Floral Elegance

We’ve got a lot of favourite designs in this Raya nail idea collection, including this one. Though it looks simple at first glance, the intricate design of flowers makes the entire nail pop. And the added matte topcoat just speaks for itself.

If you like, you can switch up the base colour according to your outfit, although we suggest opting for soft hues to let the floral design shine.

Shades of Green

If you haven’t picked out your Raya outfit yet but know you’ll be going green this year, we have just the right nail design for you. This green ombre masterpiece boasts different shades of green French tip. From bright emerald green seamlessly transitions to pastel green shade is amazing.

It’s a fresh and stylish choice that will elevate your Raya look with a touch of individuality and charm.

Accent of Hearts

Do you agree with us that there’s nothing quite like the dynamic blend of pink and orange hues, adorned with delicate heart accents, to achieve a demure and charming look?

This captivating colour combination exudes vibrancy and warmth, while the subtle heart details add a touch of sweetness and romance, perfect for any occasion.

Pastel-hue French Tips

French manicure is even more desirable when you have options like this! Why not go for pastel-hued French nails for your Raya celebrations?

It’s stylish, timeless, and super versatile, matching any outfit beautifully. And if you’re not a fan of pastel shades (which we hope isn’t true), no worries, you can still rock it with subtle white tips for an equally impactful look.

All You Need is Love

If colourful nails aren’t your thing, then this all-white Raya nail idea is worth considering. It features a love-inspired design with basic French tips, but instead of the usual nude base, there’s a shimmer base. The design is adorable and will complement any Raya outfit you choose, as white matches everything and won’t clash with any colours.

Cherry Mocha

Upgrade your style with this stunningly beautiful cherry mocha nail. Its maroon-brown shade paired with a nude base adorned with sparkly stones truly compliments one another. This classy nail design combines deep tones with a hint of shimmer for a glamorous finish. It’s the perfect choice to add a touch of luxury to your Raya outfit or any upcoming special occasion.

Cake Queen

Sometimes simplicity stands out more than intricate designs, just like this nail design with several strokes of colours adorning the tips of each nail against a nude base. And don’t worry, you can achieve this stunning look with halal nail lacquers and still rock your Raya look with elegance and style.

Custom Mix
