A whale's tail and a playful dolphin celebrate the end of another day at sea. As you might imagine, you'll need to practice blending shades to make sunset nail designs at home. It's handy to be able to do ombre or gradient nails.
Twilight Nails

Red and Yellow Sunset Nails
This lively manicure is ideal for summertime. The clean design is easy to do at home, especially if you have nail art stickers for the palm trees.
Desert Dusk Nails
The owl calls, and the wind hisses over the sand as the sun dips below the skyline. We can't help but admire these beautiful nails with a Southwestern flair.
Hand-painted Sunset Nails
If you have a nail art brush and a steady hand, you could make a tropical sunset scene like this.
Egyptian Nightfall Nails
Camels and pyramids make it clear where this sundown scene is happening. Instead of French tips, they’re Egyptian. There’s just one problem: the artist included Bactrian or two-humped camels instead of Dromedary camels native to North Africa. However, it still makes for impressive artwork.
Serengeti Sunset Nails
Even without the giraffes, elephants, and birds of prey, the umbrella acacia trees would help you guess the setting for these sunset nails. You could also call them safari nails. They make us want to pick up our cameras and visit the wild parts of Nature.

LA Boulevard Nails
Here’s another sunset accent nail with an authentic Los Angeles vibe.
City Twilight Nails

Supplies for Sunset Nail Art
If you don’t want to use gels, you can still get amazing results with high-quality nail polish. We recommend LDS nail lacquers that come in over 170 colors. They are 9-free to protect your health. That means they don’t contain petrochemical solvents, formaldehyde, phthalates, or many other harsh chemicals. They’re also cruelty-free and vegan.
Nail professionals often choose gel polish because of its versatility and durability. For instance, a gel manicure lasts three times longer than a nail lacquer. Moreover, since the polish doesn't dry until it's cured in a nail lamp, an artist has all the time they need to perfect the design.
If you’re enchanted by vibrant colors or special effects like UV reflective glitter, check out the Lavis gel collections. They are professional gels that go on smoothly and won’t shrink or bubble. There are more than 200 shades to choose from.
Meanwhile, LDS gel polish is available in more than 170 shades. It’s odorless and cures in only 60 seconds!
There are other popular brands like DND and OPI in our store, too. Treat yourself to a new brush set so that you have all the tools you need to make the best nail designs. And don’t be shy about using nail stickers! They make nail art more fun and accessible to everyone.
No matter which gel polish you choose, remember to get base and top coats to protect your nails and maximize the polish’s performance. LDS includes a nail strengthener formula in that kit that fortifies weak nails.
Lastly, if you want your manicure to stand out from the crowd, use a matte finish. The Lavis matte top coat is just as durable as the Diamond top gel. It provides a satiny texture that will make your sunset nails unique.
