Eye-Catching Nail Art Trends
After a pretty tumultuous 18 months of lockdowns, restrictions, and un-manicured hands, spring is all about positivity, fresh starts, and getting your nail game back! A few months of nail-recovery from ripping off shellac when lockdown boredom kicked in, there’s never been a better time to revive and feel alive than with a brand new look with trending nail art design.
Trends from the nail world this spring include natural shapes, colour blocking, and major 70’s curve vibes. Whether you’re still doing the at-home manicure or can finally head to your local salon, you’ll want to keep these on file to keep inspired for the warmer months ahead!
Watermelon Sugar
This nail art trend is too gorgeous not to include. It’s all about fruity colours that inspire the feeling of summer, beach, and all-round good times! There isn’t a person who wouldn’t stop you in the street to compliment you on these finger-licking good nails.
French tip revamp
If we’ve taken anything from transforming old school nail styles, it’s the reinvention of the French tip! This has been one the more simple yet hottest trends in the nail art world in 2021, with springtime only evolving the wintery black tips to a pastel-inspired coloured tip like these ones! Pick a colour you love to wear in the spring and match with your tips to complement your wardrobe.
It’s Wavy Baby
If 2021 has proven anything, it’s that the 70s and 80s are getting their own delicious resurgence in fashion and now in nail art! These free flowing waves and disco curves are all about adding some funk to your nail style – why not show these to your nail technician and add your own flavour to it?
Colour Block it!
It’s time to come out of lockdown no holds barred, and that means having a strong colour blocking nail game to boot. You can create this nail art trend at home with some masking tape over dried sections of your nail and add your own asymmetrical shapes! Getting creative is what it’s all about this season and these nails will definitely show off your artist flair.
Illuminating Illusions
Flexing a nude nail never goes out of style, but spring can be a great opportunity to add a happy-go-lucky feature to your classic colours. Neutrals look fabulous on any skin tone and with any nail shape, why not get creative with the look and add some hearts, flowers or thin wavy lines to your nude look? This is where traditional colours meet personality!
Accessorise This!
We love a good accessory when we see it – and these nail art designs are no exception! If you’re looking for some extra glam on the nail game and bring it to 100, there’s nothing more extravagant than adding some jewels to the look.
