BIAB Nail Designs Will Be Everywhere This Spring—Here’s What to Show Your Manicurist

Using a technique known as sandwiching — blending different hues to create a blurred finish — this manicure adds fresh appeal to classic pastel nail art.

A softer take on classic ombré, this subtle nail art adds intrigue to a “quiet luxury” or nude manicure.

Welcome in the next iteration of the famed glazed donut manicure, toffee glaze – iridescent and high-shine, but with more caramel and bronzed tones.

Colored French tips have taken over this season – here’s one way to switch them up with 3-D swirls and high-shine pastels.

Butter yellow has been dominating our algorithms lately and, as Cappella notes, is going to be huge for spring. “Color-wise, soft lilac, powdery pink, and butter yellow are having a major moment,” she says.

If you usually shy away from intricate nail art, spring is the perfect time to experiment with subtle florals.

Abstract lines are the most understated way to wear your manicure this spring – you can DIY at home with a fine brush (and steady hand).

If you’re torn between a maximalist and minimalist manicure, here lies your middle ground – still soft and delicate, the colored French tips add a subtle statement without veering into attention-grabbing territory.

Fans of a minimalist manicure will love this teeny-tiny evil eye nail art, which you can reimagine in different colors and styles.

As Cappella notes, there’s been a growing trend for “your nails but better” BIAB manicures of late, such as soap nails and nonicures. “These natural-looking nails have just a hint of tint and color and are created using sheer builder gels,” she shares.
