Here's what on the mani mood board for Taurus this year


Spring has sprung, and Taurus season has arrived. Stepping into the spotlight from 19 April until 20 May, this sign is all about enjoying life’s little pleasures and creating an environment that let’s them thrive. And with a trip to the nail tech at the top of their birthday wish list, we can’t help but wonder: which mani best captures a Taurus’ sensual spirit? Let’s find out.

How To Tap Into The Taurus Aesthetic

Dependable, thoughtful, hardworking – we’re of course talking about Taurus. As an Earth sign, Taurus is known for being grounded and practical – with a love of comfort as well as beauty. They can be a little resistant to change, but their propensity for the classics makes them reliably steadfast in their opinion. But this sign is also ruled by Venus, which means they’re often drawn to beautiful things and little luxuries.

The same sentiment comes across in their personal style – including their manicure choices. ‘Taurus nails are elegant, timeless and touchable,’ says Leighton Denny MBE, nail expert and founder of Leighton Denny Nails. ‘Think rich, indulgent tones, high-gloss finishes, and designs that feel as good as they look. Taurus rules the senses, so texture, colour and detail really matter. Expect designs that are less trend-led and more about classic sophistication – with a twist of indulgence.’

Create The Look: Taurus Nails

Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, so there’s a strong pull toward anything that feels refined and luxurious. They love manis that are low-maintenance but never basic – beautiful neutrals, glazed and velvet textures, and soft metallic, iridescent finishes. They also appreciate quality, so a well-filed shape and flawless finish are non-negotiables.

Below, Leighton shares some of his top nail designs for Taurus:

Earthy Luxe

‘As an earth sign, Taurus is naturally drawn to grounded, tactile tones that feel luxurious without shouting for too much attention,’ notes Leighton. ‘Shades like rich chocolate, warm taupe or deep olive create a chic, wearable look that’s calming and effortlessly polished.’

Venusian Glow

‘Taurus is ruled by Venus, so it’s no surprise they’re drawn to looks that feel soft, sensual and effortlessly beautiful,’ the nail expert tells us. ‘A blush or nude base with delicate gold accents creates what I call a “Venusian Glow” – it’s romantic, refined, and speaks to their love of quiet luxury.’

Emerald Energy

‘Emerald is this sign’s birth stone – making it a power shade for them,’ says Leighton. ‘It’s rich, luxurious and carries that serene strength they’re known for.’
