Spring is here, and you know what that means: pollen is everywhere, my head feels like it’s about to explode and if I rub my itchy eyes anymore, I’m not going to have any eyeballs. Maybe I should just get a yellow manicure so I can blend in. But I digress.
It’s also time to ditch the moody winter shades and embrace nails that scream, “I have my life together!” (Even if you absolutely do not.) Whether you’re in it for the pastel overload, the floral explosion, or just looking for an excuse to add some ridiculous but adorable art to your nails, I’ve got you covered. Let’s hop into the cutest Easter and Spring nail trends that will have your hands looking like an actual Pinterest board.
Easter Eggs
First up are nails that are just in time for Easter. The key word for this style is “matte” just like an Easter egg. The matte finish adds that extra level of sophistication because we want modern and chic, not childish. This translates into matte baby blues, soft lilacs, buttery yellows, minty greens and sweet pinks. The happy colors we associate with Easter eggs actually symbolize renewal, hope, and the undeniable fact that everything looks cuter in pastel.
Flowers
Spring is basically the Earth’s way of saying, “My bad for all that seasonal depression. Here, have some flowers.” After months of cold, gray misery, the ground wakes up, plants start blooming, and suddenly, life feels slightly less unbearable. Why not capture that floral magic on your nails?
Single Color
If you are shy about going full out flowers, you can just do two or a few nails and do them in one color. It’s subtle but very pretty and gets you in on the trend without feeling hippy dippy. I even have an option of a few green leaves which is my personal favorite.

Coming up Daisies
Daisies are to Spring what pumpkin spice is to Fall: absolutely everywhere. And for good reason! They’re cute, they’re cheerful, and they give off major “frolicking in the fields” energy. Daisy nail designs are a perfect mix of minimal and playful. Plus, daisies symbolize innocence and purity, which is hilarious because your nails may be the only thing about you that fits that description.
Everything was definitely coming up daisies as I saw these daisy nails all over the internet. Whether you go for a soft nude base with tiny white daisies, two daisy nails with a bumblebee or a mix of daisies with bright colors, you really can’t go wrong. Some were on just a few nails and some were full blown but daisies are definitely a thing this Spring.
Multi-Color
Multi-color floral nails are the perfect way to welcome the season while pretending you have a green thumb (spoiler alert: you don’t, but your nails don’t have to know that). Think delicate petals in pinks, purples, yellows, and greens that look like tiny masterpieces on your fingertips. Bonus: floral designs hide chips like a dream, meaning you can go an extra few days before admitting you need a touch-up.
If you don’t have a significant other, use this trend and give yourself all of the flowers. Every time you look at your nails, you’ll smile. I know I will.
Artistic and Fun
Once upon a time, a single accent nail was considered “bold.” Fast forward to now, and nail art has become a full-blown competitive sport. People are out here treating their nails like tiny canvases, and honestly? I respect it.
The rise of social media has fueled this trend, with everyone trying to one-up each other in the nail game. It started with simple designs, and now we have 3D embellishments, abstract art, and nails that look like they belong in a museum. Spring is the perfect excuse to go all out—think rainbow swirls, checkerboard, pastel marble effects, and anything that screams, “I had way too much fun at the nail salon.”
If your nails don’t make people stop and say, “OMG, let me see those!”—are you even doing it right?

So if you needed an excuse to book that nail appointment, I’ve given you forty. Whether you go for the soft elegance of matte Easter egg shades, the delicate beauty of flowers, or the sheer chaos of over-the-top nail art, one thing is certain: your hands are about to look phenomenal. Now go book that appointment before your nail tech’s schedule fills up—because let’s be real, nothing says “I have my life together” quite like a fresh set of Spring nails. And don’t forget those toes!
See ya next time.
