Cute Spring Nails to Try for 2020

Before saying hello to springtime, let’s make sure those cute spring nails are on point first.

Though, gold, black, and blue are still welcome, provided you keep a minimalist design.

We love the artsy striped nails. You don’t have to worry about being too precise here if you have nail tape, so you can definitely DIY it at home!

Just pick out some of your favorite colors and go for it! I suggest the different shades of purple and mauve.

Adding a solid accent color on one nail or two makes this look extra fashionable.

14. Not-so-Nude Nude Nails

If you’re a fan of neutrals and nudes, you’ll love this spring trend. It’s spring, so chances are, you’re already wearing a cute spring outfit.

And if you are, painting your nails in a neutral color like brown or beige is a great way to make your hands stand out. To make your nails really pop, go for a shiny finish; but matte browns have their own spunk, too.

15. Single White Dots

Cop these amazing nails inspired by the Oscar de la Renta show. Minimalist accents are so on trend this spring, and we just love how simple and elegant these nails are.

If you want to replicate this look, all you’ll need is some pink and white polish. Paint your nails pink and wait for them to dry.

Then carefully add a single white dot on each nail. This look works best with long almond nails.

Tip: If you aren’t a fan of pink, feel free to switch up the base color!

16. Pastel French Tips

Nudes with a splash of pastel is a great way to ease into springtime fashion. We love how Miss Pop executed this look for Oscar de la Renta’s show.

The creamy nude base with the pastel orange tips is to die for! You can totally take these stylish nails from the runway to the streets!

Tip: Feel free to experiment with your base and tip colors. Just stick with the basic formula of going with a creamy nude and pastel tips.

17. Barely There Pink Polish

One of our favorite spring nail trends this 2020 is clean and healthy nails. But every girl knows that a no-makeup look doesn’t really mean no makeup—and this principle follows with nails.

A light pink tint (think: base coat) will make it seem like you’re not wearing any polish at all, but it’ll give your nails that clean and healthy glow. A single layer is all you’ll need to achieve these pretty spring nails.

18. Pastel Yellow Nails

Don’t you love it when trends are simple and straightforward? These vibrant and creamy yellow nails scream spring but they’re also subtle enough to match with a variety of looks.

The best thing about this nail trend? You can totally work it even if you have short nails.

Tip: Dark outfits make these yellow babies really pop!

19. Easter Eggs

If you can’t get enough of pastel, you’re going to love Easter egg nails. It’s fun to mix and match pastel colors because they go so well together.

Pastel colors are also muted enough to wear every day, even if you’re sporting a different shade on each finger. To truly achieve these Easter egg nails, round out the nails when you file them.

Tip: When choosing nail colors for this look, go with classic Easter egg colors like mint green, blue, purple, yellow, and pink.

20. Dainty Spring Nails

Pale pink and bloomed flowers speak very well of spring. Get your black or white fashion pieces ready so these babies can shine like the spring sun on your nails.

A pastel shade with a hint of metallic is a great combo for spring. These gold shimmery tips by The Nail Art Babe nails this combo (no pun intended).
