Aries

It's no secret that Aries babies are generally strong personalities, but they also like to have fun. Try this coral Essie Nail Polish ($9) in Peach Side Baqe.

Taurus

Tauruses are determined and driven. When they commit to something, they're fully in it. Olive & June Nail Polish ($8) in JLR is super playful and statement-making, but still wearable. Nobody will miss you, or your hands.

Gemini

Gemini

Ah, Gemini, the sign of multitudes. When I think Gemini I think of green because it means so much to so many different people. Whether you see the shade as regal and sophisticated, natural and fresh, or maybe even all of the above, there's no denying that green is a statement. This Zoya Nail Polish ($10) in Stassi is a gorgeous sparkling green that looks different depending on the light. Geminis have met their match.

Cancer

Cancer

Cancer crabs are normally homebodies; they like their shell. All the Cancers I know aren't overly ostentatious, and love to be in or around the water. Is there a better shade for them than this neutral Olive & June Nail Polish ($20) in MM?

Leo

Leo

Full disclosure: I am a Leo. A common misconception about Leos is that we need to be the center of attention all the time. Here's the best way I can explain it; sometimes we love all the sparkle and glitter, and other times, we much prefer a muted neutral to get down to work. This Deborah Lippmann Gel Lab Pro Nail Color ($20) in Whatever Lola Wants perfectly highlights that dichotomy. Sometimes it looks like a basic pink, and other times the shine is blinding.

Virgo

Virgo

Virgos like things in their proper place, and they're detail oriented. Chipped nails just will not do. This Olive & June Nail Polish ($8) in CV is a classic, bright red. Plus, this formula stays on for at least seven days without chipping, so it's one less thing for a busy Virgo to worry about.

Libra

Libra

Libras are fun. They love the joy that comes with life, and they're more focused on the big picture instead of little details. They are also great lovers of beauty, and will obsess over this OPI Long Lasting Nail Polish ($13) in the shade Strawberry Margarita.

Scorpio

Scorpio

Scorpios are deep, passionate, and independent. They are not shy, but they're also quite in touch with their emotions. This Deborah Lippmann Gel Lab Nail Polish ($20) in Call Out My Name is professional and polished, but has a slightly romantic twist.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius

These people are not pack animals. They're generous, interested, free-thinkers who want to make themselves happy. They're also usually drawn to some kind of creative endeavors. And there's nothing more unique than this Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Nail Color ($4) in Coral Commotion. It's a pinky orange hue that looks a little ombre, and it's so fun.

Capricorn

Capricorn

No nonsense Capricorn is most passionate about their work. This is the sign that knows what they want and will stop at nothing to get it. They don't need crazy distractions, and if they're going to put polish on, it'll be a long-wearing, neutral shade like this OPI Long Lasting Nail Polish ($13) in Tiramisu for Two.

Aquarius

Aquarius

Aquarius are highly intelligent people who are all about balance. They can either be shy or gregarious, but they both act as great mediators, able to see all sides of an argument. They're also incredibly imaginative, and this Smith & Cult Nailed Lacquer ($18) in Sugarette is part neutral, part ethereal.

Pisces

Pisces

When you think Pisces, you think blue. A water sign that is perhaps best known for being highly in touch with their emotions means that these people live and love blue. They're gentle and affectionate, and they are incredible caretakers. This Deborah Lippmann Gel Lab Pro Nail Polish ($20) in Above the Clouds just screams Pisces.
