As someone whoโs always on the lookout for the next cute nail trend, Iโve curated a list that not only will elevate your nail game but also bring a little spring cheer to your everyday routine. This post is all about cute spring nails.
Mermaid-Themed Nails
These might be the prettiest nails I have ever seen. They look so dainty and elegant. The 3D details create a sense of texture. Perfect for your next vacation and to channel your inner siren.
This type of design can be very hard to DIY, which is why I found these cute mermaid press-on nails on Amazon.
Sleek Silver
Silver doesnโt necessarily scream spring. But picture these nails with a colorful outfit: the perfect mix of cute and edgy.
To achieve this look, I recommend these Glamnetic press-on nails.
Watercolor Nails
Canโt decide on a single color? Then watercolor nails are the way to go. They have an airbrushed look and immediately make me think of cotton candy. This style can also be customized depending on which color you want to be highlighted more.
Marbled Tips
Want to try a unique style? Go for marbled tipsโeach tip is completely different. And the best part? It can be an easy DIY.
Chrome 3D Nails
Chrome 3D nails are trending right now; for good reason, they are modern and playful. Regardless of the color combination, youโll have chic and unique nails.
French Illusion
Just like the name states, this nail design gives the illusion of a French tip without using a different color.
Colorful French Style
Looking for a fun spring nail design? Add a pop of color to an otherwise classic style. The best spring-themed press-on nails I found are Confetti Glammentic.
Aura Nails
Aura nails are very similar to watercolor nails but have a different vibe. They are funkier and itโs the perfect way to add more color to your life.
Sunset Inspired
In my head, pastel pink and peach are the colors of spring and summer. This sunset ombre is the perfect spring nails design to show off at brunch or at a work happy hour.
Bedazzled Bliss
If you love a touch of sparkle, then this nail style is for you. Add some colorful or neutral gems and upgrade a set of rose pink or peachy nude nails. The touch of color makes this nail design perfect for springtime. This nail style can be easy to DIY, just order colorful rhinestones and get a neutral non-toxic nail polish.
