As a Leo, I’m confident in the assertion that Leos are fabulous, fierce, friendly—and love attention. So an eye-catching manicure is the perfect choice to sport this season. Think: Bright pinks, shiny chromes, and loads of texture. Plus, you can lean into colors like orange, the aura of Leos, and peridot green, the birthstone for August Leos. Ahead, browse 20 Leo-approved manis to sport this season, whether you’re celebrating your birthday or simply want some of our contagious energy in your life.
Cheetah Print
Since Leos are symbolized by the lion, feline energy runs strong among us. Capture that essence with a cheetah print mani.
Main Character
There’s something about a pink chrome mani that screams main character. It’s bold and showy in the perfect way.
Peridot & Pearls
With Leo season spanning the month of August, its only right to include looks inspired by the month’s birthstone, peridot. This look features peridot green with chrome, pearl, and 3D gel accents.
Orange Aura
As orange is the aura color associated with Leos, an orange manicure is great for the sign. Especially when done in an aura style with gold chrome accents.
It Girl
This manicure oozes Leo energy. It features long square nails adorned in 3D swirls and charms all topped with gold chrome powder.
Juicy Skittle
Keep an orange manicure interesting with a blend of different shades or orang in a skittle manicure.
Star
Everyone knows that Leos are stats in their own right, so gold chrome stars are more than fitting.
Mermaid Energy
Although Leo is a fire sign, anyone born under Leo is a summer baby. So incorporating marine elements like seashells and pearls into a manicure is a great tribute.
Sparkle and Shine
Incredibly striking, this manicure features a sheer nude base with a subtle dash of a pink aura design. It’s topped with 3D gold chrome stars, lines, and swirls.
Maximalist
With a bubble gum pink base, and trippy elements like mushrooms and aliens, this is perfect for a funky Leo look.
Sea Foam Sparkle
Peridot is quite an intense green, so going for a softer shade in with a shimmery finish can help you get the same vibe.
Lioness
If lions got manicures, this is what I imagine it would look like—long, glossy, and understated.
Sunset Chrome
This mix of orange and pink chrome topped emulates fire in a super cute way. Especially since it’s topped with 3D waves to add movement.
Sunny Flower
This simple orange mani got a gorgeous upgrade with 3D flowers and pearls. The orange has yellow undertones, keeping the look bright and sunny.
Orange & Blue
Leos love to stand out, so pairing the sign’s aura color with a complementary blue is a winning combo.
Leapord French
To channel feline energy without a fully printed mani, go for a French tip.
Orange Stars
Combine Leo’s star power with a fiery orange for a fittingly fabulous look.
Peridot
For sublet peridot vibes, coat your nails with a few coats of the yellowy-green hue.
Copper Shimmer
This coppery shimmer shade is a stunning choice if you want something simple yet impactful.
Green Aura
Another aura nail look, this one combines a deeper shade of green with silver sparkles and French tips.
