Five Nail Trends You Need to Try This Spring

Spring is the season for renewal, fresh starts, colours and joy. And what better way to express that than with a fresh new set of nails to embrace this time of the year? After a winter of moody blues and darker colours, Spring 2022 is sure to be the pick-me-up that all manicures need. This season, we’re experimenting not only with vibrant colours and playful patterns but also with 3D textures and nail gems that are surely here to stay for a while.

Metallic and chrome nails have been resurfacing lately, embellishing the hands of a few celebrities now. Opt for a metallic silver like Kourtney Kardashian for that rocker-chic feel or go for a pop of colour like Dua Lipa’s purple chromatic nails (which have now been changed to orange chromatic), or even a dark green like Selena Gomez. Either way, this edgy style is sure to add some shine to any look.

Over the past years, nail art has become progressively more experimentative and creative. As we continue to explore many surrealistic designs and ways to decorate our nails, it is only natural that this trend progresses towards more outlandish designs, such as 3-dimensional nail art. From once liquid chrome drips, to bubbles, gems and pearls, there is an array of styles to choose from to give your nails that extra height.

If you haven’t noticed, hot pink is back. And what better way to dip your toe into this trend than by starting off with Barbie pink nails? These bright pink colours are taking off in all sorts of shapes and forms, merging all trends together into one, from pink french tips to 3D designs and chrome. 

There's nothing classier than a simple clean manicure with a subtle glossy look. This trend follows the “clean girl” aesthetic that is driving TikTok content and resonates with the “no makeup makeup look”. Go for slightly rosy or peachy shades, or even neutral white hues for an extra clean finish.
