Speaking of an eye-catching design, this glow in the dark hot wheel flame design is such a stunner that it makes for a great conversation piece. You have to use a stencil to achieve this look and three different glow in the dark nail polish colors for that ombré effect.
You can purchase nail stencils for this design, but if you can’t find one especially during this time when everybody’s required to stay home, you can totally print one yourself! Find a flame stencil online and lay it out on your computer according to your paper size.
Print it out on a sticker paper and cut accordingly. It may take you a few times to get the size of the layout right to fit on your nail, but don’t worry, you’ll get there eventually and it will all be worth it!

Sprinkle on bigger glitters as you move above the layers and seal the whole thing with clear nail polish. What you will have at the end is a gorgeous look that is fitting to be in this list of top glow in the dark nail designs!
8. Two-Tone Ombré Nails
Sometimes, all you need is a simple look to make your glow in the dark nails pop. A two-tone ombré nail design is a simple yet stylish look perfect for both day and night.
You can choose any color you want for this look, and only one of them should be glow in the dark. If you choose two glow in the dark colors, you’ll just end up with a solid block of glow in the dark nails.
The ombré effect can only work if there is only one glow in the dark hue. There needs to be a transition between the plain color and the glow in the dark for the effect to take place.
You can also switch this design up by painting the glow in the dark polish at the base of your nail instead of the tip. Either way, you can’t go wrong with this design!
And that rounds up our top glow in the dark nail designs. Whether you go crazy creative or totally simple with your look, glow in the dark nails will always be fun to look at and will always be in style!
