Taurus is an earth sign who loves luxury and is known to be loving, soothing, steady, and driven. Their aura color is green, tying into the earth. Keeping these elements in mind, you can celebrate the season with a stunning Taurus nail design.
“As an earth sign, Tauruses are grounded,” says celebrity nail artist Sarah Chue, “and they don’t venture too far beyond the middle line in their groundedness. Therefore, colors of the earth, like green and brown, definitely resonate with this sign.”
But you don’t want things to be too earthy, so the look still taps into the sign’s love of all things luxe. “I’d keep it earthy with cool tones with a hint of glimmer like sheen, chrome, or cat eye,” says Chue. “Maybe a small rhinestone or two to reflect their luxurious side.”
