The power of stones and crystals intrigues more and more. Jade, amethyst and quartz of all kinds, are powerful true works of art that we hesitate to wear… on our nails.

Always looking for inspiration for new nail art designs? The geode is the rock buzzing on Pinterest. This stone, with thousands of crystals, has a unique design that makes it even more precious. Extremely powerful and protective, it converts energy into love and is also able to purify. But it is on the nails that its colors, often purplish, come together and become a real trend that can be found everywhere on social media.

What is geode nail art?

This very special looking nail art uses colored crystals located in the middle of the nail surrounded by a marbled pattern of many colors, following the movement of the crystals. This unique style will create depth to the nail art, making it more realistic.

Some geode nail art inspirations to recharge your energy:
