We're all looking for more ways to personalise our nail art and one stunning way is to tap into your star sign. From 23 September-22 October, Libra manis are where it's at, but what exactly does that mean for our nails?

Charming, diplomatic, kind and romantic, Libras are natural peacemakers and seek harmony and balance (that's why their symbol is the scales of justice). According to Sade Johnson, the “Astrology Vixen”: “Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty and sensuality. The element associated with Libra is air, and it shows in their superpower ability to charm and socialise with people from all walks of life.” Libras are recognised for their impressive social intelligence and they're love of beauty, art and culture.

Fellow libras: Serena Williams, Bella Hadid, Kim Kardashian, Gwyneth Paltrow, Brie Larson, Hilary Duff, Gwen Stefani

Below we've rounded up 15 Libra nails to save for your next mani appointment…
