Lots of people paint their nails. And lots of people are content to paint their nails with a bottle of tried-and-tried Revlon. If you’re one of those people, you should know that there’s so much more out there than a coat of red or pale pink.

Across social media, amateur and professional nail artists alike have been coming up with more and more inventive styles of nail art. Some of these new designs are so elaborate they wouldn’t look out of place in a museum, like these purple acrylic beauties:

Today, we’ll be looking at the latter category. No, these nail designs aren’t very practical–if you thought making a sandwich with wet nail polish on your hands was difficult, try making one with “Teeth Nails.” But what they lack in practicality they more than make up for with creativity.

Check out 15 nail styles that aren’t about to become a trend, but definitely stand out.
