Explore some of our top picks for spring nail art ideas that you can try immediately.
Dainty Daisies
In spring, opting for flower-themed nail designs is an obvious choice. Experiment with delicate daisies against a backdrop of neat, bare nails. Introduce a touch of seasonal vibrancy by incorporating a French-tip accent nail in soft pastel pink.
Aurora Nails
Embrace the aurora nails trend this spring by choosing a lovely lavender shade. Achieve this look effortlessly at home by using iridescent polish. A recommended option is Addiction Tokyo’s “Twilight Song” Nail Polish.
Nude Chrome
Glazed donut nails remain trendy in 2024. Enhance nude nails by adding a silver chrome finish.
Coquette Pearls
The coquette look is perfect for springtime. Experiment with this trend by adorning your nails with delicate pearls, strawberry designs, and a plaid accent nail for added charm.

Abstract Chrome
Abstract chrome nails maintain their chic appeal regardless of the season. Maintain a matte base for a stylish contrast.
Groovy Pastels
There’s something about this swirling nail art that evokes the vibe of a lava lamp. For the most vibrant pastel colors, consider using shades from Pear Nova or ILNP.
Blue Gradient French
Enhance your look with a striking burst of color by opting for blue gradient French tips paired with square nails, which are currently trending.
3D Watercolor
3D nail art appears exceptionally beautiful when paired with watercolor nails.
Pearly Pink
Achieving these pearly nails might appear intricate, but they’re quite simple to do yourself. Choose a nail polish with pearl shimmer and apply a single coat. After it dries, use the polish to create dots across the nail and then swirl them in circular motions using a dotting tool. Nail artist @simlynail, who designed this pink set, offers a comprehensive tutorial you can follow.
French Tips
The nostalgia for the early 2000s remains strong in 2024. Update your high school favorites with a contemporary twist by opting for a rounded nail shape instead of square.
Pop of Sparkle
If you’re feeling tired of a gradient manicure but aren’t keen on trying other nail art styles, inject some sparkle with a glittery polish such as Olive & June’s “Exclamation Point”.
“French” Manicure
Golden-tipped nails with the words beau, amour, non, and oui? Brilliant.
Fresh Olive
Experiment with a subdued olive shade for a more refined, yet still attention-grabbing, variation of last year’s slime trend.
