Spring is finally here, bringing brighter days, fresh energy and the perfect excuse to refresh your nails! Let's get ready to embrace pastel hues, chic minimalism or a classic glossy finish. There is a spring trend to suit everyone, but beyond choosing a pretty new look, it is also important to match your nail treatment to your specific needs.
In this blog, we are going to dive into the hottest spring nail trends and help you choose the right nail treatment to keep your nails strong, healthy and beautiful all season long.
What Is In This Season?
Spring is all about fresh, soft and elegant styles. Here are the top trends for 2025 and how to make them work for you:
1. Pastel Perfection
Soft pastel shades never go out of style for spring! Think dreamy lilacs, baby blues, mint greens and buttery yellows. Perfect for a light, refreshing look.
Best treatment for this trend: A gel polish manicure ensures your pastel nails stay chip free for up to three weeks. If your nails need extra strength then consider builder gel for added durability.
2. Sheer & Glossy Nudes
Barely there, natural nails are trending with sheer pinks and milky whites giving a healthy, effortless look. Think your nails but better with a high gloss shine.
Best treatment for this trend: A BIAB (also known as Builder In A Bottle) overlay adds strength while maintaining a soft, natural look. It is ideal if you love a simple, classy style but need a little extra support.
3. French Tips with a Twist
French manicures with a modern update! Swap the classic white tips for soft pastels, metallics or a subtle ombre effect. The options for this trend are endless.
Best treatment for this trend: A gel polish manicure allows for precise, crisp tips with a flawless finish. If you are prone to breakage, builder gel can keep your nails strong while maintaining a sleek shape.
4. Simplistic Nail Art
Understated look, minimalist nail art is the perfect way to add a touch without overwhelming your manicure. Expect to see micro dots, delicate line work, tiny floral accents and single accent nails with minimalist detailing.
Best treatment for this trend: A gel manicure with hand painted nail art or stickers can bring your spring floral dreams to life.
5. Short & Squoval Nails
Gone are the days of ultra long nails, short and neatly shaped nails are having their moment! The squoval shape, which is mix of square and oval, gives a modern, clean look that works for everyday wear.
Best treatment for this trend: A strengthening manicure with IBX Nail Repair treatment is ideal for keeping natural nails strong whilst embracing a low maintenance style.
6. Dark Tones
Fan of dark nail colours? This year's Pantone Colour of the Year was Mocha Mousse, brown nails are in this season. Burgandy or red wine hues are taking over all aspects of our life and will continue into the warmer months.
