Bling it Out: 20 Nail Extension Designs with Rhinestones!

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. But some of us can’t afford them. So we will settle for rhinestones and sparkle!

Well-groomed nails are a sign of hygiene and provide a personal satisfaction that is indescribable to those who don’t understand. You can get gel nail extensions, acrylic extensions, french tips, and more. The scope for creative nails is limitless.

Rhinestones can instantly add that extra oomph factor to your nail art and give any outfit a stylish makeover. Rhinestones come in different shapes, sizes, and colors, so you can unleash your creativity. There are mainly three types of rhinestones available- crystal, glass, and acrylic.
