Spring 2025 nail trends: Pastels, florals and more

A timeless white French manicure will never go out of style, but a simple way to welcome spring is by switching it up with a soft, pastel yellow hue for a fresh and cheerful twist.

How pretty and delicate is this tulip nail design? Sheer pink bases like this are all the rage right now, and when paired with nail art, it’s a surefire way to elevate your usual manicure.

If you like to incorporate colour into your nails, but not too much, these pastel accents are perfect for you. Better yet, you could achieve this design at home with just a few of your favourite shades: begin with a light pink base and carefully paint on the shapes you see above in alternating shades.

Chrome nails took off in 2024 for their ability to instantly elevate a simple one-colour manicure. The shimmering effect is subtle, but stunning when it catches the light. Give the trend a fresh spring update by opting for a soft pastel lemon or pale pink shade.

For those of you who like to keep your nails simple all year-long, consider adding a subtle chrome shimmer for spring. It might just be your new favourite!

It may seem strange to add nail art to just a few nails, but it’s actually a really simple way to give your manicure a fresh, modern feel, and break up blocky colour.

What could be more perfect for spring than these delicate two-tone painterly flowers? If lilac isn’t your shade, feel free to swap it for soft pink, yellow, or blue.

Just like the classic French manicure, but with an unexpected, blooming twist! This design looks especially stunning on almond-shaped nails, which happen to be another top trend in nail art this year.

This pastel multicoloured set would be perfect for spring and summer alike, and suits a whole range of nail shapes from square to round to almond.
