shiniest.
Neon brights
Hot pink, bright yellow and orange stand out in a crowd. Electric Pink comes as a manicure and a pedicure set if you want toes to match.
Mix it up
Skittle and rainbow sets put a different colour on each nail, so they go with every outfit you pack. Try Retro Rainbow, Rainbow Tips or Colour Crush.
For after dark
Pink Afterglow glows in the dark, which is fun for night sets and late gigs.
Keep them short
Short nails cope better with tent pegs, zips and wristbands. Strips are trimmed to your natural length, so short and bright is easy.

Nails for festivals, gigs and Pride

Festival nails are the time to go big on colour: holographic glitter, neon, rainbow and tie-dye all look right in a field or a crowd.

Do them at home before you leave. Gel strips cure under a UV or LED lamp in about 60 seconds, so there is nothing to pack but your cuticle oil.

Festival nails are bright, short and fun: holographic glitter, neon, rainbow and tie-dye prints suit a weekend of music, and a short length is the practical choice for tents, wristbands and packing up.

Velvora gel strips go on at home in about ten minutes and stay glossy for up to 14 days on fingernails, so a set applied a day or two before you travel lasts the whole weekend and the week after. The same sets work for a big gig, a stadium concert or Pride in the summer.

Back home and ready for a change? Add a few drops of cuticle oil around each edge and the strips peel off, with no acetone and no salon visit. For a quick switch with no lamp, our nail polish strips press on in minutes.

Good to know

Will gel nail strips last a festival weekend?+

A set lasts up to 14 days on fingernails, as long as it goes on clean, dry nails and is cured fully. Apply it a day or two before you travel and keep it away from water, soap and oils for the first three hours.

Short or long nails for a festival?+

Short nails are the practical choice for tents, zips, wristbands and packing up in a hurry. Strips are trimmed to your natural nail length, so a short, bright set is easy and still looks finished in photos.

Do I need to take a lamp to the festival?+

No. Apply and cure your gel strips at home before you leave: about 60 seconds under a UV or LED lamp sets them hard and glossy. Nail polish strips need no lamp at all if you want a quick switch on the road.

What nails go with a festival outfit?+

Holographic glitter, neon brights and rainbow or tie-dye prints suit most festival looks. If you are packing lots of colour, a mixed skittle set goes with everything. For a calmer outfit, a single holographic shade adds shine without clashing.

How do I take them off without a salon?+

Add a few drops of cuticle oil around each edge, gently lift with the manicure stick and peel the strip away. There is no acetone, no soaking and no filing, so you can do it at home in a few minutes.
