38 Catholic Acrylic Nails Designs That Are So Pretty You’d Want to Recreate Them

We will all agree that Christian-themed nails are some of the most creative ones to get and equally controversial.

But nothing beats the creativity that comes with every design you see, especially the Catholic-themed ones.

Initially, I didn’t see the point of them because I was like “I can just buy a miraculous medal to show my faith any time”, but that thought changed fast when I started seeing how artistic the nail art was and somehow I knew I should get one ASAP.

If you are a catholic just like me, many of these nails might secretly appeal to you too because the way they are glammed up in the most Christian way but still managed to look extra unique is something other nail designs can learn from.

Whether you are looking for red catholic nails, blue ones, pink ones, sparkly ones, Holy Mary nail art, or even simple catholic nails, it’s all here.

Keep on reading for the most beautiful catholic acrylic and gel nail designs that you would want to recreate.

1. Ruby and gold

We all know how we feel about red let alone long red nails with gold and red detailing that are enough to make a statement.

The addition of ruby-like pieces of jewelry to these nails seriously took them to another level;  I love how royal this catholic nail art is.


2. Simple beads

When we talked about simple catholic nail art in the introductory part of the post, I’m sure you thought we were kidding.

I love what the nail tech did with these nails, especially with the rosary details, how they made it look like a complete rosary bead has been carefully infused in your nails.

The good thing about this design is that you can switch the white for black or even blue and the bead details can be in an opposite color too.


3. Heart of Mary

I am currently obsessing over this cute set of Holy Mary nail art! It’s so pretty and somewhat simple, and I love how she used a gold color for the sparkle.

I also love how she showed her full catholic faith through this nail art with the scared heart symbol too.


4. Rose-colored glasses

@majamarkowicz

One of the things I get reminded of whenever I see this rose-colored nail art set is the insides of my church back home.

If you attend mass often, one of the best things about the windows of a catholic church is usually the art on the windows, where you see pictures of saints gently carved into rose-colored glasses.

So, I love how cute these are and how nostalgic it makes me feel; if you want to jump on the catholic nail art trend but are a little bit shy you can start with this set.


5. Green and gold

Green nails are some of my favorite nail art sets for quite a long time.

I love the gold nail decals that were used in this set, they improve the simple matte look to majestic.
The Jesus nail decals are my favorite, and I think you can get them from Amazon.


6. Sheer pink and red

Want to honor the Holy Mary through your nails then you should consider these milky almonds with Holy Mary decals and gold rhinestones.

I love how the gold and red heart decals saved these sets from simplicity which should never be a thing for Catholic-themed nails.


7. Mary and rhinestones

Okay, this might just be the most majestic-looking set of long Holy Mary nails! 

I think the gold Mary statue-looking decal goes well with a soft pink ombre.

Just look at how adorable those red rhinestones look on the ring finger!


8. Catholic-Renaissance

She is pretty and easy to recreate with angel nail decals similar to this. 

The gold jewelry gave the angels a Renaissance vibe.


9. Little cross

Another simple Christian nail design that you can easily recreate, you just need steady hands and a nail brush. 

The black and white nail polish is so cute that I have been wondering what could go wrong if I switched the white to soft nude. 

The tiny crosses on the middle fingers are a good choice too.


10. Green relay



These short sets looks like royalty and I love them so much! 

I am not really a flashy person, hate attention but if I ever want to delve into that side of life I would go for these short catholic-artifact-looking nail designs.


11. Holy sugar

The sugary glitter designs on the tiny fingers of these nails are a look. 

I will be looking into getting one of these if I ever find myself longing for long nails.


12. Golden red

What is the Roman Catholic church without the red and gold (Good Friday, Palm Sunday, the Pentecost, Christmas) colors? Exactly! 

Want to match the day to the nails then think about this cute set.


13. Holy blue set

I bet you thought you would never see colors other than green, gold, and red on this list.

Well, time to wow you with this dreamy nail art.


14. Short and simple

cross nails
Short nails with little crosses? Hell yes!

The effortless look is what I love about this set.

I am already thinking I can do these nails myself and I'm serious.


15. Meet the pope


These two sets are just like you are looking at the pope on your favorite saint's feast day. 

The length of the nail color that was used is just gorgeous. Love them!


16. Angel white

Angel acrylic nails
This angelic Christian nail art is just so dreamy that you can imagine what they would like on your fingertips.

The shimmering white is so beautiful that wearing this exact design makes you feel you are in heaven.


17. Rose windows

When I mentioned my love for rose-tinted windows this was exactly what I meant. 

Get lost in this set of virgin mary nail art rose beauty.


Conclusion

And that is all we have today on 16+ Catholic-themed nail art that you should be dying to copy this season.

I am a big believer that “there is nothing wrong with wanting to blend your Christian faith with your fashion preferences as long you are not hurting anybody in the process.”

I see these types of nails like tattoos but semi-permanent ones; just the same way you would write a bible verse on your arm or wherever.
